Walking the path
Slacklining is a dare-devil
sport, for beginners it is important to have a calm mind
The best way to start an
adventure is by a single thought. It's time to take the leap of faith, hold on
to that rope or the feeling that nothing in unconquerable and plunge. Adventure
is addictive. And the thrill begins when we enter unknown territory taking a
big chance and encounter a feeling of achievement, bidding good bye to fear of
heights, water, speed and nothing else that is holding us back. On this page,
we have chosen two well known adventure sports -Slacklining and Mountain
Biking. If you like to start off your tryst with something easy, opt for scuba
diving, bungee jumping, hiking, trekking and slowly build up your apetite for
larger than life sports like WingSuit Flying, Bouldering and more. Guess it is
time to make beautiful memories of this lifetime!
SLACKLINING
Region: Rio de Janeiro;
Sardina & French Alps
Don't be puzzled by this
dangerous looking adventure sport. Slacklining resembles slack rope walking and
tightrope walking as the line is held under tension. The lines are tensioned to
create a dynamic line with stretch and bounce like a long and narrow
trampoline.
Top three scenic places to slackline:
Gavea Stone, Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil:
High above Rio, with your
slackline set up over the Gavea Stone, you'll get a gorgeous view of the city
on a clear day, or an incredible view of the clouds.At night, you'll see the
city light up. And the ocean? It will only inspire you.
Cala Goloritzè Beach, Sardinia, Italy:
On the secluded beach Cala
Goloritzè on the coast of Sardinia, there's an incredible rock feature perfect
for rigging your line just above the water.Time it right, and you'll get a
great view of the sunset while you slack.
French Alps, France:
Who said slacklining was
just for warmer climates? Set up anywhere you can find among the French Alps
and you'll get to look at the gorgeous snow-capped mountains the entire time.
