I saw people doing this at REI (our local co-op sporting goods store) and thought it looked too much like the dreaded balance beam from high school gymnastics. After watching this video, I can't wait to try it! What a great way to firm core muscles and prevent falls (well, after you get good at it, that is :-) Thanks for the great tips!

I start with a lot of these basics when I introduce people and sometimes need a refresher myself now and then... When I'm having a bad day on the line, I go back to the basics and just repeat "BALANCE" on each step...

That is the secret to slacklining." I must admit, when I had a mustache I was a much better slackliner, but shaved it off so I could be more aerodynamic for aerial flips. The trade-off was worth every second of retraining myself to slackline without a mustache. Also, another great and useful tip from Frankie Najera: “Grow a mustache.
