Slacklining vs Tightrope Walking.

Nik Wallenda crossed the Grand Canyon like this. It was a slow step by step crossing.

Here several attractive ladies slacklining at Yosemite. One is even doing the splits.

No slacking! Fearless female higliners perform jawdropping moves 3,300 feet...

Which looks more dangerous and exciting?

Is Nik Wallenda too old school compared to the current slackliners?

Slacklining

Slacklining is a practice in balance that typically uses nylon or polyester webbing tensioned between two anchor points. Many people suggest slacklining is distinct from tightrope walking in that the line is not held rigidly taut (although it is still under some tension); it is instead dynamic, stretching and bouncing like a long and narrow trampoline. The line’s tension can be adjusted to suit the user and different types of webbing can be used to achieve a variety of feats.
