Focus!  If you have poor balance and are afraid of heights, then just move on.  Slacklining is not for you.  Even though you are tethered to the slackline, somehow the mind loses track of that fact when you are hundreds of meters in the air.  Today, height and distance records exceed 2 km (1.2 miles) at a height over 200 meters (660 feet). There are four main disciplines including waterlining, highlining, longlining and tricklining.
