Slackline...

A what you say?

It's this thing Rik watched a bunch of how to's on the internet and figured out how to make. It's some webbing used for climbing and carabineers and some knots - all made into a tightrope like configuration and the kids LOVE this! They have spent several hours trying to balance on it and walk like the guys in the videos (who are amazing - they jump and flip without effort - I can barely stand on it with people helping me!) Hopefully you can see these pictures - they are cell phone shots...

This is the set up for any who are interested. Direct all questions to Rik about this!

And our family trying to balance - both kids actually really good at this - well, actually everyone but me!

As you can see - I'm the lame-o that still needs help balancing!
