Solo Rig World Record
390m on Y2k
Rig- 9hr 14min
Sent in 11 minutes and 11 seconds
This was a big moment for me. Recently Iāve started to consider what I want to accomplish in my life and what I really care about. Highlining is one of those things. Itās most of what I think about these days. Itās most of what I dream about these days. Some nights I donāt sleep because Iām too preoccupied with thoughts of putting a 1ā piece of plastic in the sky in so many different ways.
I became interested in the idea of solo rigging this summer when I didnāt have any other highliners around to help. I rigged a handful of freestyles on my own, but knew I could take it so much farther.
After several setbacks over the last couple months, I was so determined to attempt the solo rig nothing was going to stop me. Last Friday I decided rain or shine I would rig the line. I sure didnāt get any shine. It was 38 degrees F and so foggy I couldnāt see 100ft in any direction - not the conditions you want when rigging a line, especially solo. The mountain slopes were a slip and slide making the seemingly perfect spot more on the treacherous side. I think I shivered half of that day - the other half I was hiking gear up and down the mountain. In 9hrs and 14minutes, I was able to rig the longest highline ever to be rigged by an individual. This was a wake up moment. Iāve got so much more to give and I canāt wait for whatās in store. Thank you to everyone Iāve met on this journey.
One for the books!šš What a special and unique opportunity we just experienced as a crew!ā¤ļø

2 states. 2 different winters. Southwest and west coast. Whether we have snow at Colorado mountains or a sandy warm beach at Santa Monica, we always stay barefoot. Our movie āDanger do not look outā took me to the United States on a film tour showcasing slacklining movies. The sport is just getting bigger, recognized, organized. And the filmmakers/slackliners are portraying and sharing stories about crazy waterfall rigging or lines that are just beautifully scary as hell.
I felt so honored to be there and to discover that the communities, regardless of the place in the globe, are so welcoming. Everyone Iāve met on the trip has been so nice!
And of course, weāve done a good amount of highlining!
Big ups to Logan Henning @da_logster for the organizarion! I heartily wish the tour a long and exciting future š¤

Alpine highlining takes a myriad of skills and a heart full of stoke. When you finally summit carrying a heavy pack, with ripping wind and chossy rock, only to realize the game has just begun. Walking on what feels like the top of the world at 13,600ā was such a dream! #alpinehighline
We were blessed to spend some time with @danicascales this week as he visits for the @communityhighlines film tour.
The connections that this sport creates is unbelievable. We share a common passion & that invites community.
I hope as this sport grows, it becomes known for the wonderful humans who participate in it. We have an opportunity to keep pushing for shared experiences that are welcoming and full of genuine care for one another.
Dani is a great example of a kind soul - bringing with him not just a passion for film making but also a joyful heart who clearly wants to make others feel known - he offered to make us dinner too! (Which was delicious btw)
All that said - letās keep up the good work & keep doing what we love - together
Last day to submit your thigh line film to the Anchor Point Film Tour! We have already received so many amazing submission and we are looking forward to seeing your last minute submission as well! Follow the link in bio to submit your film:)

With big lines, some moments feel easy and others donāt, and thatās just part of it. You learn to expect the unknown, stay willing to adapt, and trust the process anyway.

Honestly, this was one of the best sessions highlining has to offer, and personally one of my favorites. Thereās something unreal about believing in yourself and your crew, even when youāre not totally sure itās the ārightā answer in the long run⦠but you know enough, youāve planned enough, and you give it a go
ā¢
And the truth is, the difficulties are what make you stronger. Working through the challenges together is its own kind of dance and when it clicks, itās a damn beautiful one. Youāve gotta stay composed, focused, and calm in the middle of the adversity, and thatās where the growth happens

This line had its moments, like every big line does but damn, was it a beautiful experience. And an even more stunning line!
