RE: Discovering Crete, Part 1 - Agiofárango, the Gorge of Saints I
Dear @shaka,
I am so happy you visited my island :)
I hope you had a fantastic time, and I am so looking forward for your new posts and images!
I am not sure if you know, but last year some slackliners visited Agiofarago and you can see here how a slack liner looks, at 180m, during sunset colors :)
I hope I would have known earlier you would visit Crete (maybe I could give some extra advise :))
In any case, I look forward for more of your Cretan Tales!
Be well & Alles Gute,
Katerina
Hi Katerina,
how awesome to get a reply from an actual Cretan :)
The two weeks on your island have been fantastic indeed. And I think that I really picked the best season for my visit. It was not too hot, the sea already warmed up a bit and a lot of plants and bushes still blooming. And the food...mmmh...:)
Thanks for the link to the slackliners. Absolutely impressive. You will see the very same place in my next post. Well, you are probably more than familiar with that spot anyway.
All the best & und auch Dir alles Gute :)
Shaka
Slacklining
Slacklining refers to the act of walking or balancing along a suspended length of flat webbing that is tensioned between two anchors. Slacklining is similar to slack rope walking and tightrope walking. Slacklines differ from tightwires and tightropes in the type of material used and the amount of tension applied during use. Slacklines are tensioned significantly less than tightropes or tightwires in order to create a dynamic line which will stretch and bounce like a long and narrow trampoline.
