I tried something something recently I'd never even heard of before. It's called slack roping. One of my daughter's friends who was a foreign exchange student from Germany showed me "the ropes". It's not actually a rope, it's an inch wide and it's made out of nylon webbing. Unlike a tightrope that is stretched tightly, a slackline is allowed to hang slack. It's purpose is to strenghten your core muscles and improve balance. Once you've mastered the balance part you master tricks.
Nieltz showed off his talent and made it look pretty darn easy. So, I tried it. It was SO hard! I tried to let go of Nieltz' hand but that proved to be a bad idea. 
It's always fun to try something new, even if you have no desire to do it EVER again!
