...recovering from the Maverick UK Slacklining Championships at Windfest

Last weekend, I was lucky enough to be looking after the PR for my boss's event, Windfest.



My boyfriend, Sam's company Maverick Slacklines chose Windfest to host the very first UK Slacklining Championships. So in between greeting press and photographers, I watched the semi-finals and finals. Now, I had seen the guys slacking at events over the past year but I didn't realise how much they had stepped up and the tricks and combos they were landing just completely blew me away.

I'm so darn proud of the lot of them for pulling this off and for showing how talented the UK slackers are.
