Summary

Highlining Balance explores the captivating world of highlining, where athletes walk across narrow webbing suspended hundreds of feet in the air. It delves into the unique blend of physical skill and mental fortitude required to succeed in this extreme sport. The book reveals how highlining is as much a mental discipline as it is a physical one, requiring athletes to cultivate unwavering focus and manage fear.

 
Highlining is not just about balance; mastering the art of focused attention and cultivating a deep sense of inner stability are paramount to conquering the challenges posed by highlining. The book progresses from the foundational elements of highlining—including equipment and biomechanics—to the psychological and physiological demands of the sport. It examines the impact of environmental factors like wind and altitude, and it integrates insights from sports psychology, neuroscience, and mindfulness.

 
You'll discover how athletes train their minds to overcome fear, manage anxiety, and maintain unwavering concentration under immense pressure. Ultimately, Highlining Balance reveals how the principles of focus, stability, and mental resilience learned through highlining can be applied to other areas of life, enhancing both professional performance and personal well-being.

Everest the Hard Way - The first...

Chris Bonington

Everest – the highest peak in the world, the ultimate challenge to a mountaineer’s skill and endurance. It had been climbed before, but never like this. Chris Bonington and his team had ambitions to climb it – the hard way. Yet before Bonington and his team set out in August 1975, even their well-wishers gave them only a fifty–fifty chance of success. The South West Face of Everest had already defeated five expeditions, including one led by Bonington himself. Everest the Hard Way is an exhilarating story of courage, endurance and teamwork. Bonington’s narrative celebrates the big moments and recreates the excitement and danger of the climb with vivid immediacy. He shares the logistical problems involved in keeping a large expedition moving, and the very real psychological ones of balancing and pairing lead climbers and giving each a chance to make the route on the face. He describes the constant avalanche threat which made the Western Cwm more dangerous than the ever-treacherous Ice Fall, and explains how lowering the sites of camps 4 and 5 solved a supply problem and kept the upward momentum for the attack on the notorious thousand-foot-tall Rock Band at 27,000 feet which had barred the way to the summit for all previous attempts. How Bonington’s team climbed on Everest in 1975 bears no relation to how Everest is climbed fifty years on, with endless resources and helicopter support. It was much riskier in 1975. Weather forecasts were threadbare and, although equipment was improving, it was much more basic than today, so the risk of frostbite was much greater for mountaineers in the 1970s. These climbers, the best of their generation, were leading hard new ground in the only style which gave them a meaningful chance of success. Chris Bonington’s Everest the Hard Way is a beautiful, fascinating and tragic story of their legendary achievement.
