More Gibbon Slacklining in Vibram FiveFingers

Slacklining has become another pass time since beginning my FiveFingered journey over the passed 6 months. I had a chance to meet some of team Gibbon. Although I wasn't quite ready for some of the tricks they were pulling, I was able to make it across the Jibline to win a t-shirt. Now I get to advertise for them... Oh, wait. I've already been doing that.
Gibbon Slacklines and Vibram FiveFingers are a match made in heaven. Other than going barefoot, I can't imagine a better footwear choice, great line/foot sensitivity, ability to wrap toes round strap, promotes good balance. In 'Running Barefoot,' Michael Sandler recommends building core strength for more controlled running. While reading his book, slacklining kept coming to mind as a great way to accomplish this. I better get out and slackline more often.
