Masters of Slack

Bouncing on a slackline Jaan Roose and Andy Lewis have probably had more ups and downs in their lives than most other people. These two very different personalities are united by a deep love of their sport and a conviction that wearing clothes is sometimes overrated.

Jaan, who comes from the isolated forests of Setumaa in Estonia, is a natural slacklining talent. He became one the world’s top athletes in just five years – eventually surpassing Andy, the “Godfather of Slacklining”, who had dominated the competition scene before deciding to celebrate “slacklife” instead.

HelliVentures shot the portrait of these two contrasting characters and their lifestyles which proves you’ll never find your balance by standing still.
