“X-man” is the founder of Absolute Slacklines and Slacklining Canada. He has been practising slacklining for over 5 years now and even though he loves all branches of slacklining, he focuses more on tricklining and Slackline Yoga. Slacklining was for him a “love at first sight affair,” while watching a yogi performing yoga on a slackline several years ago in Montreal. Since then, slacklining has become his ultimate passion. He is also the founder of Slackline Vancouver and has extensive experience teaching beginners to improve their slacklining skills and technique. One of his main accomplishments has been to spread the sport all over Canada and South America as well as contributing to the creation of an integral slacklining community that includes people from all ages, backgrounds and professions without distinction. “Slacklining is indeed one of the best meditations I’ve tried so far, a ‘meditation in movement’ since you really have to focus all your attention and effort on your whole body, your breath, and your mind has little or no time to think; then and only then, you may experience a Satori.” ~ Xavier

Aaron My name is Aaron and I have been slacklining just over 6 years now. I was introduced to the sport through a friend and enjoyed the challenge the line had to offer. I quickly became addicted to the sport, although 5 years ago, it was just beginning to progress as a sport. Over the years, I followed the evolution of slacklining learning all types of movements. I have walked 40 foot lines, practiced yoga, eaten breakfast on the line, surfed over a canyon with a 40 foot drop to certain death, and thrown down endless tricks for hours on the beach. I have a love for the sport and my main objective is to share it with you. I spent the past 2 summers teaching the benefits of slacklining on Mount Seymour in North Vancouver to kids of all ages. I am available for teaching and demonstrations for events, group, or private lessons. I have a deep love for the sport and the physical, mental, and emotional benefits it has provided me. I am in the best shape of my life and I account the slackline for it. Additional skills: Hula hoops, Cyr Ring, Highlining.
