About us
The association "Slacklions - Slackline Zürich" was founded on June 1, 2012 and has just over 100 members (as of 2018).
We are in constant contact with Grünstadt Zurich to keep slacklining legal in the city parks and to work out good solutions in this area - especially with regard to tree protection. We offer a weekly indoor slackline training at the Kanti Stadelhofen. In talks with the water police we have achieved that waterlining over the Limmat (near Dynamo) has been legalized (only for association members). When the weather is nice, we meet regularly for outdoor slackline trainings. In cooperation with Grünstadt Zurich we were able to work out the legalization of highlining in the forest at Stöckentobel. Our association also organizes one or two club weekends a year where slacklining is the focus, but other sports also find their place.
The Slacklions are a member of the umbrella organization "Swiss Slackline". We are actively involved in various projects of the association, such as the development of solutions with the FOCA (Federal Office of Civil Aviation) to report highlines on flight obstacle charts. Also, we have already organized the Swiss Slackline Championship twice.
You can support our work and be part of all activities by joining the association. The annual membership fee of 50.- CHF covers our expenses.
