Gibbon Slacklines has officially launched in the UK, introducing two flagship products: the Giboard and the SlackRack.

Founded by Robert Kaeding in 2007, the company has been instrumental in popularising slacklining – similar to tightrope walking – around the world. The Giboard is a balance board designed to challenge stability, strength, and coordination. The SlackRack is a free-standing frame designed for indoor slacklining practice.

Gibbon has also launched its SlackFit programmes. Kaeding says these programmes aim to bring fitness, therapy and fun to group exercise routines and promise a new offering for venues and providers. The programmes comprise Energy, Core, and Strength offerings. They integrate slackline exercises with cardio intervals, targeted core engagement and muscle strengthening, for a holistic workout experience.

Kaeding says: “Individuals can improve their balance, coordination and core strength, while enhancing flexibility, agility and mental focus.”
