The Arches - 1983

I took this shot of Scott Balcom back in 1983 during one of our highline sessions at The Arches. Situated under a freeway over pass near the Rose Bowl, this walk was quite exhilarating. As you can see...there is a lot of air to look at while your slacklining across. The guy in the background belaying Scott is none other that Chango Chuck. Having him around truly added to the drama. FYI - We did get busted by the police doing this once. Scott's mom was a South Pasadena police dispatcher, however, so we got off with a warning.
