"Urban Highline Festival 2010" is the second edition of the slackline festival in Lublin. Last year there was a 60m long highline 50m above the ground in the center of the city. In a park they set up 30m long tree-highline and couple slacklines for everyone.

This year in plans are:

- 3 highlines from 20m up to 50m long above the main square,
- trickline, longline, speedline, high-jump competitions,
- meeting and highlining together with 6 special guests: Jerry Miszewski (USA), Bernhard Witz (CH), Jakub Kveton Hanus - "Kwjet Oslaf" (CZ), Jordan Tybon (USA), Faith Dickey (USA) and Jan Galek (PL)

Main organizers of the slackline festival are: Rafal Sadownik (PL), Jan Galek (PL), Jordan Tybon (USA) and Faith Dickey (USA)

We are still working on the details of the competitions putting everything together, but for today we know already some sponsors of the event.

Prizes for the trickline contest and trickline competition will be sponsored by Gibbon.

For the longline competition there will be possibility to win some nice equipment from Jerry's company: Balance Community.

On the main webstie of the festival you can find already official rules of the competitions in Polish and English and picture gallery from the last year. In a next few days we'll add exact localizations, bios of the special guests.
