Thanks to Bena for this photo of a gorgeous rigging job (one of many) done at the recent Oslo Wings of Desire suscon. It may not involve nuts, but it’s much prettier than BME/HARD-style suspensions.

- Tethered in Timeby JonathonSome suspensions are planned down to the last detail—others arise suddenly, yet carry just as much meaning. For Kyle and Aly, what began as a spontaneous idea became a deeply symbolic expression of shared history and emotional connection. The number of hooks told a story… Read more: Tethered in Time
- Held by Hooks, and Each Otherby JonathonFacilitators and practitioners—the very people who bring so many suspensions to life—often pour their energy into others, quietly setting aside their own opportunities. Brenton and Brittany are one such example. Traveling all the way from Houston, TX, they came to the Ontario Suspension Convention not… Read more: Held by Hooks, and Each Other

- Suspended, Not Silencedby JonathonThere’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
- A Nightbird’s Passageby JonathonSome stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized. Even after 15 years, Robb knew there was still a suspension experience waiting for him. Something left unfinished, something essential. At the Ontario… Read more: A Nightbird’s Passage
- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal. Stepping into this experience isn’t simply about trying something new, but about stepping outside yourself to a version you had always sensed was waiting. I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul

I just saw a similar suspension today, but it was only one person, with 28 hooks. Same style as above, but with 8 front, 8 back, 6 each leg(3 inner, 3 outer per leg), the innner ones were used to corset the legs then pulled tight by the outer hooks. (I believe the artist said 30 so I may have forgotten where two of the hooks were.) It was at the Slinging Ink Tattoo Expo in San Antonio. My wife is a tattooist (She’s at Ace Tattoos in San Antonio, TX). I’m just a collector fine skin art myself. I plan to try suspension soon.
