A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    Aww, she looks so pretty 🙂 She was up for aaaaaages, so i’ve got some awesome video footage of that suspension too.

    FlamingFist: you can get pretty cheap flights to the england from ireland with the budget airlines, so I’m sure it wouldn’t be that difficult to figure out coming over here to suspend.

    Post 11, J – I wonder that myself why people get suspended, its one I simply cannot see.
    If its to fly like an angel, you could simply be in a harness, or to stand the pain, just not sure.
    Could someone who has been suspended explain it plz? 🙂

    This was by far my favourite Suspension.
    I was totally flying in another world. And it made up for my previous attempt that i failed.
    Thanx Vampy and the Norwich crew.
    People that havnt suspended b4, just go to a meet, and watch it happen in person, and ul experience all the emotion and excitement first hand. It really is amazing.
