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.

Giving in, in the great outdoors.

Summer is here, and you know what that means……beautiful tranquil outdoor suspensions!

Like, for example, this resurrection suspension set up by my friends in ihung.  Check out that rigging plate, besides being a good way to plug the group name, it is also providing a nice support for this young lady to hold onto after coming down from her suspension.

To see her suspending, and to fully see the tranquil setting, keep on keeping on.

That handsome bearded man is Jason, a man who deserves a lot of credit for his contributions to the suspension community over the last several years.

PS: If you would like to partake in a beautiful outdoor piercings yourself, the upcoming ROP Campout in Pittsfield, Mass. would be a good time to do so.

    beautiful.

    that bottom shot would have been gorgeous if jason wasn’t tucked in the corner. not down-playing the importance of his work or support, it just slightly takes away from the photo and scenery.
