CHENGDU, June 11 (Xinhua) -- A French slackline walker has unerringly crossed The Soul of Minya Konka in China's Sichuan Province on a webbing on Saturday.
Five world' s top athletes from abroad and one Chinese athlete challenged the slackline-walk at Hailuogou of Minya Konka (Mont Gongga) in Sichuan province. Only French slackline walker Nathan PAULIN succeeded.
Hailuogou of Minya Konka is the only Glacier Forest Park as well as National Geological Park in China. Located at the foot of Minya Konka, a slackline, 820 meters long and 3,600 meters high above sea level, was set up across the glacier. Challengeable and magnificent, this slackline walk route was officially named "the Soul of Minya Konka" .
Zhang Liang, the only Chinese athlete who didn' t manage it, said: "Slackline still has a long way to go in China. I hope there will be more Chinese slackline walkers in future. "
