How High?

It’s time again to check in with our friends in the Moscow based Sinner Team.  The last time we saw the gang, they had 5 of their members lined up with hooks ready to suspend.  Not just any suspension mind you, the suspension that the Sinner Team has put on the map, the free fall suspension.  So far most of the photos we’ve seen of their free falls have been from the ground, so it’s been hard to get a good idea of just how high up they’re jumping from.  Well, here’s a couple of photos that might put a knot in your gut.

And as a little bonus, here’s the latest trailer for their Free Fall Suspension film.

Curling up with Misty

We’ve seen Misty on ModBlog a couple of times.  Whether it’s the scars she has, the ones she’s done, or her suspensions, ModBlog is always proud to show her off.  I had the pleasure of meeting her a few months back, and she’s just an incredible person inside and out.  Members of the suspension community know her from Hooklife, the Suspension.org equivalent of ModBlog, where she manages to keep her finger on the pulse of the suspension community.  In the past she’s helped me out with a couple of suspension related stories, and I can’t thank her enough for what she’s done.  Recently Big Mike from Hooked Suspension wrote a guest article on Misty, sharing his thoughts about this wonderful person.  Here’s a bit of what Mike had to say…

From an outsiders prospective it’s easy to see how busy she is and how hard it must be for her to keep up. She fills her days as a body piercer and from what I’ve seen an outstanding scarification artist at Southtown Tattoo & Body Piercing in Fort Smith Arkansas. She is also plays a major role in the running of her suspension team, Hanging City Suspensions. Theirs is one of the most friendly groups I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with and anybody else who has had the experience I’m sure would say the same. They did an amazing suspension show at the Freaks & Fetish, Dallas SusCon opening party that had Misty herself suspending TWICE in the same evening. It was beautiful and amazing to watch. I also had the pleasure to work with her team frequently throughout SusCon weekend and these guys are great at what they do and seem willing to always keep learning new things.

And here’s Misty at her most recent suspension with Hanging City Suspensions

She looks so serene, embraced by nature, not burdened by anything, including gravity.

Taking it easy

Well, for Supa this is easy, for anyone else, it’s a bit of a challenge.  What Supa is doing is a modified invisible chair suspension, with 5 hooks located in his left knee, left bicep, right calf, right elbow, and the nape of his neck.  Definitely some interesting hook placements for this type of suspension.

You can see more of this suspension in the Kaptive8 Suspension Krew gallery.

Hanging out at BMEFest 2011

We’re starting to get pictures from BMEFest 2011 sent into the galleries, and this first one comes from Tobias and it features his very first suspension.  Cere from ROP facilitated the suspension, but he wasn’t alone in helping Tobias get off the ground.  With the support of everyone around, especially that of the photographer, Miss McShady, Tobias managed to get in the air and had an incredible experience.  This photo below sums up not only his suspension, but also the general vibe of the weekend.  Good friends enjoying the company of others, and having a lot of fun.

Oh, and in case you’ve never been to a BME event before, this close-up should give you an idea of just what kind of fun was had.

Yes, that is a double ended dildo.

Keep an eye out for more photos from the party!

There were a lot of great moments from the 2011 Dallas Suscon, one of which was this suspension from the ihung.org crew.  If I recall correctly, this is Drew from ihung, and he suspended pretty early on in the weekend.  The dome he’s in is ihung’s portable suspension rigging, which can set up pretty much anywhere they want to suspend someone, without having to find a building or a tree.

The gang’s all here

When it comes to free fall suspensions, the Sinner Team has it down to a science.  This being one of the most dangerous suspensions, it’s best not to even think of attempting it unless you’ve done a LOT of homework and have a lot of experience not only with suspensions, but with rigging and rope climbing.  With Stanislav and Elena having taken the plunge, the rest of the team lined up for their own turns jumping off the bridge.

Now, they haven’t sent in any photos of the crew’s jumps, but they have put a copy of the trailer for their free fall suspension film online.  The film is set to premiere at Oslo Suscon, so those of you attending, be sure to keep an eye out for it.  I’ve also got a video in my inbox from Stanislav that I haven’t had a chance to look at yet, but when I do I’ll be sure to upload it to BME so everyone can check it out.  In the meantime, check out the trailer below.
