The Fort William Mountain Festival hosted a historic coming together of some of the world's most devoted and skilled slackliners. These "slackers" gathered in Scotland to compete for the title of International Slack Master of 2008. Along with the title came the promise of over $3000 worth of cash and prizes to ensure a sizzling competitive fire. With the continuously progressive evolution of slackline style and frequent updates of the purposed physical limits of the sport-- no one knew what types of talent to expect.
