STORY
MISSION
VISION
MESSAGE
I remember vividly practicing handstands in our apartment’s hallway (don’t ask me to pull one now) during my upbringing in Abu Dhabi (mid 90s), there weren’t any training options in schools and facilities back then. Despite my Engineering career, I yearned for a change from conventional notions about sports, fitness, and hobbies. During my outdoor and fishing trips, my friends had always called me the gear freak (i.e. Soap shoes, GoPros, Google Defoggers, Glow in the dark kits, you name it!)
One day, while watching “The Drs” show with my late father, it instantly hit me; the beauty and benefits of Slacklining. Little did my father agree and despite his questioning, he had doubts and so did I nevertheless and ever since; we’ve been growing. I knew it would be the beginning of the journey that I’ve been seeking and indeed it has! After setting up the Slacklines in Al Safa park in 2013, I witnessed the extraordinary power of engagement with the community. This gave me the confidence to expand our product portfolio to include the brands we have today.
Despite the challenges and difficulties, I hope this inspires you to trust your instincts and embrace new experiences through your journey of wellbeing.
“Growing up I never liked the conventional sports practiced in school which mainly relied onteamwork and never gave credit to the entire team but rather focused on certain individuals. I felt it was unfair and demotivating not to be recognized for my contribution as a team player which discouraged me to continue practicing such sports although I enjoyed them, it’s the sad truth. However I wanted a change from the conventional myths about sports, fitness and even hobbies so I began with Gibbon Slacklines in 2013 cause I realized that I will be building a community for
people to interact and practice something unique with strangers, having conversations and socializing. After setting up a couple of times in public parks I realized that the power of Slacklining was beyond building & strengthening your core and muscles, it’s actually an activity that creates bonds in more ways than one.”
