The first cable snaps tight like a drawn bow and the canyon answers: a raw, limestone amphitheater that has been cut by the Cetina River and now dares you to cross it. Riders clip into a harness, ears filling with wind and guide instruction, then push off—gravity and the canyon take over. For a few breaths you are a clean line against blue: 700 meters of wire, 150 meters above the ground, a direct thread between two faces of stone.
