\n

From September 16th to 18th, 2012 took place the 8th Italian SusCon (Body Suspension Convention).
\nThis year, like the past editions, it took place on a location facing the seaside.
\nWe had still and dynamic suspensions and two really interesting classes.<\/p>\n

Ron Garza of the \u201c Outer Limits \u201c tattoo shop in Orange County, California, presented his research\/experience during the \u201cPuket Vegeterian Festival\u201d in Thailand; he showed us the anthropological and social side of this unique religious event, where fakirism practices have propitiatory purposes for the whole local community.<\/p>\n

Another interesting class was presented by Havve Fiell of the \u201cWings of Desire\u201d Suspension Team in Oslo. \u201cRigging Styles\u201d was the title and subject of his lesson: he showed the different styles of rigging during suspensions so that people could be more conscious about what suspension choose to experience during the SusCon.<\/p>\n

We had 2 outdoor suspension points, on the trees, 3 indoor suspension points and 1 suspension point on the seashore: the pyramid-shape structure we had from the last year allowed us to have also one suspension point in the sea.
\nThis novelty made possible to have really beautiful, simple, touching suspensions; we do recommend to take a look at the picture gallery of the 8th Italian Suscon in our website.\u00a0 ( www.aptpi.org )<\/p>\n

This year we had also a chill out area with a masseuse where people could relax after suspending.
\nA great effort was necessary: we had 46 suspensions and 2 classes; this was made possible by the great help of all the volunteers, by the welcome of the hosting resort, by the old and new attendees, without whom we have no reason to organize these events and, of course, by all the sponsors that great helped with their support:\u00a0 Industrial Strength Italia, Industrial Strength Needles, Micromutazioni, Black Sheep\u00a0 Hooks.<\/p>\n

We do really thanks everybody!
\nSee you next year!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
