The Wild Woozie

The Wild Woozie involves two suspended cables forming a narrow "V" between three trees. The object for a pair of participants is to start near the apex of the "V" leaning against each other, then slowly shuffle sideways as far down the cables as possible while leaning further and further into each other. The most difficult aspect of this game is putting enough trust in your partner to lean into you in reciprocity.
