Combining Stilt walking with trapeze was a challenge. It was an almost unimaginable goal to do a Trapeze Act on Stilts (That was enough for me- I had to achieve it). Fortunately Sandrine Deplanque from Cirque du Soleil helped. She choreographed the routine and I trained for 10 days straight. Having stilts on my legs created new and difficult problems not the least of which were getting on and off the trapeze, transitioning into and out of positions, and in and out of tricks. It was a monumental tast but the show "Flying High in Aspen" opened with the Premier of the World's First Stilt-Trapeze Act !
