As part of the 2012 Archstoyanie festival in Nikola-Lenivets, Russia, design company Salto created this gargantuan trampoline installation called Fast Track. Measuring nearly 51 meters (170 ft.) the bouncy road is nearly the length of a city block.
“Fast Track is a integral part of park infrastructure, it is a road and an installation at the same time. It challenges the concept of infrastructure that only focuses on technical and functional aspects and tends to be ignorant to its surroundings. “Fast track” is an attempt to create intelligent infrastructure that is emotional and corresponds to the local context. It gives the user a different experience of moving and perceiving the environment”, the designers say.
