The shoe is on the other foot as we challenge a group of skateboarders to try to keep up with professional trapeze artists. Can AJ help Eunice feel like a 'beautiful banana' on the low swing bar? Will the instructors convince the skaters to land on their backs? What happens when these boarders put all their new skills together? These amazing athletes take on the ultimate test to prove they can adapt to new skills and try to keep up in the high-flying world of trapeze arts.

My favourite thing about this series is seeing the fear that goes into trying anything new. As a generally unathletic, uncoordinated person- I always felt like I was just a clumsy scared idiot when it comes to trying anything new and it's made me not want to. Seeing awesome athletes (I saw these three in the skateboarding version of this) show fear, nerves, and missteps, I think, shows that even if you're an athlete... trying new stuff sucks and is scary. kudos to these ladies for their courage!

I’ve tried trapeze and it is not as easy as it’s looks!! For someone who is a bit scared of heights I felt really good that I actually went up the ladder and did it. It felt like you were going to fall when you have to reach out for the bar but the instructors were holding onto you at all times before you swing out. Last thing is that it hurts holding the bar when you’re swinging. The trapeze artists are amazing!! It was scary but really cool to do!! If any of the instructors at the trapeze school behind the Sydney Olympic pool are reading this THANK YOU!! You gave me confidence to do it!!

I used to do gymnastics for almost 10 years so I feel like I’m pretty used to flipping and moving my body while in the air and swinging (albeit on a stationary bar), and now I just really want to try this because it looks so fun and challenging and I think I would have such a great time I also have been doing aerial hoop for the past few months and there’s a few skills where you hang by your knees so when they were practicing that part in the video my muscles on the back of my legs activated partially on their own in preparation/encouragement of what they were doing in the video so that was really funny 😂
