For the 2012 Archstoyanie in Nikola-Lenivets, Russia, Salto, a design agency, made Fast Track. Measuring nearly 170 ft., it's a trampoline the length of a city block. According to the designers:
“Fast track” is a integral part of park infrastructure, it is a road and an installation at the same time.

It gives the user a different experience of moving and percieving the environment.
