THE ARCHITECTURE
OF EXPANSION

Ryan Robinson is a professional highliner, world record holder, and multi-discipline endurance athlete. For nearly two decades, he has walked one-inch bridges across the sky in over fifteen countries across six continents — from the granite spires of Brazil to the sea cliffs of Tasmania, from the desert arches of Utah to the towers of China.

His resume on the line speaks for itself. A highline walk of over 1.35 kilometers. A 704-foot crossing blindfolded. A world record for the longest highline between two bridges — 1,919 feet across the American River in his hometown of Folsom, California.

His work has been featured by National Geographic, GoPro, Red Bull, CNN, Discovery Channel, Outside Magazine, and The New York Times. He has appeared four times on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior, reaching the national finals twice.

Before highlining, Ryan spent a decade in endurance sports — over 100 triathlons with zero DNFs, the Ironman distance, and the Race Across America on an eight-man team in six days. In 2023, he completed a year-long solo motorcycle expedition across the Americas.

Ryan operates full-time under Stokehouse Productions LLC. He is a speaker, fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, and holds a B.A. in Intercultural Communication and Philosophy. Brand partnerships include National Geographic, GoPro, Red Bull, Black Diamond, Dometic, and Outside Magazine. He has 300,000+ followers across platforms and has appeared on NBC, CNN, and the Today Show Australia.
