Understanding the Spaces

• Interior Core: Most comfortable zone—solid floors, framed views.
• Perimeter Mirrors: Stronger vertical cues; take your time.
• Levitation Platforms: Glass floors projecting outward—optional and brief.

Note: You can fully enjoy SUMMIT without stepping onto glass floors.

Gradual Exposure Route

1. Start at interior edges and enjoy views from seated or stable positions.
2. Walk the perimeter while focusing on horizon lines, not the drop.
3. Approach Levitation for short peeks; step back anytime.

Checklist

• Identify interior rest spots
• Move in short, deliberate steps
• Avoid leaning over glass edges

Grounding Techniques

• 4x4 breathing: inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4—repeat.
• Keep one hand on a rail or stable surface while looking outward.
• Talk through the scene (buildings, bridges) to anchor attention.

Gear and Settings

• Use a wrist strap or phone grip for peace of mind.
• Enable grid lines; keep horizons centered to reduce vertigo cues.
• At night, stabilize against a wall and raise ISO modestly.

When to Visit

• Night visits often feel less intense; darkness softens depth perception.
• Early morning offers quiet spaces and more time to acclimate.
