Studies have related this experience to the concept of flow, a positive feeling that individuals undergo when they are completely immersed in an activity. However, little is known about the exact nature of these experiences, and, there are still no empirical results to characterize the brain dynamics during extreme sport practice. This work aimed at investigating changes in psychological responses while recording physiological (heart rate\u2013HR, and breathing rate\u2013BR) and neural (electroencephalographic\u2013EEG) data of eight volunteers, during outdoors slackline walking in a mountainous environment at two different altitude conditions (1 m\u2013low-walk\u2013 and 45 m\u2013high-walk\u2013from the ground). Low-walk showed a higher score on flow scale, while high-walk displayed a higher score in the negative affect aspects, which together point to some level of flow restriction during high-walk. The order of task performance was shown to be relevant for the physiological and neural variables. The brain behavior during flow, mainly considering attention networks, displayed the stimulus-driven ventral attention network\u2013VAN, regionally prevailing (mainly at the frontal lobe), over the goal-directed dorsal attention network\u2013DAN. Therefore, we suggest an interpretation of flow experiences as an opened attention to more changing details in the surroundings, <jats:italic>i.e<\/jats:italic>., configured as a \u2018task-constantly-opened-to-subtle-information experience\u2019, rather than a \u2018task-focused
