We have always believed that the main purpose of climbing to the top of a set of silks is to be able to come back down
in the most interesting of ways. So we have selected our standard fabric to have a bit more
stretch which makes them feel slightly bouncy and provide greater comfort for large dramatic drops.

|
Our silks are 155cm width and will stretch to 210cm, fantastic for cocoon style choreography or wrapped static poses like flags.
|
|
The surface feel of our silks is grippy, they provide a chunky grip and are fantastic for release & catch moves or holding static poses for periods of time during photo shoots.
Your silks arrive ready for use, there is no need to break in your silks.

The sizes listed are the full length of the fabric supplied, so the length you require is double the height needed plus 2 meters for rigging

Safety |
Aerial arts is a dangerous activity and safety is of paramount importance regardless of experience.
As aerialist, we need to have full faith in our equipments capability in order to have the freedom and confidence
to perform or teach.
To provide this we have our own testing facility and test all batches of material, not just one off or periodic sampling,
our material is load tested and has a minimum demonstrated capacity of 10kN.
However as the true level of safety provided is determined by many additional factors including the rigging method
used and the weight of the performer(s) in the case of doubles, all our silks come with load tables detailing
the associated safety factors to help you in determining the level of safety provided for your application.
In addition, all our silks have unique serial numbers, allowing you to track them throughout their working life
and we provide you with a subscription to our lifeTracker service to simplify record keeping of usage, wear & tear of your silks
