Aerial Silks Starter Kit - Durable 9 Yards of Aerial Yoga Hammock with Hardware & Guide - Aerial Swing for Acrobatic Flying Yoga & All Levels (Aerial Rigging Point Up to 13ft)

The practice of aerial hammock makes me feel so alive and free! I wanted to bring the experience that I had in the studio home, so I got this starter kit on a deal day and I'm so glad that I did! The silks are stretchier than at the studio and more of a performance silk quality, so they do tend to dig into you a little more than a studio silk might, but it also gives you a lot more freedom of movement and room to grow! The kit comes with everything that you need to hang your silks or hammock from a tree, but if you want to hang it from the ceiling inside you'll need more hardware. I've had them for about six months now and they're holding up well! I hang them from a tree outside and bring them inside during bad weather. It's even caught on the tree bark a couple of times and so far hasn't damaged the fabric, so it's good quality! Overall, I'm so pleased and still so excited that I can have access to this at home.

I'm very new with aerial silks. I already have been exploring the Lyra. Since I already had a Lyra rig, which is actually arborist rope that holds 2500 lb, and very strong carabiners, I decided to purchase these silks. They are exactly as described, and very durable for a beginner...also SUPER easy to set up. I haven't tried the yoga trapeze setup yet, but for aerial silk practice they are perfect. All the parts are made of very strong materials. My sister and nieces enjoyed our Easter very much practicing on the silks. One of my nieces is now wanting to purchase a set for us to rig up for her. I totally do recommend them...spectacular price for a quality product indeed. Fyi...look for the set up tutorial on YouTube. The instructions are a bit hard to read...and the images on the instructions are a bit hard to see. Also the tutorial's font color isn't easy one the eyes either...just watch what they are doing in the video.

I know silks on Amazon get a bad rep. HOWEVER, if you’re looking for silks to experiment with and decide if it’s for you this could work. I cannot verify the safety of the product. I weigh 150lbs, do not practice higher than 5-6 feet off the ground, and have not used the rigging equipment that came in this package. Overall the silks get the job done. There is quite a bit of stretch to them and they have held up being washed in the washing machine. I would recommend if you are just giving it a try!5 month update:5 months in and there are 3 minor hole. Enough to retire. I must say I put these through the wringer with how I was rigging them. I wasn’t super strict with my friends who had nails or zippers on their clothes so I cannot be mad. Overall still very pleased with the use I got out of them.

My daughter loves it and feels very well made, and the supports are strong

We've been using and loving this for a long time now. Nothing was questionable quality. We put it in our high ceiling loft and have used it for ascending all the way to the top beam. Sometimes we tie it in a knot and use it as a swing. It's a safe kit and, the length is good for our high ceiling. The kids get a lot of exercise climbing all the way to the beam. We've had it a long time and they still fight over whose turn it is to use it. It was easy to install, it's easy to do the top knot through the device, and easy to remove. The silk is easy enough to untie after you have had it in a knot a long time, such as for use as a swing.

The media could not be loaded. I don’t really know what to say about stretch because this is my first one but I think it’s a great value for money. I got it on sale for $70 so definitely buy one that’s on sale even if it’s ugly color because it’ll save you about 30 bucks and is great for beginners.

I. LOVE. THEM.They’re so fun. At first you’ll have so much fun and be enjoying it but about a month or two later you’ll get tired of them but you need to stick with it.

She used it every day with her friends, They hooked it up to a tree branch in her yard. She uses it virtually every day. She had had it now for about six weeks. It appears to be durable and she loves the baby0-blue color.
