Oh the colours! Fly in the magical embrace of a rainbow or the pinks and blues of a summer sky as it kisses the day goodbye.
But seriously...
This is MEDIUM stretch fabric (unlike our solid colour fabric which is LOW stretch). What this means:
Pros:
- The colours are beautiful and fun and photograph beautifully.
- Experienced Aerialists will enjoy the extra bounce for drops.
- The stretch cushions the impact of movement.
- Experienced Aerialist will appreciate the fluidity of movement the stretch allows.
- In the case of an Aerial Hammock/Sling, the stretch means that you need a bit less fabric. (Yay for a $$ saving!)
Cons:
- Much more physically challenging to climb.
- Harder to grip.
- Cinches tighter in knots and wraps.
- Can feel very 'bite-ey' in an Aerial Hammock/Sling, especially if you only have a short drop.
- More challenging to set the right height in the case of an Aerial Hammock/Sling.
- Less supportive in the static poses often explored in Aerial Hammock/Sling.
How to choose the right length:
Silks/Tissu:
1. Measure the distance from the floor to the attachment point.
2. Multiply the distance by 2.
3. Add 1m.
Hammock/Sling:
1. Measure the distance from the floor to the attachment point/s.
2. Multiply the distance by 2.
3. For Aerial Yoga deduct 1m. In the case of Dance Hammock, deduct 2m.
