Q: What size are your Aerial Hoop (lyras)?

Q: How can I aid grip for training Aerial Silks?

We will always firstly recommend training your grip - this can take a long time to avoid feeling 'slippery' and something many people don't prioritize. However, occasionally aerialists will use rosin to rub onto their hands to aid grip. Try to avoid using too often as to not become reliant.

Q: What fabric are your Aerial silks?

Our fabric is a 40 denier nylon tricot. It has low stretch in the length but has stretch in the width for comfort. It is a very strong and secure fabric, yet looks beautiful and delicate.

Q: How long will it take to process my silks order?

As each order is for different lengths and sizes, we need to cut each length of fabric and package from there. Please allow approximately 3-5 business days to cut and pack - or 3-7 business days in busy times as orders increase and may be slightly delayed. We do our absolute best to ensure you'll recieve your silks ASAP.

Q: How do I care for my silks?

Your silks should always be away from direct sunlight and never left outdoors. We recommend taking them down when not in use - firstly, so others don't use them if they are not familiar with the sport, and secondly so you can ensure the fabric and hardware are checked before each use to ensure safety. You should check your fabric in entirety before every use. If you see any nicks, holes, runs, or burns, discontinue use immediately, it's not safe to use damaged silks and this needs to be replaced. You should check your hardware before each use and ensure each piece works securely and there are no damages. When using your silks, ensure jewellery is taken off and you arent wearing any items that could snag the fabric (think zips, hair accessories, or anything with sharp edges)

Q: Do the silks come with everything I need to set up?

Our silks come with everything you need to set them specifically up. Keep in mind, depending on your rigging point, you may need slings, eyebolts, or other various hardware - it's best to chat to a rigger, builder and engineer to discuss your rigging options.
