Rigging for aerial athletic dance equipment.
The term 'Rigging' is used to indicate, the correct linking of the pieces necessary to support equipment and user, of the airborne type, rigging includes from the disc attached to the ceiling, to the last carabiner or ring that connects the equipment to the support point.
- Question: Can I fix my rim to a beam without drilling holes?
Answer: the hoop can be fixed to a specific plate with a high-tightness ring, which is attached to the ceiling, or it is possible to knot it to a scaffold, beam, or mobile support, without the need to drill holes as long as the support is suitable for supporting loads of more than 3Kn 1000Kg, and for the hoop in the case of a mobile scaffold, it is suitable for supporting oscillating movements without danger of tipping over.
.
- Tying to a support of the above-mentioned AEIRAL MOUNT types is simple.
- Simply take a Round sling link tape with a 1-tonne, 3-tonne hold
- and insert a carabiner on each side of the round sling,
- one carabiner will clip onto the hoop, the other onto the support beam,

and is equivalent to 100kg per kN. 1kN is approximately 100kg of mass.
By typing Carabiner on the search box at the top of the site, all models will appear. they are used to join the various parts or hoops and fabric or hammocks to a swivel or horizontal frame.
