The single point aerial hammock comes unassembled with your choice of between 5 to 10 yards of our low-stretch aerial fabric with shine. The length and color choice are custom. The sling setup includes the aerial fabric, two 13 inch runners, 3 carabiners, one swivel, and one daisy chain. Please note that hardware color may vary from the photo as dependent on stock.
Single point hammocks are mounted from a single attachment point (ceiling attachment not included). These hammocks are intended to spin and come with a swivel! Typically, folks use this product for aerial dance and trick-based skills more than aerial yoga applications. The sling is height adjustable with the daisy chain in 4-inch increments. This is helpful if you have a variety of students who are different heights or for moving the hammock up and down depending on what skill or pose you are doing.
Our aerial fabric measures approximately 102 to 108 inches. It is tightly knit and stretches on the width not the length making it a great fabric for beginner to intermediate aerialists as it has minimal stretch when climbing! Fabric stretch can be subjective. Please watch our video showing the various levels of stretch between all our fabric options here. This is our low stretch, aerial fabric with shine.
Choose the length of hammock for the height of your ceiling. If you are mounting in a low ceiling, 8 feet or 9 feet, then a 5 yard hammock will reach close to the floor. If your ceiling is 13 feet, and you want the bottom of your hammock to be 5 feet off the floor for flipping type of tricks, a 5 yard hammock will be at shoulder height. If you have questions about how much fabric you need, contact us!
Our aerial fabric is perfect for sitting inside and being surrounded! It is durable, strong, soft, and easy to clean. It’s made in the USA. This fabric is used for Aerial Silks, Aerial Dance and Aerial Fitness because it stretches on the width not the length. It is good for relaxation, stretching, or acrobatics.
We want to help you as much as possible BEFORE you place your order since all orders are custom with no returns or refunds. If you have questions, please contact us.

Measure the Rigging Height: Begin by measuring the height from the ground to the rigging point. For high ceilings, we recommend using a laser measure for precision.
Account for Hammock Height: Determine how high you want the hammock to be off the ground, typically for aerial yoga around hip height (about 3 feet). Subtract this height from the ceiling height. For example, if your ceiling is 12 feet high and you want the hammock 3 feet off the ground, your working height will be 9 feet.
Calculate Fabric Length: Multiply this working height by 2 to account for both “sides” of the hammock.
Add Rig Tie Length: Depending on your rigging method, add the appropriate fabric length. If you are rigging with runners or multiple links, add 1.5 feet per side (3 feet total).
**If you are rigging with a rescue 8 setup, add an additional 9 feet of fabric, as this tie requires more material.

The Aerial Fabric is 40 denier (thread thickness), 100% Nylon. It is between 102 and 108 inches or 9 feet wide. It stretches on the width not the length, meaning there is very little stretch when you sit in it, or climb.
The fabric is regularly break tested with a single strand breaking around 2,500 pounds. Certificate of strength available upon request. AFA uses a safety factor (also called a design factor) of 6 to 1 for aerial fabric. Based on the minimum breaking strength from destructive testing of a single strand of fabric, we recommend a working load limit of 416 pounds.
The daisy chain is has individual loops with a minimum breaking strength of 6,500 pounds and is approx. 42 inches. The end to end minimum breaking strength is 4,200 pounds.
Each 13 inch runner is made with black 1 inch webbing. Each runner is rated at 28.9 KN which is about 6,500 pounds.
The swivel is rated at 36kN with a working load of 5kN.
Each steel screw gate carabiners is rated at 50 kN each.

We have a variety of aerial hammocks to suit every need! The main difference in which hammock you select will depend on if you want your hammock to spin freely or not.
Typically, if you are doing aerial yoga you do not want your hammock to spin. In this case, select a double point hammock. This means that the hammock will require 2 attachment points to the ceiling. It also does not include swivels. If you try to spin, the fabric will twist, so it is possible to rotate, but a double point hammock is overall LESS prone to spin. It is more stable for aerial yoga activity. You can select between 2 different double point hammocks. The adjustable double point hammock is ideal for quickly moving your hammock to different heights for poses or students of various heights. It comes with a multiple link for quick adjustment. The other option is the basic hammock, which is not height adjustable but is great for a person piece of equipment where you don’t want to adjust the height often.
Our single point hammocks are made for spinning! They come with a swivel, which is a piece of hardware made specifically for rotation. Single point hammocks are sometimes called slings. You can choose between a single point set up with a rescue 8 or one with runners and a daisy chain. A daisy chain is different from a multiple link in that it is stronger for dynamic aerial dance tricks. The rescue 8 set up is preferred in the aerial dance community for its strength, but it does require significantly more fabric for the tie, which makes it more expensive.

AERIAL SAFETY WARNING TO OUR CUSTOMER:
Thank you for your purchase of aerial fabric rigging materials and equipment from Aerial Fabric Acrobatics, LLC (“AFA”). We appreciate your business. Aerial acrobatic activities are fun but are inherently dangerous. Dangling, swinging or falling through the air can generate force up to five (5) times your body weight, or more, depending on the movement. The use of our equipment and video instructions, even if properly followed, could lead to serious injury or death. While AFA strongly encourages all products be assembled by qualified individuals, and in strict accordance with assembly instructions, no amount of care or knowledge can eliminate all risks of danger. Your use of our products is at your own risk.
AFA TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR USE OR MISUSE OF AFA PRODUCTS. YOU PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
IN NO EVENT SHALL AERIAL FABRIC ACROBATICS, LLC OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES TO PROPERTY OR LIFE DUE TO THE USE OR MISUSE OF OUR PRODUCTS.
Please be safe. Improper use or installation of our products could lead to serious injury or death. Practicing at home poses more risks than practicing in a studio. Always practice above a padded mat. Some medical conditions are not recommended for aerial activities; always check with your doctor before beginning aerial acrobatic activities or any type of exercise program. Never practice aerial arts alone. Always practice under the guidance of a certified aerial instructor, and always ensure your equipment is installed by a professional rigger. All aerial equipment should be inspected before each use for safety. AFA uses a safety factor (also called a design factor) of 6 to 1 for aerial fabric. Based on the minimum breaking strength from destructive testing, we recommend a working load limit of 416 pounds. AFA instructional videos are limited to the assembly of the fabric to the hardware provided. Not every home or studio will be the same, and therefore, AFA cannot advise on any rigging activities. It is essential that anyone using our products be fully aware of prescribed industry methods for assembling rigging apparatus, including, but not limited to all necessary safety procedures and precautions. If you haven’t established a safe rigging point, please do this first with the help of a structural engineer, experienced rigger, or other professional familiar with what you're hanging and where you're hanging it.
