Firetoys Aerial Silks - Medium Stretch - 150cm width

Firetoys aerial silks are synonymous with premium quality. Our fully certified professional standard silks are made from a durable, ladder resistant fabric.

The material's non-slip textured finish provides more grip than other aerial silks but still retains a sheen under stage lights.

The 150cm wide, 75 denier 100% polyester fabric creates a chunky grip. The fabric's durability makes it very well suited to studios and high use environments.

These medium-stretch silks are ideal for more advanced moves where some bounce is beneficial to cushion impacts from drops.

Medium-stretch silks require more energy to climb than our low-stretch Prodigy silks, making them slightly harder to climb for absolute beginners.

Please note the stretch will reduce a little over time.

All aerial fabrics are prone to reaching high temperatures during long or high-energy slack drops, which can result in small melted patches and holes. These holes are caused primarily by the friction of the fabric rubbing against itself and the performer during high-speed movement. Correct technique, clothing, and fabric choice will help your fabrics last longer.

All nylon and low-stretch fabrics, like the Prodigy silks, are more susceptible to this phenomenon than the stretchy polyester of Firetoys silks.

You should always take care when practising slack drops and be aware of the heat you can generate during these drops. If you regularly perform slack drops, you will need to inspect the entire length of your fabric regularly, and the fabric will need replacing more often.
