Safety Guidelines & Usage Warnings

Who is it for?
Our gear is designed for the entire aerial community, supporting everyone from enthusiastic beginners to seasoned stage professionals.

Lifespan & Replacement:
To maintain peak safety, we recommend retiring the product after 3 years of ownership or 500 hours of active use, whichever milestone is reached first. Even if the fabric appears intact, internal fibers may fatigue over time.

Environment:
This product is tailored for indoor environments. It is not intended for permanent outdoor installations, as exposure to elements can compromise its integrity.

Storage Protocol:

Keep your straps in a well-ventilated, dry area to avoid moisture buildup or mildew.

Protect the material from prolonged UV exposure (direct sunlight) and significant temperature shifts to preserve fiber strength.

Care & Maintenance:

Perform a tactile and visual check of the entire sling regularly to spot any snags or structural changes.

Immediately decommission any component that shows signs of wear or has reached its expiration date.

Operational Safety:

Pre-flight Check: Always inspect the sling for any defects before every single training session.

Rigging: Installation should be managed by a certified rigger or under the direct supervision of a qualified expert.

Anchorage: Confirm that your ceiling points are rated for dynamic loads and meet local structural safety requirements.

Hardware: Only pair this sling with certified, load-tested carabiners (CE/EN marked).

Surface Protection: Ensure the strap never rubs against abrasive surfaces or sharp edges that could slice the velvet or the core.

Fall Protection: Never train without a professional crash mat positioned directly underneath.

Supervision: Minors must be supervised by a competent adult at all times during use.

Liability:
The manufacturer is not responsible for any injuries or damages resulting from incorrect rigging, misuse, or failure to follow maintenance protocols.
