Trapeze: no ends
For Trapezes, we sell bars with or without ends outside the ropes. Bars are $350 for either style.

All trapezes have synthetic, 1" rope and come padded and covered with fabric to approximately 1 1/2 feet above the bar (about ankle hang length). If you would like the fabric sewn the length of the ropes, there is an extra charge of $50. All bars are stainless steel and are 1" in diameter. Stock widths are 25" without ends & 23" without ends. Custom widths can be ordered but delivery time increases. Ropes can be spliced to your length of choice.

Shipping takes 3 to 4 weeks from date of finalized order.

Aerial Fabric
We offer two types of fabric -- low stretch & medium stretch -- both are $12/yard. Minimum order of 10 yards.

Shipping takes 2 to 3 weeks for custom lengths and colors, but we usually have a few pieces in stock for rush orders. Our fabrics have been tested at more than 2000 lbs breaking strength per single strand.

The low stretch is easier to climb for beginners, is not as soft for bigger drops, and the width varies from 96" to 120" depending on the color. It is also shinier and sheerer and floats in the air. We can get many colors -- please inquire about your chosen color.

The medium stretch is harder to climb for beginners but is not as slippery and softens bigger drops. It only comes in 60" wide. We can get many colors -- please inquire about your chosen color.
Rescue - 8
We sell steel rescue-8s for tying your aerial fabric. They are rated at 50kN (11,250 lbs) and have ears that keep your fabric separated at the knot. We recommend steel because it will deform when overloaded, whereas aluminum or alloy will shatter when stressed or stress fractured. Cost is $40 each.
Steel Carabiners
We sell steel carabiners which we recommend for any single point rigging. Steel will deform when overloaded, whereas aluminum or alloy will shatter when stressed or stress fractured. These are Omega Pacific locking carabiners with wide gates, rated at 40kN (9000 lbs). Cost is $35 each.
Swivel
These are alloy swivels rated at 40kN (9000 lbs). The cost is $75 each.
Tufflex Polyester Sling (also called Span Sets)
These are padded slings that are used to wrap around beams. We sell black ones in 6' lengths. They are rated at 2600 lbs when hung vertically. The cost is $30 each.

"The talents of Nimble Arts were the icing on the cake at our event last night. . . .such a pleasure to work with. Thank you for working with me through all lthe drama and confusion. It wouldn't have been the same without them."
