ESSENTIAL FOR SILKS
The Prodigy Elevate is an essential piece of kit for rigging your silks. It's the simplest and safest way to hang your silk in a way that distributes the load and separates the fabric legs.
It only adds 17cm (approx. 7 inches) to your rigging, so it's perfect for a low rigging height. And weighing only 254g (approx. 9oz), it won't add much weight to your kit bag.
LOW WEIGHT, HIGH STRENGTH
Made from Aluminum Alloy with an anodised finish, this figure 8 is lightweight but strong with a Minimum Breaking Strain (MBS) of 40kN.
All our range of silks have been load tested rigged from figure 8.
If you have plenty of rigging height and you don't need to take down your silks to transport them regularly, then we recommend the Prodigy Aerial Silks Hook.
MULTIPLE RIGGING USES
We have a recommended knot to use for tying your fabrics, the method is included with every set of Aerial Silks that we sell, but there are other rigging applications for the Prodigy Elevate, too!
You can use the Prodigy Elevate to:
Temporarily shorten your fabric
Rig your silk as a single point sling/hammock
Rig two separate, different coloured silks to make beautiful two-coloured silks, with one colour per leg of fabric
Abseiling, belaying, and rope rescue!
