Figure 8 Climbing Descender with Horns for Aerial Silks

Description Figure Eight Descender with Horns for Aerial Silks and climbing. Material: Forged aluminum Color: Silver MBS (Minimum Breaking Strength): 40kN WLL (Working Load Limit): 10kN Size: 172 mm. Inner diameter: 70 mm x 60 mm Weight: 260 grams Safety: CE Certified This Figure Eight Climbing Descender with Horns allows the fabric to pass through the inside twice, which distributes the tensions better and increases the friction surface compared to the Simple Figure Eight; this is key both for professional use (where throws are made from a greater height) and for fabrics that are given intensive use, as in the case of academies. This is the biggest benefit: it increases the durability and safety of fabrics that are given intensive use. Thanks to the large inner diameter, this Figure Eight allows you to take two wraps of the Aerial Silks. This keeps the silks open, which can also be useful for beginners as it is easier to separate the hands from the fabric. In addition, the knot becomes more stable and prevents the fabric from slipping. The Large Figure Eight Climbing Descender with Horns keeps the silks open, which is very useful when using the swivel, as it prevents the silks from tangling during spins. Finally, this Figure Eight Climbing Descender with Horns has European Certifications and is manufactured by an Italian company. To hang aerial silks from the ceiling, you will need a carabiner, a figure-eight climbing descender, and a ceiling hook. On our website, in the accessories section, you can find both the figure-eight climbing descender and the carabiner, both with CE certification. The ceiling hook is also available in the same section, but it is only suitable for Aerial Yoga Hammocks. In the image below you can see the difference between the simple 8 descender and the 8 descender with horns. For any information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
