Yes. I'm buying for the first time. Skipping the rings and the kits. Found a swivel that opens so u can skip the carabiners

Just set up a hammock for my kiddo and this made it so much easier and better! Thank you for the super helpful and easy to follow tutorial. Does the hammock slide through the hitch at all with use?
This is the most easy to understand tutorial I’ve found. THANK YOU🙏🏻

Yes!! I agree!!! So glad you're loving them too!
Very good and thorough video demo
I use an 'O' ring to tie the knot to, then attach to the carabiner, which can then be easily flipped around for safety and to adjust on the daisy chains.

Did you make a tutorial for this? Can u use the hitch on slings with a swivel? I would assume so? I need to be able to adjust the height….
where do you buy the hammock and other stuff? Thanks
Good job

Can I ask where did you bought that blue hammock? 😊
Hi Aerial Yoga Life - you are using carabiners the wrong way up. Use the wider end and ensure that you screw down and not up. As you say don't put your slings directly onto the carabiner but if you are due to height restrictions then make sure the screw gate screws down and you are using the wider end not the pointy end for your equipment.

Hey Jess! I want to know the distance between the hooks of the hammocks, can you please guide
@aerialyogalife

Hi Monischca! I recommend about shoulder distance apart, especially if you are rigging from a height lower than 10ft
Hey Jessica there are hooks attached to my ceiling for a swing can we use that to tie

Hi Kayal! This is a loaded question! Lol! I can't give you rigging advice I'm so sorry! You will need to find a structural engineer to help you answer this question!
Where is a good place to order that hitch? Nice that you can easily adjust.

Agreed! I got mine from aerial essentials: www.aerialessentials.com/product/hammock-hitch/
How do you put it on the rig? Do you just flip the Caribbeaners on I feel like that would slide around
@aerialyogalife

No, you would clip your carabiners onto daisy chains and secure the daisy chains to the rig 😊
It seems like this hitch would slowly adjust as weight pulls it down - do you find it stays put?

It does a bit, but I've been using mine without any issue at all for 2 years now 💪🏼
How far apart should the hanging points be?

I've read 16inches, 24inches and 32inches..the company I got my silks from recommended 16inches..or 40cm. I'm still confused!?

I put mine up at 16inches..I love it so far! Tho, I'm wondering if the savasana would be slightly less 'constrictive' at a wider distance? 🤔 I did notice I was breathing really deeply even through being kind of swaddled, I think I felt myself breathing into the back of my chest, and noticing the weightlessness and the feel of the material and my chest expanding, interesting to notice as I usually try to breathe into my stomach and the front of my body 🤔..tho, I think my body also needs to adjust to the new sensations and I need time to explore. Exciting 😀 I'm shocked I can stand in my hammock too with my low ceiling...2.36metres high...I'm approx 5ft5inches tall. I did my first follow along to the 30minute aerial flow, fantastic stuff, thanks!
This might be a dumb question but is there a trick to adding a carabiner to the other end of the hammock, too? Is it just a repeat of the process at 1:00, or is there a trick to it?
