85cm aerial hoop
Item sold individually, without the fixings. Be sure to order them separately! On the photos entitled "Example assembly", the fixing items are not supplied with the hoop, you will find them on our website in the category Aerial circus equipment.
Aerial hoop:
The simplicity of the installation of the aerial hoops makes them a popular circus apparatus. The model presented here is versatile thanks to the different types of hooks possible. It can be set up attached to the end of a rope. It can also be used with a swivel to allow 360 ° rotation or used by swinging with a clip on each side.
Which aerial hoop diameter to choose?
The diameter of your aerial hoop is chosen according to your size. When you are sitting on the hoop, there should be 10cm free above your head. You can take this measurement while sitting on a chair (ex: height between the chair and your head = 70cm, then you will need an aerial hoop with an inside diameter of 80cm). If you are buying for a circus school where several people are going to use the same hoop, this space may vary slightly and extend up to 15cm.
With this method, you will be sure not to hit your head on the top of the hoop when you are in a sitting position. If you are teaching students with diffrent sizes, be sure to check that they can't bang their heads on the hoop before you start your lesson :-).
NetJuggler's opinion on the aerial hoop:
Made in Italy by Play, we have decided to sell this model because, on the market, it is the model that offers the most complete certificates for any use in a professional environment .
Technical characteristics:
- Outside diameter: 85 cm.
- Internal diameter: 80cm.
- Tube diameter: 2.5cm.
- Type of use: static or swinging. 360 ° rotation with a swivel attachment ( not supplied).
- Certificates and tests carried out up to 2 people on the apparatus at the same time.
- The structure is in tubular steel with a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 2.75 mm.
- This model is also available in diameter 90,95,100 and 110cm.
- Anti-corrosion treatment.
Adhesive tape coating:
The hoop is delivered ready to be covered with fabric grip. We recommend the Prodigy Snake Tape. This grip has the particularity of not releasing glue residue on the hands and body, even after intensive use of the hoop.
Fixing system:
A ring is sold packaged by itself. You will need to purchase the fixings for the aerial hoop separately. Use one for static use and / or 2 fixings for swinging use. The structure has 3 holes (visible in the photos), depending on your assembly, the gap will be either 50cm or 55cm. We have put some pictures of fixing examples.
If you use only one fixing point, it is possible that the hoop rotates slightly on itself (even if you do not use a swivel), to overcome this, fix it at two points.

What are the conditions for installing an aerial hoop?
You'll need some height:
To install a hoop, you will need a ceiling height of at least 4 meters. The hoop will not necessarily be 4 meters high, but you need height above and below the hoop. Any installation with a height of less than 4 meters will give you frustration and very limited use of the apparatus. Imagine hanging from the hoop, you need a lot of space below it. Now imagine yourself standing on the bottom of the hoop, you also need space above you. With a swinging movement, you will need even more space. Without the necessary space, you will end up with a hoop that will have a role similar to that of a swing.
Dynamic vs static:
Remember that a moving body can weigh up to 3 times the mass of a static body. When you are on an aerial hoop, you are a moving body. A binding that will withstand your mass when stationary (static) will not be sufficient.
Installing a hoop at home, as a private individual:
Your life or that of your child will depend on the fixations, do not neglect the installation.
An aerial hoop binding cannot be improvised. Consult a rigging specialist, an architect, or consult the advice of a mason. During our discussions with some beginner customers, we are told about using fixing plates for punching bags. These fixings are made to fix 30 to 50 Kg to the ceiling. The mass of a moving (dynamic) person can be up to 3 times its mass in a static position. Never use this type of plate, the accident would be inevitable. Each building has its own different structure with its own strengths and materials. One of the best solutions that requires the least technique is to use a truck loop around a large beam. Again, consult the advice of a specialist.
Fixation in a professional environment:
Do not install anchor points without having a study and installation carried out by professionals.

Bonjour,
Je souhaiterais installer un cerceau dans mon jardin pour m'entraîner. En effet, je n'ai pas l'espace ni la hauteur sous plafond suffisante pour l'installer en intérieur. Dans mon jardin, il n'y a ni branche ni poutre de force suffisante, aussi je me posais la question d'une structure auto-portée. Celles présentées sur votre site son clairement à destination un usage professionnel, je n'envisageais pas une hauteur supérieure à 4m pour le portique. Auriez-vous des indications?
Merci pour votre retour
Nous proposons uniquement du matériel professionnel pour les installations extérieur de ce type. Le portique aérien qu'on propose peut être monté au choix à plusieurs hauteurs.
Voir la description du portique aérien, il y ai mentionné les différentes hauteurs modulables, il y a une hauteur proche de celle que vous souhaitez à 4,2 mètres de hauteur.
Le problème de la majorité des structures amateurs qui existent c'est qu'elles sont souvent peu stables et ne respectent pas toujours les normes et résistances pour une utilisation en milieu professionnel. Il en va de la sécurité des personnes qui les utilisent.
Bonjour,
Peux t-on fixer le cerceau au plafond? Il n’y a pas de risque qu’il se détache avec le poids?
Merci à vous.
Pour une fixation au plafond il faut que votre accroche au plafond soit en mesure de supporter au moins 1 tonne de pression. Si vous souhaitez mettre ce type de fixation en place, je vous invite à vous rapprocher d'un organisme agrée, d'un architecte ou d'un maçon. Il faut en effet prendre en compte le poids de la personne en mouvement et non pas le poids de la personne en position statique. Une des meilleure solution de fixation est de se fixer sur une poutre porteuses.
N'hésitez pas à nous appeler pour plus d'informations.
Bonjour
Combien faut i l prévoir entre chaque cerceau ?
Cordialement
Marion
Ecartement entre deux cerceaux aériens
Le fabricant ainsi que les professionnels qui pratiquent préconisent un écartement minimum de 2 mètres. Pour un confort optimal certains annoncent un écartement de 2m50.
Le plus important, c'est la résistance de la poutre ou structure qui va accueillir les accroches des cerceaux. Il faut faire des calculs de charge pour cela.
Utilisation de cerceaux aériens en milieu professionnel
Si c'est pour accueillir du public il faut obligatoirement passer par une commission de sécurité. Ils pourront faire ces calculs selon les informations que vous leur donnerez(poids des personnes, nb de personnes max en suspension en même temps, poids du matériel)
