[@corifukuchi4885]

Thanks for sharing the pluses & minuses of the A- frame in a room with a normal ceiling height.

[@bamboladystardust9600]

so helpful! thank you

[@MegAerialFitness]

You are welcome!

[@sephyhot]

This was helpful ty it’s good for the price, I can’t afford a $3000 one yet

[@Kwisten050]

Wow, this is so helpful. I'm probably about to buy the A-frame and I'm definitely going to get the extended top bar (I'm 5'8"). I want to do lyra & silks on it so looks like outdoors, where I can fully extend it up, will be my best bet.

[@gorgeousgirlfriends5309]

Me too!

[@Scarletblack]

Thank you for this

[@MegAerialFitness]

My pleasure!

[@swilhelm3180]

This looks so stable. I wonder if that is largely because of the fact that the legs splay outwards. The KT frame doesn't and is so wobbly. Just utter junk. This looks very well made. What would be interesting if you did some swinging motions to stress the frame, like kipping pulups. If it stays still during that it would be really impressive.

[@MegAerialFitness]

Actually, this product is very well made. It is a bit wobbly even if I don't do any swinging motions. (*Uplift Active is not recommended swinging on this product) You can see how my rig is wobbly during doing hoop (→Aerial Hoop /Man in the Moon ：kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYKyZnp9Z5Jsoc0 ). Take a look at on 3:00 of this video. If I put some weights on them legs it would be less wobbly though😉

[@swilhelm3180]

@@MegAerialFitness Its just so hard to design a frame that is collapsible AND rigid. The bracing needs to be unbelievably strong but really its all down to the weight that is OK for the customer. Piping that is thin can never be strong unless made from exotic and very expensive components. Nobody is going to pay thousands for carbon fiber or magnesium piping! What people really should do is understand mounting basics and attach mount points to the ceiling that anything can be suspended from using plates that cover 2 or 3 ceiling joists. And the proper tools that guarantee they hit their mark. Perhaps a better design would be to permanently mount some sort of plate on the floor for 2 of the feet by the wall and have it be extended out to another to that would anchor into a plate recessed into the floor. But very few people are willing to cut holes in their floor! At least this way much heavier piping could be used. Here's a comparison in strengths of different shapes: roymech.org/Useful_Tables/Sections.html Ceiling mounting is clearly the answer.

Would you say overall someone who is already doing pole fitness but wants to start aerial hoops / silks would this frame set up be good for a beginner ? I honestly just started research today about aerial hoops trying to learn more so I can start to buy the equipment and add it in my pole room :)

[@MegAerialFitness]

I would think this rig is good for the beginner hoop movements and beginner hoop tricks (no drop and no crazy spin). Good for silks If you have high ceiling. And, I highly recommend that folks who never try aerials should take aerial classes in person first. Be safe and enjoy aerials😉

[@xx.ultraviolet]

@@MegAerialFitness ahhh thank you so much for responding!! that helps alot I might just hire a technician to attach it to a beam in my ceiling because I really wanna get to the point to where I can learn drops and spins. With the Lyra hoop Because I do drops on my pole so I know I’ll have the strength to achieve it faster but I’m so excited can’t wait to start my journey😋😆

[@laanmac1]

Nice! So for Lyra: spanset swivel and 2 Carabiners? Did you get all of those from fire toys?

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi, I got those from a couple different places but you can get all of these from at firetoys.

[@Aceofhearts_]

I’ve always wanted to do this but was to scared to

[@elenalaricheva6028]

Hi! What is the size of the spanset you are using in this video?

[@hayleyparkers]

Hi, important question... can you do drops with the A-frame?

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi! No, I don't (can't) do any drops with the A-frame since uplift active is recommending "no swing" "no drop" on this rig😉

[@hayleyparkers]

@@MegAerialFitness ok thanks 😊

[@elenaxthatxbitch]

@@MegAerialFitness I’ve been looking for a cheaper durable rig bc I’m 12 and on a budget but my family has a small one story house.

​@@MegAerialFitnessdo you do drops on this one?

[@Ratblister]

Where did you get the stand? I’ve been trying to find the right one for so long but I don’t trust the internet

[@JH-zr8lo]

What are the dimensions on the floor? I am in an apartment w 8"6' ceiling--just makes it--Thanks!

[@MegAerialFitness]

Dimensions on the floor are 6’ deep × 7'10 width. I have 9’ ceiling in my apartment. Also my rig is adjusted 8'5 recently（in review video, it was adjusted 8'). Here are videos how it works😉→ Aerial Hoop Tutorials: kzbin.info/aero/PL3M7dsDGHt-Mmf-5KYv5-GuJ4qKMhhSnR

Single Point Aerial Pro Hoop by X Pole AVAILABLE SIZES: 850mm (33″) 900mm (35″) 950mm (37″) I don’t know which one to get, any suggestions?

[@MegAerialFitness]

It depends on your body size and body type etc. For example, I'm 5'6 tall and comfortable with my hoop. And I like using hoop that smaller than mine as well.

[@clegler1]

Hi there! Where did you get your swivel and carabiners from? Did you get them from UA as well? Thanks!

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi! I think I got these from Firetoys: www.firetoys.com/. They have circus props and gears.

[@user-hb8fe4ng2o]

Hi, can you please tell me where you bought your Hoop? What’s the diameter? Thanks

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi! I bought this hoop in a foreign country. Diameter is 40”.

[@XX-nn9zd]

Nice! Can I ask how tall are you? So I know how big the rig is at this height in comparison with my height

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi! I'm 5'6 tall.

[@noraalshtail]

what the size of your hoop

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi, Diameter is 40”.

[@AlexandroBekos]

[@MegAerialFitness]

Hi, It isn't screwed, and It's floor friendly!
