Cloud Swing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A cloud swing is a type of aerial apparatus. On the simplest level the cloud swing resembles a Spanish web in length and width with each end braided and spliced-lashed with a thimble. Two high caliber swivels are required to support the weight; the swivels are anchored to a crane bar or a stationary rig.

The cloud swing is a relatively new apparatus, and many of the figures performed on it are borrowed or adapted form static and swinging trapeze.
