Testing Aerial Silks on the Machine that Breaks Things

Phil Servita is an amazing aerialist and inspiration. He recently conducted some tests on fabrics. See the results here:

He also created the silks wiki.

Enjoy and happy flying ;-)

  1. Phil is awesome! However, the silks wiki is my project, though Phil graciously lent his space for several of the photoshoots and demo'ed a lot of moves. It's a wiki, though; anybody can add to it. :)

    I found this post when looking for links to the wiki, because I'm moving it to another site where hopefully I'll be better able to keep down the bizarre spam incursions it was having. Here is the new link:

  2. Is the silkswiki moved again?! I can't find it. :(

    I really loved it and I am very sad it doesn't seem to be up anymore.

    Best,
    I.N.
