Rigging Rituals Playbook

Prep your anchors, straps, and mindset with our five-minute ritual before anyone takes flight.

A SkyFox scene starts long before anyone leaves the floor. Use this ritual to slow down, breathe, and make sure every bolt, strap, and body is ready for lift off.

Anchor Audit

  • Trace every anchor point with your fingers and confirm hardware is seated, tightened, and redundant.
  • Listen for creaks or flex while applying body weight; retighten or swap hardware if anything shifts.

Strap & Hardware Warm-Up

  • Run your palms along each strap to feel for frays, heat, or sticky residue.
  • Click carabiners open and closed three times—they should snap back like a metronome.

Consent Breath

Stand in the swing together, lock eyes, and exchange three slow breaths. Ask for the scene intention, safe word, and what “green” feels like tonight.
