The Aerial Snyders, a young man and his attractive lady partner present an unusual routine on the high rigging. Theirs is a dual picture of perfectly controlled acrobatics making it doubly thrilling because of the dizzy height at which they work. Their routines are picturesque, perilous and unusual in artistic detail. With dare-devils like these, there is no room for guess-work. Every
move, every gesture that the youthful team makes has been carefully planned. A fitting climax to this daring act is provided by their suicidal double hand and headstand atop their 125 foot combination sway pole, the only act to ever accomplish this feat. Their rigging is tall and impressive and is sure to provoke many comments. This is truly an elegant act.
