SL Spyder Gravity Boots
The Most Comfortable Boots On The Market

Who should use SL Spyder Gravity Boots? Gravity Boots are required for use with EZ-Up Inversion Rack or Hang Ups Bar. Additionally, anyone looking for added comfort when using the F5000III CV Inversion Table can use the SL Spyder Gravity Boots, and anyone with the F500III Inversion Table can use the gravity boots with a CV kit .

The comfort of any boot is a function of three features:

• Fit
• Padding
• Design

Fit

SL Spyder Gravity Boots provide an ankle-conforming fit through two "fine-tuning" buckles with micro-adjusting ratchets which fit the exact size and taper of your ankle. You can custom fit each boot quickly; a custom fit typically takes less than 20 seconds per boot. SL Spyder Gravity Boots are offered in a left and right boot to provide a custom shape of each leg. This insures that maximum padding is positioned where it is most needed on each leg.

Padding

The SL Spyder boot liners are a special blend of 5/8" foam designed to give maximum comfort with minimum compression. The unique feature of our padding system is the boot shell around it. Manufactured of a tough yet pliable blend of Du Pont Hytrel, the flexible shell minimizes any pressure points.

Design

The unique SL Spyder Calf Loops offer four advantages:

1. Reduces the loads on the ankles and prevents the front edge of the boot from putting painful pressure on the top of your foot.

2. Offers a second hand-hold to help you get back up to the bar.

3. Puts a 2¼ bend in the knees which for most people is more comfortable than inverting with straight legs.

4. Calf loops are detachable so the boots can be used by shorter adults and children

 

Unique Design

Light Weight: The SL (super light) Spyder Gravity Boots weigh only 1 lb 3 oz per boot.

Hinge Free Design: No moving pieces assures a long, trouble-free boot life.

Strength: The bar hook is pressure molded of a tough nylon-glass alloy. Lab tests of the hook strength have shown that they are capable of supporting loads of more than 1,600 lb. per hook.

Self-locking buckle: For added safety, our Gravity Boots will not release even when the lever arm is in the open position. A release tab must first be depressed to release the buckle strap.

Five-Year Limited Warranty

Shipping Weight: 5 lb.

CAUTION: Before using the SL Spyder Gravity Boots with any inversion table, be sure to read the manufacturer's instructions on how to modify the table for use with gravity boots, customers with the regular F5000III table can only use gravity boots if a conversion kit is purchased along with the boots. The use of gravity boots is only recommended with approved inversion racks or products designed for inversion.

Disclaimer: As with any fitness program, people should consult with their medical advisor before beginning inversion therapy. In general, contraindications for inversion are for health problems related to eye pressure, heart or circulatory problems, spinal injury, or bone weaknesses or fractures.

Who should use the EZ-Up Rack? This product is ideal for the physically fit athlete who is looking for a way to decompress after a workout.

How do I use the EZ-Up Rack?

Flex Clubs

Club swinging originated in India, developed by soldiers as a method of improving strength, agility, balance and physical ability. During the annexation of India, British officers witnessed the warriors' graceful motions and noted, "besides the great recommendation of simplicity, the Indian club practice possesses the essential property of expanding the chest and exercising every muscle of the body."1 In 1914, the U.S. Army Manual of Physical Training noted, "The effect of these exercises, when performed with light clubs, is chiefly a neural one, hence they are primary factors in the development of grace, coordination and rhythm... they tend [to] supple the muscles and [to articulate] the shoulders and...the upper and fore arms and wrist..."2 The shoulder girdle is one of the most moveable, but most fragile, areas of the body. Shoulder strength should be complemented by flexibility, and swinging with FLEX Clubs can improve both. Although a lost art for a number of decades, club swinging has reemerged thanks to students at Northern Illinois University and a physical training program of the U.S. Army at Fort Benning, GA. 1 Warman, E.B.
