Spinning beams are usually between 4 and 10 feet in length, and are hung from a swivel in the centre. Swivels are also attached to each end and then to a Suspension Rig, from which the suspendee will hang.

Depending on the surroundings, and the type of suspension chosen (most people usually go for a Suicide Suspension, suspendees are able to kick off the floor or walls to influence their own motion.
