空中丝带
此条目介绍的是空中丝带、绸吊。关于另一种在同面悬挂布条丝带两端吊起，且弯曲呈吊床状多用坐、卧姿势的空中特技：空中吊床、空中悬吊、舞绸、弯绸、U型绸（Aerial Hammock、Aerial Sling），请见“空中吊床”。
空中丝带、直绸、绸吊、I型绸、V型绸（英语：Aerial Silk、Aerial Fabric、Aerial Tissu、Aerial Contortion、Aerial Ribbons、Ribbon或者Tissu）是一种表演类型，通过由一个或多个表演者悬挂在垂直丝带上表演空中特技。表演者在没有使用安全索的情况下爬上悬挂的丝带，仅凭借他们的训练和技巧保证安全。表演者通过在丝带上缠绕、悬挂、下坠、摆动、旋转他们的身体做出各式各样的姿势。空中丝带有时被使用于在空中飞行，表演者在飞行的过程中做出造型和动作。有些表演者会使用干的松香或喷雾于他们的手部和脚部，帮助增加丝带的摩擦力和紧握。
