LAS VEGAS, NV — Circux Systems LLC today announced the official release of RigThis (rig-this.com), a specialized utility app engineered specifically for arena riggers, touring production crews, and stagehands. Built by live entertainment industry veteran Tanner Johnson, RigThis replaces clunky spreadsheets and paper notebook calculations with instant, high-precision rigging math running natively on iOS and Android devices—100% offline.
Designed on the deck to solve real show-floor constraints, RigThis runs heavy physics for bridles and truss load distributions instantly. The app prioritizes load-in speed, safety-first alerts, and total privacy, operating with zero data tracking and no cloud or network connectivity required.
CORE FEATURES OF RIGTHIS:
- 2-Leg & 3-Leg Bridle Solvers: Solves leg lengths and tensions in real time using barycentric weighting. Handles real-world variables including beam heights, basket adjustments, offsets, and target hook height vertical drop math.
- Safety-First Analytics & Red Alerts: Highlights hot points, resultant side-pull, and dangerous bridle angles (60°+) before steel is committed in the air.
- Dynamic Load Distribution & DLF: Visualizes point loads for LED video walls, speaker arrays, and moving trusses, incorporating Dynamic Load Factors (DLF) for automated moves so shifting weight doesn't overload motors.
- Projects & Saved Venues: Maintain multiple venue profiles simultaneously with room-specific grid heights, rating limits, and saved calculation histories.
- Rigging Unit Converter & Moment Checks: Integrated utilities including a quick unit converter and lever rule calculations for moment checks along beams or trusses.
"I've spent 14 years in the entertainment industry with a real passion for rigging. I built RigThis because I kept doing the same calculations over and over by hand on the floor. It's one rigger's answer to problems I've actually had in the room—giving crews plain numbers and cautious flags before they commit to a pick."
— Tanner Johnson, Founder of Circux Systems
