handstand training devices

July 12th, 2010 | Gymnastics, handstands, rings

Used at Island Gymnastics Academy in PEI, Canada.

handstand training parallettes, Island Academy Gymnastics

Both challenge the gymnast. Both are intended to simulate (somewhat) a handstand on Rings.

The first unit is home made. The round parallettes are commercially available. Coach Jim Rand bought them at the WOGA Men’s competition last year.

Leave a comment if you know where they can be purchased online.

Hi Rick,
The second picture is a part of a product “gym-in-a-bag” and is available thru DGS Gym Supply, we have a video of Kevin Mizeika explaining it on Gymnastics Minute on Youtube.

Have you found out where they can be purchased yet? If you promise to purchase me a pair, I will let you know where they are commercially for sale. I’d say that’s not a bad deal :)

No deal, Paul. :)
