gymnastics parallel bar blocks are safer

Canadian Junior National Coach Markos Baikas of Taiso Gymnastics likes his new Gaofei Parallel Blocks from China.

Many of the drills we do on P Bars can be done on padded boxes much more safely.

The biggest worry for coaches of young gymnasts is injury to the sternum and chest. These boxes go as narrow as you wish.

The first set of PBar boxes I bought from another company, quickly deteriorated. This Gaofei version look much sturdier.
