Fun sticks, small 30cm (x1) and medium 60cm (x2):Fun sticks are an exciting product which have many, many uses. Use a set for jumping over, marking stations, obstacle courses and much more. Fun sticks are an essential element in creating a handstand training system, which helps gymnasts learn to self-correct handstand positioning at all skill levels. The handstand training system is a great side station for bars that will keep your gymnasts working and learning new skills while they wait their turn on bars. All that is needed to create a handstand training system are fun sticks, a wall with closed loop carpet and a floor bar. For early learners, have students kick up to a handstand with their legs touching the fun stick. Move the fun stick down on the wall to wrist height and watch your more advanced gymnast's impressive handstand work Velcro flaps on one end of each fun stick allow them to stand up on closed loop carpeted surfaces. Also, there is Velcro hook on one full side of the fun stick which allows it to be attached to a closed loop wall surface but, fastens closed when not in use covering up the rough hook Velcro surface.
