Vita Vibe - Ultra Portable Mini Ash Wood Parallettes Set - 9 inch - 12 inch - USA Made

These parallettes are light and will fit into a gym bag. Simple in design, they appear to be solidly constructed with sturdy plastic feet that will not damage floors. If you are a beginning hand balancer these are good for a couple of reasons. The hammer grip you will use in practicing on these bars will offer greater stability in your handstand practice owing to the fact that you can "fight" under-balance on them way better than you can by balancing on your hands where there is little remedy for under-balance. Also, because they are very low to the ground a beginner will experience far less apprehension than he might using taller bars. The wood handles are larger in diameter than most metal parallette models and provide a more stable grip. I bought four sets---three for my grandsons and one for my son, all of whom have begun to practice hand balancing. Santa also brought me a set with which I am very pleased. I had not done any hand balancing in over 50 years and these are proving to be perfect for my needs.

First of all these were supposed to take a lot longer to arrive than they actually did. I truly appreciate that as I wanted these for a trip I was taking. The quality and care taken to construct this product paid off. These are flawless in every way. There light weight, strong, sanded extra smooth, and just enough clearance for getting you as low as possible but able to handle your business. I bought there large paralettes as well and they are even more than I could have asked for. There stuff isn’t cheap but it sure is beautiful and made in house USA. I usually don’t take the time to take a picture and hit a long review but these guys deserve it.

I bought these for my wife (small hands) and she likes them a great deal. They are, in fact, more than sturdy enough for her very basic use and they are incredibly light and compact so she uses them more places, like the deck. If you have large hands the clearance between the dowel and the floor may be an issue, but for the average person and specifically my wife these are a good value for a basic tool that she uses several times a week.

Nice parallettes, well made, and comfortable to use. I purchased for use in bodyweight training to give my wrists a rest, and they work well - knuckles to touch the ground slightly, but its not an issue for me.

I was a bit nervous getting these since I planned to use them for handstand practice in my living room because I was worried there'd not be enough room for my knuckles. However, they have been great. Easy to store, lightweight, and strong enough for my 230 lbs without any sense of give, weakness or instability. They are a steal for the price and I'd happily buy them again.

These paralletes are pretty good. I personally can’t transition from L sits to handstands on these because of the clearance but that just flexibility/body type “problems”. The rubber feet are solid. They feel great when you hold them.My only problem with the pair I got is that they’re not the same size. One is slightly shorter (around 1 cm or more) than the other. That just bugs the heck out of me. I don’t know if that’s a common thing or some defect in the manufacturing process that went unnoticed.

I've been using these for hand balancing, and they have been perfect. My fingers have room between the bar and the floor, and they don't move at all while I balance on them.

I bought these for my boyfriend who didn't know mini-parallettes existed, but he loves them! Very useful to change up the hand position of the exercises in his workout. I have considered getting a pair for myself, as I have thin wrists that hurt with some floor exercises, so these help that. Although still "mini," these parallettes are a bit larger and heftier than I anticipated, which is great! They are still appropriate for travel. I was vacillating between making the DIY variety myself, or buying these, and I am happy I made the purchase.
