Our junior kip bar is a gymnastics training bar for kids just beginning their athletic career. A perfect kip bar for home use, it features a 3.8cm diameter solid maple wood bar and offers a good amount of stability for beginner to intermediate level skills and proves to be one of the highest quality at home training bars. This kip bar will grow with your child's gymnastics career. A four year old will enjoy simply playing with and hanging on the standard bar. As he or she gets older, add the optional stabilisers and the bar becomes perfect for learning casting, kipping and basic circling skills. It features ergonomic hand-wheels that allow for quick adjustment from 97cm up to 1.42m to ensure quick and secure placement. Our junior kip bar is the only kip bar on the market with rounded corners which help keep young gymnasts safe and gives them more confidence as they develop their skills. It features a tubular section powder coated steel frame which can be folded away when not in use, with heavy duty anti-slip and non-marking rubber feet provide stability and all the fixings are manufactured from stainless steel. Available in a red colour with or without the optional stabilisers - please use the drop down menu to select the colour you require.
The junior kip bar is also available in a package with the stabilisers, tumbling mat and practice mat, this is available here. The bar pad is available here.
To choose the proper setup for your young athlete, we recommend:
Junior kip bar for athletes weighing between 22-32kg (3.5-5 stone) to practice basic skills.
Junior kip bar with optional stabilisers for athletes weighing between 22-32kg (3.5-5 stone) to practice advanced skills.
Junior kip bar with optional stabilisers and plywood base for athletes weighing up to 56kg (9 stone) to practice all skills (plywood can be purchased at your local home DIY store).
Our recommend weight limits are a "working" load, which is how your athlete will use it (swinging, circling, hanging, kipping). Be wary of competitors who list a high weight limit as that may be indicative of static load (hanging only) and not working load. With the optional stabilisers kids can easily perform skills like kips/upstarts and back hip circles on the Jr. Kip Bar. The kip bar's base can be even further stabilised with a 1.2m wide by 2.4m long piece of plywood for more advanced skills.
