Still Gymnastic Rings are an artistic gymnastic apparatus in which the gymnast performs a routine from two rings suspended from above by wire cables. This event is traditionally used only by male gymnasts, due to intense strength requirements.
Description
Rings are arguably the most physically demanding gymnastic event. The rings are suspended on wire cables from above adjusted in height so that the gymnast has room to hang freely and swing. He must perform a routine demonstrating balance, strength, power, and dynamic motion while preventing the rings themselves from swinging. At least one static strength move is required, but some gymnasts may include two or three. A routine should have a dismount equal in difficulty to the routine as a whole.
