Standard Olympic diameter rings
These rings measure 28mm or 1.1 in. This is the standard size for international gymnastics competitions. It is thinner than the 32mm rings often found in CrossFit gyms. This size works well for athletes with smaller hands or those practicing specific technical movements like the transition in a muscle-up.
Most items in this catalog use high-strength materials. You can find wood rings for a natural grip or reinforced plastic for durability.
