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

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.

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.

They are working great for me. I am trying to get to a plange by training with these. Although I have a way to go these are speeding up the process. They are comfortable on my hands which don't yet have the flexibility for training directly on the floor. I also use them for many of my abs and core strength workouts.

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.

Great and smooth. Makes pushups easier on my wrists

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.

My first pair of praralettes. I wish they were maybe two or three inches higher (I’d go 5 stars). That said, they are nice and compact (portable) and work as advertised. The rubber heels are sturdy and provide great non-slip.

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.
