Anyone in the UK got hold of some decent gymnastic rings?
I did a search: The best I could find was through the London Crossfit outfit but £54 + £10.50 for shipping (that's a total of $127) seems a bit excessive for a couple of rings and a few bits of webbing.
Are there rings made for other purposes that would do just as well?
Might have a go at making two out of PVC pipe.</div>
Let us know how they turn out if you do make them. I've been thinking about getting a set of rings and, like you, was a bit put off by the prices I found. Have you tried eBay? I haven't yet because I just now thought of it.
Actually, I've never bought anything on eBay. I've been looking at Crossfit a lot recently and may give it a go in the near future after I learn to OH Squat, snatch, properly rack the bar across my shoulders. and improve my pullups to more than 3 reps.
