In the world of gymnastics there are many specialized items gymnasts need in order to train at the top of their game, things like grips, bodysuits and specialized braces and pads can be very hard to find not to mention very expensive. But don't you fear there are a few companies that offer online purchase options for just those items at reasonable prices.
The first site I would like to highlight is a Canadian company specializing in gymnastics apparel. Jagwear makes high quality custom order leotards, shorts and training gear for gymnasts of all ages and sizes. They have a nifty design-online feature which allows users to design custom suits online to buy. Children love this feature and their prices are quite reasonable. Check them out at http://www.jagwearleos.com/.
The second company I would like to look at is an american company that specializes in gymnastics grips and equipment. American Gymnast hosts a wide selection of grips for bars, springs for beat boards, wrist supports and many other supports etc. They are knowledgable and they pass this knowledge on to parents through wonderfully infromative writeups that give additional indormation prior to purchasing a piece of equipment. Their prices are reasonable but you do need to consider shipping particularily outside of the United States. Be sure to visit them at http://www.american-gymnast.com/.
The last company I would like to look at is the Shape Up Shop. This company not only sells quality gymnastics equipment but also wonderful active games and toys for use with children or adults in order to foster healthy living. The company has competitive pricing and bulk order discounts. Again you have to watch the shipping costs and the time for larger items but overall they are a very comprehensive supplier. For the competitive gymnast looking for home equipment this is the place to look. Visit them at http://www.shapeupshop.com/.
Enjoy!
