Which size of the Practice Balance Beams is best for my gymnast?

The most common size for home use is the 8' UPSable Practice Balance Beam. Low to the ground for safety, your athlete will be able to hone their fundamental skills regardless of their competitive level. At only 93" long, it is the perfect size to fit in a bedroom or common area. We recommend purchasing one of our Carolina Gym Supply Panel Mats to pad the immediate area around the Practice Balance Beam.

In a gymnastics facility, it is more common to see the 12' or full-length (16' 5") Practice Balance Beams. These allow two or more athletes to use a single beam at once depending on the drill or conditioning exercise.

Note: If purchasing a 12' or full-length beam for home use, make sure you'll be able to get the balance beam around any corners from the door to its final spot in your house. Balance beams do not bend!
