Gymnastics Apparatus

Gymnastics Apparatus

There are eight total apparatuses across men’s and women’s gymnastics. Women compete on four, and men compete on six. Each apparatus contains its own equipment that will challenge the athlete to compete differently. For example, the high bar requires a different set of skills than the vault would.

Here is a list of all the apparatuses available to gymnasts:

• Uneven Bars (women’s)
• Balance Beam (women’s)
• Floor (men’s and women’s)
• Vault (men’s and women’s)
• Parallel Bars (men’s)
• Pommel Horse (men’s)
• Horizontal Bar (men’s)
• Rings (men’s)
