i put my thinking cap on and decided i would try something differrent... combine parallettes and rings... this is what i came up with...

its an arc thats connected by a loose rope... a handle in the middle of the rope... should allow it to rock and the rope to swing... i'm gonna use 2" pvc pipe, bend it and fill it with something to add stength...
any thoughts?
Great idea!
There is another model which is similar to yours (see below), but the handles are fixed rather unstable. I prefer yours.

Another cool thing that i've seen on parallettes is, instead of a pvc pipe going between the legs (this is the part you hold onto that I am referring to) its a chain with handles. It just adds some instability i guess.
Theres a video series from the crossfit journal called the boz and todd show, and im pretty sure in the opening credits of it you can see boz doing a press to hs on a pair. Looks tough.
