The rings themselves are black, textured and made of a high impact polycarbonate resin, the same material that competitive gymnastics rings are made out of. This allows them to be very lightweight and yet still extremely strong; rated at over 1000lbs each!The strap cam buckles are specially designed to adjust strap length within seconds - this is a very nice feature; no more wrestling with d-rings. The straps are a black high tensile strength nylon and extra long (18') to accommodate handstand work (Yes, there is a lot of handstand and press handstand work in the forthcoming Gymnastic Bodies program. Don't worry, I will teach you.). The straps and cam buckles are also rated at over 1000lbs each; giving you an incredibly tough and versatile workout tool.
How can I best care for the straps so that they will last as long as possible?
Is there a history that shows when staps, buckles, or maybe even rings get replaced?
What is normal wear and tear that can be noticed and how can I notice weak spots forming?
I have no complaints about the Rings and I am very glad to have them.
I just really want to make sure I know the product well.
Thanks
