How important is it to do windshield wipers on stall bars? I have a good pull up and dip set-up, but not stall bars, and I'm wondering how important the back support is to the exercise (vs. just doing it free-hanging from a pull up bar)?

It is considerably harder on stall bars, so these are required for mastery, IMO. 

However, until you get access to stall bars, you can train them as a initial step on the pullup bar. Just focus on keeping the lats out of the equation.

It is a lot harder on the stall bars, so you will need to get some for the best benefit of the exercise.
