hi

I wondered why the unever bars used to be closer together and now they are moved farther apart? I liked the way the gymnasts used to be able to bounce from one bar to another the way the closer together bars used to be.

hi

I think the reason is that gymnasts got bored with doing the same old, same old, and wanted to do giants, baby giants, flyaway layouts, etc.

[edit] Grips

"Gymnasts are permitted to tape their hands or use grips or hand guards on bars."

Is there any difference? If there is, then I should adjust the article hand guard, where is stated, that "hand guards" and "grips" is the same. Cmapm 15:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
