Grav Parallettes Prime
Unleash greater performance by working with a greater range of motion.
Say goodbye to wrist pain because the parallettes put the wrist in a natural position.
Get the best of both worlds by combining a birch wooden handle for the strong grip, and a metal body for extreme durability.
1. The rubber anti-slip pads on the base of the parallettes are secured with strong adhesive. In some cases, the pads may detach cleanly due to initial adhesive bonding failure.
Please be assured that this is not a product defect affecting the safety or structural integrity of the parallettes. We include replacement anti-slip pads with every order. If a pad detaches, simply use a replacement pad to re-secure the grip. This is the intended and easiest fix to maintain the product's function.
2. Expect to see some wear on the protective caps of (some) parallettes. It's a good sign, showing they've kept your gear scratch-free during shipping.
These caps aren't needed for the equipment's use. If they're damaged, it's easy to glue them back or remove them. This wear doesn't compromise the parallettes' quality or strength.
Kiss wrist pain goodbye
Remember that scene in every horror movie where the floor creaks, and something bad is about to happen? Yeah, that's your wrists screaming every time they press against the floor. Enter our parallettes—the superhero capes for your wrists. With ergonomic design, you can kiss wrist pain goodbye faster than a villain running from the scene.
The most stable parallettes ever
Think of the Range as your stability sensei. Its longest handles make for the largest support base. It's like doing a handstand on a runway—so much room for activities and zero wobble.
Only three elephants could break them
Think of something super strong. Like, strong enough to handle three big elephants standing on it. That's how tough these parallettes are. They can take a lot of weight - and we're talking 16,464N, which is roughly equivalent to 3700 pounds or about 1678 kilograms.So, when you're working out hard, don't worry. They can handle it.
Thick and well-sanded wooden handle for the best grip. Beats metal bar any day any time.

Stable and durable feeling product! Hope to work towards a planche with this pair of parallettes
Definitely worth the wait and value for money. The set gives you the best bang (or workout) for the buck.
It’s small and tiny footprint makes it the perfect go-to equipment to have if you live in a “shoebox” apartment.
Hopefully, GravGear can consider making a bigger version for bodyweight dips or even a standalone unit for pull-ups. 🤓💪🏻
Grav parallettes were made of birch wood, smooth to touch but yet grippy when holding on. True to the word, they took roughly 2min to assemble. As the parallettes could support heavy weight, we even stood on them to mount Grav gymnastics rings to a high structure.
If you're interested to see us testing and assembling the parallettes, here's our YouTube link where we did a review and product testing :)

These parallettes are the perfect height and size. If you have the space to bring these, they are the best use for handstand work, planche and all those movements. Tall enough to tuck your feet under when going from l-sit to handstand. Also tall enough to do things like planche push ups
Solid quality parallettes with comfortable timber. I've been using them non stop since they arrived
When the Parallettes arrived they had a scratch and a chip and we contacted the company and they did not give us a refund they are good quality but wish they would be more careful with the package.
This is the second pair of parallettes I've owned. The first pair were from another high-quality calisthenics gear company, but the wood handles quickly started splitting after I left them out in the rain one day. Coincidentally I also left these out in the rain and they still look great!
Nice size for push ups can’t wait to get the medium parallettes to work on my handstand push ups but there out of stock as of right now.
These were quick and easy to assemble and they have a solid build and feel good in my hands.
pricey but quality is superb. very solid and stable. a joy to use.
I ordered the Parallettes Edge and, although the first pair arrived with a small defect, the company handled it exceptionally well. I reached out to them and they responded immediately, arranging a replacement without any hassle. The new pair arrived quickly and in perfect condition.
The build quality is excellent — great finishing, very sturdy, and clearly made to last. They also strike the perfect balance between stability and portability, making them easy to move around and ideal for training at home or on the go.
Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with both the product and the customer support. Highly recommended!
Hi Gautam, thank you so much for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear you're happy with the Grav Parallettes Edge and our support. Your recommendation means a lot to us. Gotta go bananas with the trainings.
This is my first time purchasing a pair of parallets. I like the stability. I am 183 lbs and my friend is 204 lbs. The parallets have no problem holding our weight. The rubber traction on the bottom is definitely grabbing tight to the floor. (Any floor).
Good quality and nice you get a couple spare feet and end caps
Excellent and seems like it is built good as the Gornation
They came today and I put them together when I got home from work! I’ve only recently decided to pursue calesthenics but I’m so excited to incorporate the Gravgear Parallettes into my routine. The birch wooden habdle feels so smooth and comfortable, looking forward to getting stronger.
Well made, study,solid and good grip soze
Well made excellent size
Good quality and stable
I'm thoroughly impressed with these parallettes. The build quality is outstanding - they feel incredibly solid and stable during use, giving me complete confidence whether I'm doing L-sits, handstand push-ups, or flowing through more dynamic movements.
Sturdy and clean
Super fast delivery, the paralletes are well built and feel comfortable. Been using them for a couple of weeks and also took with me during travel. Super comfy. The only complain is the bottom anti slip pads came off the very first day, used super glue to keep them in place. Will keep using them. Gives me a better range of motion. Recommend this if you are serious about body weight training. Bought these after considering ither premium ones including pullup &dip, goronation. These are the best
Very stable, comfortable to grip, well-finished item.
Frankly, the little screw plastic cap are the only think I can complain about.
Those paralletes are everything I was looking for.
The weight is perfect
Great build BUT the rubber feet are cheap and a few came off during shipping. I own other paralettes and they have more substantial rubber feet that stay on and provide more grip than these little adhesive pieces.
The parallettes are so strong and stable it is a joy to have them to use.
Got a set of the medium sized parallettes but the wood was cracked when they arrived. They replaced them immediately with a new set which are perfect. Ideal size to grip and completely stable. The wood doesn't slip in your hands either
These may not be as easily portable, but that's not what they're made for. They are made to be sturdy, stable, smooth-handled. They feel so comfortable under your hands, so reassuring to L-sit, etc, and for paralettes that stay put (cos you don't transport them frequently, and you want a trust-worthy base for your calisthenic exercises), the Gravgear Prime Paralettes are the choice. They don't wobble, etc, the workmanship is exceptional, and the feel of them under your hands is lovely. This equipment is worth the money!
Everything came in
Happy to hear that. Let’s turn that into progress—keep going strong.
What I paid and what I got really worth it.
Quality is excellent!

Frequently asked questions
Parallettes are great for any bodyweight exercise where you'd normally put your hands on the ground. This tool gives you a natural grip that's better for your wrists. You can do exercises like push-ups, dips, L-sits, V-sits, handstands, planks, planches, tuck holds, shoot-throughs, pike push-ups, mountain climbers, and pretty much any move where you need a solid, elevated hand placement.
The choice between Prime, Range, and Edge depends on your workout needs:
Prime: This model is the all-rounder with medium handle length, offering a good balance between stability and range of motion. It's great for those who want to practice a wide variety of exercises, from basic push-ups and dips to more advanced moves like handstands and planches. Choose Prime if you have a diverse workout routine that includes both dynamic and static exercises.
Range: With the longest handles, Range is the stability champ. It's perfect for athletes who need a wider base for moves that require a lot of balance, like handstand push-ups or advanced L-sits. It’s also a good fit if you're taller or have a wider frame, as the extra handle length can accommodate a broader reach.
Edge: Edge is the smallest and lightest, making it ideal for people who are always on the move or have limited space. It’s a solid choice for those who travel frequently but don’t want to skip their calisthenics routine. Despite its size, it still offers the same high-quality materials and construction as the larger models, just in a more compact form.
Yes, parallettes are suitable for all levels, including beginners. They can help reduce strain on the wrists and improve form, making them a great tool to start with.
Yes, the parallettes can support a ton of weight—up to 3700 pounds (about 1678 kilograms) per pair, which is around 16,464 Newtons of force. This isn't just a rough estimate; it's a tested and confirmed figure that proves their strength.
Wooden handles age better than plastic ones, which can break, and they're a better choice than metal, which can be slippery and heavier than needed. The wooden bars provide a firm grip, don't slip, and won't weigh you down.
No, the parallettes come with anti-slip patches, so they should be stable on most surfaces. However, for best results, use them on a flat, stable surface.
While they're not specifically designed for rehabilitation, the natural wrist position when using parallettes may reduce pain and aid in strengthening the wrists.
For the wooden handles, just wipe them with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry right away.
Avoid harsh chemicals on the steel base; a damp cloth should suffice to keep it clean. If the metal base starts peeling and gets rusty, scrape off the rust and spray a new layer of protective coating to keep them in top shape.
Grav Parallettes (and all other Gravgear products) come with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. This means if there's a problem with the materials or the way they're put together that isn't due to normal wear and tear, you should be able to get a replacement or repair.
If your parallettes wobble slightly, don't worry-it's not a defect.
Our extensive testing shows this minor movement enhances durability by preventing the wooden handle from becoming too rigid.
