Beginner's Guide: Bars - Swing, Release, Fly

Beginner's Guide: Bars - Swing, Release, Fly

00:52

Ever wondered how gymnasts let go mid-swing and catch themselves again, every single time? This is your crash course in the bars. We break down the giant swings, the release moves, and the dismounts across both parallel bars and horizontal bar — the two apparatus built entirely around momentum and precision timing. Learn what makes a release move worth the risk, and why the catch is harder than the release. Watch the best of gymnastics live and free on Eurovision Sport.
