I've seen these setup in different gyms, first at CrossFit Prescott. When I rocked a series of kipping pullups on the bars there with these fittings, they were surprisingly stable and solid. I did all kinds of jerking and yanking and pulling on the bars - the fittings didn't budge. I was impressed.
Fast forward to last month - those of you who participated in our T-shirt equipment sale funded the fittings and bars for the project, and we plan to have them in place next week.
Here's a couple of pics with other gyms who use them.
Andy Petranek's gym in Los Angeles - CrossFit L.A. - these have been in place since 2005.
Ahmik Jones gym, CrossFit SoCal in San Diego, in place since 2006.
Write a little thank you note to Hollaender, to Joey at CF Prescott and to Tom Welch, whose skill with handling 1 inch plumbing pipe are key to bringing pullups, dips, KTE's and all kinds of other fun to a gym near you.
