Mr. Ludwig Schweizer of the University of Freiburg (Germany), Director of the FIG Apparatus Testing Institute has managed the editing process. The new contents of this FIG Apparatus Manual offer a didactical approach, which allows the readers to learn about the particular functions of each apparatus and about the intricate process that surrounds certification and approval. This publication also serves as a source of official information for all National Federations and lays the foundation of the collaboration between the FIG and the apparatus manufacturers. The new concept of these regulations’ layout makes it possible to update the specific data pertaining to each apparatus used in the various gymnastic disciplines. It allows the technicians, the organizers, and above all the apparatus manufacturers to be kept abreast immediately on the latest developments in this important area. The drafting of these norms has taken into consideration our Technical Regulations, Codes of Points and Media Regulations. With this publication, the FIG is renewing its commitment to the absolute necessity of providing standards for the apparatus used in official events and to guaranteeing that consistent testing and certification procedures are provided by fully neutral institutes delivering certificates in due form. In this respect, the FIG is pleased to further contribute to the improvement of our gymnasts’ safety and to remain vigilant about fair play in competition. We wish to thank everyone who has contributed to the publication of this document. The FIG wishes to all of them much success and a prosperous future at the service of the gymnasts and their managers.
