2. "Airplane" - an element in which the gymnast's hands are divorced in different directions, and the body should be parallel to the rings.
3. "Reverse airplane" is an equilibrium during which the body should be in a horizontal plane with rings, the hands are diluted to the sides, the stomach to the ceiling, the back is turned to the floor.

Judges evaluate not only the complexity, but also the purity of the performance of the elements, and the quality of the produced jump.

Structural groups of elements made on rings:

1. Fly elements: unscrewed back and forth, large revolutions, complex double turns forward and backward and others.

2. Flapping elements in the rack on the hands (it should be held for about 2 seconds): swings backwards and a turn in the rack on the hands, large turns forward and backward.

3. Fly elements that end with a static element: a cross, a high angle, horizontal stops.

4. Dynamic and static power elements: horizontal vises, corners, horizontal stops, crosses, as well as power lifts and lowering.
