A girl who recently quit gym is advertising her "junior kip bar" on the buliten board. She's asking $230 for it (including the mat and board for underneath). Of course, my daughter is DYING to get it. I'm thinking that my other daughter could also use it as a ballet bar and that we could probably turn around and sell it when they're no longer using it and get most of our money back... BUT it will take up a LOT of room. She's level 5, just getting her kip (she pretty much has it, and it looks lovely when she does it, but it's not consistant yet). She's on a Y team, so she doesn't get as much practice time as many do (6 hours a week) and bars are probably her toughest event (though vault is kicking her butt right now too, and we certainly can't get one of those!).
So what do you think? For those of you that have these at home, at what level did your kids outgrow them? Are there any skills more advanced than the kip that she could practice on it, or is that about the upper level of its usefulness?
Thanks!
