Parallel Bars Rules
Parallel bars rules: the exercise, execution, the D-score and rules for some elements. Each rule is shown as it is today, with the article it comes from. Where a newsletter changed a rule, the page says so.
Unofficial summary. The FIG Code of Points and its newsletters are the authority; every rule links to its page there.
