Can the Elite Rings be used in a competitive gymnastics program?
No, the Elite Rings are not FIG certified and are based on a different design. The Elite Rings are designed from the ground up for fitness workouts. The mounting system is designed to allow for quick height adjustments and portability. A competitive gymnastics program could use the Elite Rings as part of their strength and conditioning program, but not for doing swinging elements and dismounts. I would recommend purchasing competition rings from American-Gymnast.com, Norberts or AAI.
