Marvelous!
I love the parallettes, they are the best ones I’ve ever used, and amazing looking

They lock together. That's the point.
Most parallettes are two loose bars you trip over between sessions. Ours use an interlocking magnetic system. They snap into a single compact unit for storage or travel, then separate in a second when you're ready to train.
Built for the hard stuff. Planche work, L-sits, handstand push-ups, deep dips. A stable base means you can commit to the position instead of managing a wobble.

Because they are not the same product. The cheap sets are hollow steel or soft wood, cold to grip, and they slide. Ours are solid wood with a 1.5 inch grip, rubber feet that stay planted, and a magnetic interlock no budget set has. You are paying for a pair you will still train on in five years, not replace in one.
They are built from solid wood with clean joinery and used daily by the elite athlete we developed them with. We do not publish a padded capacity number, because a weight rating only means something if it has been load tested, and we would rather tell you what they are actually made of than print a figure we cannot stand behind. If you have a specific concern, email us and we will answer honestly.
Wrapping the bars. The wood is sanded smooth, so the tape is not there to cushion anything. It adds tack so your hands stop sliding on long sets and static holds. A roll is included with every set.
For grip comfort and hand feel on long holds, wood wins for most people. Metal is only better if you need the smallest possible footprint or plan to leave them outdoors. We chose wood on purpose.
Both. Low parallettes are the most versatile pair you can own. A beginner uses them for L-sit progressions, tuck holds and dips. An advanced athlete uses the same pair for planche and handstand push-ups. They grow with you.
The two bars snap together into one compact unit for storage and travel, then separate in a second when you train. The magnets hold the pair together when not in use. They are not load bearing during training, so there is nothing to wear out under your bodyweight.
Shipping is a flat $15 anywhere in the US and $45 international. They ship compact because the bars lock together.
Wipe sweat off after training, store them indoors, and keep the rubber feet clean so they keep their grip. Treated reasonably, solid wood outlasts most training gear.
The parallettes, a 50 ml bottle of CTC liquid chalk, and a roll of CTC athletic tape. Your grip is sorted from the first session.

The best parallettes in the game right now, I can take them wherever the magnetic effect sold me! I highly recommend every calis athletes to have these in their possession

I’ve used a lot of parallettes… and the control theory parallettes are the best I have found by a long shot. The grip on these feel’s much more “crisp” than many of the other parallettes out there. The magnetic feature paired with their light weight really helps make training anywhere that much easier. 10/10 would recommend.

I really love these parallettes! I use them daily. My favorite thing about these is the magnets that make them easy to carry around. They are also very stable and low to the ground, but they aren’t too low where your fingers would touch the ground. I highly recommend these!

Magnets for ease of use, best grip tape on market, and portable for travel. These are hard to beat, def recommend.

Great parallettes, even for beginners! I’ve been using them, and they’ve helped me make great progress toward my calisthenics goals. Highly recommended!

These bars are so DOPE! They’re magnetic which makes them easy to carry around and don’t even get me started on the grip. Every time I train for handstands or planche in these parallettes I feel very stable! I highly recommend these parallettes to you if you are planning on purchasing some.
