Inbar Stalder

An Inbar Stalder is a circling element in which the gymnast passes through an in-bar position while rotating around the high bar or uneven bars. The name combines the body position, inbar, with the Stalder circle action.

Related inbar and Stalder elements appear in artistic gymnastics codes for apparatus such as the men's high bar and women's uneven bars. The exact value and permitted form depend on the apparatus and the applicable FIG Code of Points cycle.

The gymnast must maintain a compact, controlled body position while generating enough swing to circle the bar and finish with the required amplitude. Poor hip angle or loss of handstand alignment can reduce the element's value or incur execution deductions.

No. Both are circling skills, but an inbar version uses a more folded body position with the legs between the arms during the circle. That changes the timing, flexibility demand, and swing mechanics.
