 ==== * Traveling rings: ==== 
 * They are part of a structure of 75 feet long by 16 feet wide and 16 feet High. 10 rings are suspended about 8 feet off the ground and 8 feet apart. 
 * The basic goal was to swing from one ring to another and come back to the starting point. The first structure of this size was standing at the ""Original Muscle Beach"" of Santa Monica California in the US. It was built and designed by stuntman Russ M Saunders in 1963. And then demolished in 1998. 2 were rebuilt in Feb 2000. 
 * Bruno Angelico seriously started to focus on this discipline in 2000 with the rebuilt structure. 
 * He is known to have created a multitude of stunts that he performs with ease, grace and style. 
 * Bruno Angelico was the first one to incorporate the structure (which was taboo then) in his wild and acrobatic expression.  
 * He was known to be the first one to bounce off the poles or going around the poles or changing grips between poles in a middle of a routine. 
 * He was also the first one to skip a multitude of rings in a full swing. 
 * He was also the first one to create “Mid air stunts” in the middle of a routine meaning letting go of all rings skipping rings with the same hand. He could also perform flips in mid air catching another ring in the middle of his swing. 
 * Not only he swings from one ring to another by his knees, he is also known to be the first one to be able to go from one ring to another by his feet and toes completely barefoot. He can also skip rings by his feet with a small grip apparatus attached to his ankle. 
 * What Bruno Angelico created and developed could be assimilated to a form of Parkour on the gymnastic rings.
