Who has or had the biggest rip EVER

[TheLittleGymnast]

I would like to know how big your biggest rip was As a gymnast, rips are a part of my life. I would also like to know what your weirdest rip was. Mine was a big rip, with a little island of YELLOW skin in it :/ it looked like a sandy island, with red water around it!

Oooh! Yay! Well, my first rip was from the monkey bars at school, not gym! My biggest rip was in the center of my hand and a bit bigger than a quarter. My weirdest rip was because of my grips, on the side of my pinky finger!!! That was also the most painful rip I ever had! Bars was the WORST at this time!

lol my biggest rip was in the smack center of my hand and was larger than a quater!! it took almost a MONTH to heal all the way!! the most painful rips are on my wrist though!

 

[TheLittleGymnast]

OUCH THAT SOUNDS LIKE IT HURTS!!! you both have terrible painful rips!

 

[GetaGrip]

I've been really lucky. I haven't gotten a rip in over 3-4 months!!! Bars is actually possible now...

My friends Rip was the biggest rip i have ever seen it was in the palm of her hand and a bit bigger than a 50 cent piece it took over two months to heal as it was so deep. She also gets blood blisters and Rips from straps on metal ouch

I am in level 4 and I have never really gotten a rip. I just get blisters.

I've gotten 7 or 8 rips. I get them on my finger sometimes which i don't understand but they hurt, you cant' bend your finger! The day before my last meet before state i got a rip. It really sucked. Then during that week i got 2 more and one was a blood blister. I'm glad they healed before state though and i haven't gotten any more since but it hasn't been that long state was 2 weeks ago....

My coach doesn't care if we get rips, we have to do gymnastics until it pops then we have to wash it, tape it , and keep going. Sometimes this really sucks.

well my rips aren't that big in fact they are pretty small normally the size of a penny or a 5 cent piece in Australia or smaller but i get so many its ridiculous over 2 training sessions i ripped 8 times (rips on top of rips etc) coz i had four rips and have ripped on top of one about 3 times on another i have rip on a rip and then another with a rip on a rip then one which is only a rip. so they aren't that big but just alot

 

[MWGC-Gymnast]
