The best set of parallettes for depend on how and where you plan to use them.
For general calisthenics training, I’d recommend the classic parallettes.
if you’re going to focus specifically on handstands and planches, i’d recommend the low paralletes.
If portability is the most important factor, i’d recommend the mini parallettes.with regards to the finish of the parallettes: raw parallettes have a really nice feel to them, but need to be stored inside or they will rust. The sprayed painted and powder coated parallettes can be stored and used both inside and outside. the sprayed painted parallettes have a smooth finish and the powder coated ones are slightly textured. powder coating is a more resilient finish than spray paint, but should you damage a sprayed set, they’re easy to touch up and have them look as good as new.
