The horse had several disadvantages that were addressed by the FIG. The narrow dimensions of the appartatus occasionally led to mishaps: If gymnasts' hands slipped from the horse, they were not able to block well and risked serious injury. One of the more infamous of such incidents occurred at the 1998 Goodwill Games. During warm-ups for vault, Sang Lan, a Chinese gymnast, suffered a terrible fall that resulted in apparently permanent paralysis. In addition, the horse vault was set at different heights and positions in men's and women's competition. At the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, the vault was set incorrectly for the women's all-around competition and caused numerous falls and injuries to competitors.

Uneven Bars

Height including about 20cm for landing mats:
upper bar: 245 cm
lower bar: 165 cm
Length of the bars: 240 cm
Diagonal distance between the two bars: 130–180 cm (adjustable)

Balance Beam

Height 125 cm (including about 20 cm landing mats)
Length 5 m
Width 10 cm
Originally, the beam surface was plain polished wood. Since the 1980s, beams have been covered in leather or suede. In addition, they are now also sprung to accommodate the stress of high-difficulty tumbling and dance skills.

Floor

Length: 12 m/40'
Width: 12 m/40'
Additional safety border: 01 m/03' 03 3/8"
Most competitive gymnastics floors contain springs and/or a rubber foam and plywood combination which make the floor bouncy, soften the impact of landings and enable the gymnast to gain height when tumbling. Floors have clearly designated perimeters--the "out of bounds" area is always indicated by a border of tape or a differently colored mat. Most floors will have padding for a few feet beyond the designated competition area to protect gymnasts who fall or stumble out of bounds.

The allowed time for a floor exercise is up to 70 seconds for males and 90 seconds for females. Women perform routines to music; men do not.
