DEFINITION

Classification: 482/23

GYMNASTIC:

(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein significance is attributed to the use of the apparatus for an acrobatic purpose by the user.

(1) Note. The terms "gymnastic" and "acrobatic" have come to denote and describe various pieces of equipment such as a trapeze, bar, vaulting horse, diving board, trampoline, etc., that are used in physical activities known by similar names. These activities are characterized by extreme movements of the user, who uses the equipment as a fulcrum or starting area to launch bodily through space, swing therefrom, or perform other such physical activity thereon. The significance of the apparatus is more in the activity for which the apparatus is used than in the structural differences between the apparatus (see the Class Definition, (1) Note).
