Trampoline gymnastics is an exhilarating sport that combines acrobatics and artistry as athletes perform gravity-defying moves while bouncing on a trampoline. This Olympic sport includes various events such as individual trampoline, synchronized trampoline, double mini-trampoline, and tumbling. Competitors execute a series of jumps, twists, and somersaults, showcasing their skills and creativity in the air.
Competitive Structure
In competitions, athletes can perform a range of moves, from basic jumps in straight, pike, tuck, or straddle positions to complex combinations involving forward and backward somersaults and twists. Scoring is based on both the difficulty of the routines and the total time spent in the air, with deductions for poor form and horizontal displacement from the center of the trampoline bed.
