Trampoline

 

Trampolining is a competitive Olympic sport in which gymnasts perform acrobatics while bouncing on a trampoline. These can include simple jumps in the pike, tuck, or straddle position, to more complex combinations of forward or backward somersaults and twists.

 

The routines are performed on a standard 14-foot by 7-foot regulation sized trampoline with a central marker. Each routine consists of the athlete performing ten different skills starting and finishing on their feet.

​

Double-Mini Trampoline

 

A double mini-trampoline is smaller than a regulation competition trampoline. It has a sloped end and a flatbed. The gymnast runs up and jumps onto the sloping end and then jumps onto the flat part before dismounting onto a mat. Skills are performed during the jumps and/or as they dismount.
