Trampolining is a competitive gymnastics discipline in which athletes perform acrobatics while bouncing on a trampoline. It is governed by the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) and has been an Olympic sport since the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.
History
The origins of trampolining can be traced back to the early 20th century. The modern trampoline was developed by George Nissen and Larry Griswold in the 1930s. The first World Championships were held in 1964 in London, marking the beginning of organized international competition.
Competition
Trampolining competitions consist of individual and synchronized events. In individual events, athletes perform a series of ten skills, which are judged based on difficulty, execution, and time of flight. Synchronized events involve two athletes performing identical routines on separate trampolines.
Events
- Individual Trampoline
- Synchronized Trampoline
- Double Mini Trampoline
- Tumbling
Equipment
The trampoline consists of a strong fabric stretched over a steel frame by springs. The fabric is not elastic; the elasticity is provided by the springs. Double mini trampolines are smaller and used for specific events.
Training and Safety
Safety is a critical aspect of trampolining. Athletes use safety harnesses and foam pits during training to prevent injuries. Coaches emphasize proper technique and spotting to ensure safe landings.
