VGA - Trampoline Sports Individual trampoline made its debut as an olympic sport at the Sydney 2000 Games with Ji Wallace from Queensland winning silver in the mens event. http://www.gymnasticsvictoria.org.au/about_gymnastics_trampoline_new.html
Extractions: About Trampoline Sports Trampoline Sports consists of four different disciplines. Individual Trampoline consists of an individual competitor performing two routines on the trampoline. These routines consist of a compulsory and a voluntary routine. The compulsory routine consists of ten consecutive skills, five of which are mandatory skills that are set by the International Gymnastics Federation and must be performed, the other five skills are at the discretion of the competitor. This routine is only judged on performance not on the difficulty rating The voluntary routine also consists of a combination of ten different skills, which must be performed one after another with no breaks between the skills. These are all selected by the competitor. This routine is judged on the performance and a degree of difficulty score is then added to this total. This is where competitors use their more difficult skills in order to gain a higher degree of difficulty score. The more rotations and twists gives the skill a higher degree of difficulty. Many competitors of world standard will use a combination of triple somersaults, double somersaults with multiple twists, both forward and backwards to make up the combination of ten skills. Individual Trampoline made its debut as an Olympic sport at the Sydney 2000 Games with Ji Wallace from Queensland winning silver in the mens event. Victorias Robyn Forbes was Australias female representative finishing equal ninth in the final placings.

Extractions: In less than four months the world will congregate in Athens, Greece, for the 28th Summer Olympic Games. Over 200 countries will participate and close to 10,000 athletes will compete in nearly 30 different sports. The Olympics are going home and it's going to be a great show. People like to watch the Olympics to watch athletes succeed. I like to watch the Olympics to watch them fail. The summer Olympics are always exciting, especially because the winter Olympics are so boring. The only reason to watch the winter Olympics is for the corruption in judging and athletes who test positive for performance enhancing drugs. I used to enjoy the winter games but my respect went straight to hell when the International Olympic Committee admitted curling as a sport. The human body is capable of launching itself up to 12 feet in the air and can do multiple flips and twists. 12 years of training, 6 hours a day - 6 days a week can be behind a gymnast when they step onto the Olympic mat, and nothing is more satisfying than watching them crash face first on the mat. I love gymnastics, especially when they fall.

Extractions: Search Advanced Search home page club pages ... guestbook The sports of trampolining and tumbling are as old as man, a reflection of man's desire to defy the ever-pervading presence of gravity. A number of cultures have devised apparatus to send an athlete into the air, i.e., an outstretched animal skin being used to throw up, and safely receive, the descending performer. Circuses have used a number of devices to show off aerial and floor somersault activity. The way the activities are now practiced reflect the intrusion, delightful in this instance, of modern technology. Modern trampolining has only emerged in the last 49-50 years from the prototype apparatus built by George Nissen, USA, in his garage in 1936. The Air Force, and later the Space Agencies were not slow to employ trampolines with their pilots and astronauts. Medical authorities and those working with handicapped persons have found many exciting benefits from being able to use a trampoline. At the recreational level trampolining has an immediate appeal, especially for the young people. Every era produces at least one step forward in the sophistication of a trampoline machine used. The most modern ones are capable of projecting an athlete to such a height that the top stars can touch 10m-high ceilings and perform repetition triple somersaults with ease.

Message Board SYDNEY, Australia Bouncers will be out in Sydney's Olympic Park on Friday but not to throw rowdy Australians out of pubs. These are competitors in the newest Olympic sport trampolining. The men and women who will be leaping up to 20-meters (65 feet) in the air prefer to be called bouncers to trampolinists. They hope their acrobatics will raise the profile of the sport, one of the least known in the Games. Trampolining was invented in the 1930s by Americans 'Leapin' Larry Griswold, a vaudeville acrobat, and George 'Hands' Nissen, a carnival performer who preferred to walk around on his hands.

Information Gymnastics Indoor Outdoor Discontinued Olympic Sports In ancient Greece gymnastics were an important part of the education system; as young male pupils assembled at the "gymnasium" not only for physical exercises, but "mental exercises" in art and philosophy, among others Artistic Gymnastics Men's gymnastics was on the program for the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, and it has been featured in the Olympics continually since 1924. Olympic gymnastic competition for women began in 1936 with an all-around competition, and in 1952 competition for the separate events was added. The men's events are the rings, parallel bars, horizontal bar, side or pommel-horse, long or vaulting horse, and floor (or free) exercise; women's gymnastics consist of four events: vault, uneven bars, beam and floor. The competition includes individual scores for each apparatus, individual scores for all apparatuses (individual all around) or the team score, where an athlete's score is added to the scores of the teammates. Soviet gymnast Larissa Latinina set the unsurpassed record of 18 medals (including nine gold) in three consecutive Olympics (1956, 1060 and 1964), while the absolute champion of the Montreal Games Nikolai Adrianov, also from the former USSR, holds the record for male gymnasts with 13 medals (seven gold, four silver and two bronze) for three consecutive Games (1972, 1976 and 1980).

Extractions: home contact us Trampoline became a competitive event in 1936. From 1947 through 1964, trampolining was included as an event in gymnastics competitions by both the AAU and NCAA. The first trampoline World Championships were held in 1964, and trampoline was first recognized as a sport in its own right in the United States in 1967. Trampoline made its debut as an Olympic sport at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. Description of Events TRAMPOLINE Trampoline routines are performed on 7'x 14' web or string beds that can propel the gymnast up to 30 feet in the air. A competitor takes as many preliminary bounces as necessary for height and control, before beginning the first of 10 skills in a routine. Two routines are performed, a compulsory and a voluntary. The compulsory routine must include four required elements, plus six other skills chosen by the athlete. The second routine is a 10-skill voluntary, made up of single, double or triple somersaults with multiple twists. No skill may be repeated within either routine. A successful routine will show consistency of height, proper technique and a minimum deviation from the center of the bed. The routine must end under control in an upright position. SYNCHRONIZED TRAMPOLINE Synchronized trampoline demands the same athletic skill as individual trampoline, while adding the element of precision timing. Athletes perform two routines, a compulsory and a voluntary. Using two trampolines, two athletes perform identical 10-skill routines at the same time. In this most artistic event, each performs a mirror image of the other, doubling the visual beauty of the competition. The goal is to have both trampolinists in total synchronization of skills, height and form.
