Trampoline Gymnastics
Developed in the 1930s to train astronauts and acrobats, this high-flying sport is the newest addition to Olympic Gymnastics, joining the Games in 2000. In Trampoline Gymnastics, athletes execute jaw-dropping twists and somersaults on a trampoline. Launching their bodies up to 10m in the air, competitors deliver routines consisting of 10 consecutive skills, which judges score based on difficulty, execution, horizontal displacement and time of flight. The sport demands extraordinary spatial awareness and control, with gymnasts taking off, orienting their bodies mid-air and then landing, all in a matter of milliseconds, providing spectators with high-stakes and high-excitement performances.
