Bounce Variations
Figures B2, B3 and B4 show three variations, the tuck, the pike, and the straddle pike
respectively. These should be assumed at the top of the bounce, before resuming the
normal landing position on your feet.

FIGURE B3 - PIKE
FIGURE B4 - STRADDLE PIKE
Practice these simple variations and concentrate on perfect form. Make sure that your
toes are pointed and fingers are straight. Maintain good torso posture throughout.
These are simple variations to the basic bounce and are very important for gaining
experience in coordinated movement.
