STANDING BOUNCE
Use the basic “feet to feet” standing bounce to warm up and
get the feel of the trampoline.
Try to keep the body straight. Your legs should be slightly apart
when landing on the bed and together in the air with toes
pointed. As you jump up from the trampoline bed push down
hard on the balls of feet and toes, stretch your body upwards
and swing your arms forward and upwards.
As you come down onto the bed bring your arms down to your
sides, part your legs slightly, land with feet flat and flex your
knees.
IMPORTANT: TO STOP YOUR BOUNCE
Bend your knees as your feet touch the bed. Practice this move
so that you are confident that you can stop dead if you find
you are getting out of control or going away from the centre of
the bed.
TUCK JUMP
Start as if doing just a standing bounce. At the top of your
bounce bring your knees to your chest and briefly clasp your
shins. Let go and return to standing bounce with body straight
and arms at sides before landing on the bed.
PIKE JUMP
Start as if doing a standing bounce. At the top of your
bounce, bending your body at the hips, raise your legs,
keeping them straight and together, to the horizontal position
and briefly touch your shins. Return to the standing bounce
before landing on the bed with arms at your sides.
STRADDLE JUMP
Similar to the pike jump, but stretch your legs apart as far as
possible with the toes pointed and try to touch the top of your
feet in the position at the top of the bounce, before returning to
land on your feet with your arms at your sides.
