114006 - Introduction of the mini trampoline as a jumping aid and mini trampoline an a completely different way (including the methodical series for somersaulting on the mini trampoline)
The mini trampoline is often used in schools and clubs as a fun factor. It seems that the same jumps are performed all over Europe (all over the world!?): stretch jump - tuck jump - straddle jump - straddle angle jump - "small roll" - "big roll" - somersault. Firstly, this gets boring, but secondly, its very dangerous, especially because of the big roll and the somersault. Here I will show you how you can use the mini trampoline with other jumps, with even more fun, but first of all in a much more sensible an safer way. The training of the most important preparations for the mini trampoline (e.g. body tension) the correct jumping technique and arm control, small games on the trampoline and then the fun-focussed jumping on the mount mat with the various forward and backward jumps to the methodical series of forward somersaults (without spotting!!!) are also shown here.
