222003 - Longitudinal rotation directions in trampoline gymnastics: observe, determine and define
In Trampolining - as in most other compositional sports - a twisting (longitudinal rotation) direction is determined quite early on, although the athletes have not yet gained much experience in overhead movements. This decision is usually made by the coach or left to the athletes themselves. But stands behind this?
Behind someone becoming a so-called "right-hand twisterr" or "left-hand twister"? This workshop takes critical look at the common "rules of thumb" for determining the direction of twisting.
Demonstrating gymnasts should be able to swing up into a handstand, roll backwards, perform a safe forward somersault and optionally a forward somersault with 1/2 twist on the Minitramp.
