Trampoline is a competitive sport in which athletes use the rebound of a trampoline to perform acrobatic skills in the air. It is a type of gymnastics and is known as "aerial ballet". Trampoline originated in France in the mid-19th century and was invented by French acrobat Tranpoline to enhance the safety of "trapeze trapeze" and use the elasticity of the net to throw actors into the air to perform various movements.
Trampoline was further developed and improved by American diving champion George Nissen in the 1930s for diving and flip training. During World War II, the United States used trampolines to train pilots and navigators in positioning skills, which achieved good results. Subsequently, trampoline gradually became an independent sport. In 1947, the first national trampoline exhibition was held in Texas, USA, and trampoline became an official competition event in 1948. In 1964, the International Trampoline Federation was established and the first World Trampoline Championship was held in the same year.
Trampoline competitions include net events and single jump events. The online event is a competitive sport that uses the elasticity of the elastic bed to bounce the human body into the air and perform various gymnastic movements and somersaults in the air. It is divided into male and female singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and team events. The single jump event is to complete a series of difficult technical movements on a narrow wooden runway covered with thick carpets, including front flips, back flips, side flips, etc.
Trampoline is not only a competitive sport, but also has high entertainment value and fitness characteristics, and is widely loved by young people. In modern sports, trampoline has become an important competition event, including the Olympics and the World Trampoline Championships.
