When I was a young coach in the 1970s, Boris Verkhovsky happened to immigrate to my city. In fact, his family moved in just a few blocks from my house in Calgary.
Introduced by a Tumbling Master of Sport from the Soviet Union, it wasn’t long before Power Tumbling was an important part of the Gymnastics scene in Alberta.
Boris organized us to construct the first “ski” floors. Springy, but incredibly narrow.
I love Trampoline and Tumbling, especially Power Tumbling. It’s an ideal compliment to an Artistic Gymnastics Club.
Here’s a runway extension we added to our tumbling trampoline a few years ago.
The sport has changed a lot since I was a trampolinist.
In 2013 I’m seeing a trend to grow the sport. 🙂
