This is an entry level instructional DVD designed for trampoline teachers and coaches. Your host, David Kennedy, takes you through the basic progressions of introductory trampoline using techniques that are the foundation of Larry Gleason’s trampoline program.
A list of skills and themes covered are as follows:
* Controlled straight jumps
* Body bouncing skills
* Half turns
* Full turns
* Seat drops
* Basic skill combinations
* Height building
This truly is one of the great improvements in gymnastics equipment in recent years.
Seems to me they will not be quite as durable as the old solid rolls of carpet-bonded foam — but that’s a reasonable tradeoff, especially for those clubs who have to move them often.
I spent some quality time recently with the Dollamur version:
* Easy to Move and Set Up
* One-Person Set Up
* No Flipping
* Carpet Protected on Inside of Roll
* Rolls Won’t Unroll When Set on Edge
* Easy Storage
* 3-year Limited Warranty
FLEXI-ROLL® System
Introducing the quickest and easiest mat ever made! One person can set-up or break down a 42’ X 42’ Dollamur FLEXI-ROLL® mat in just minutes.
Even a preschooler can unroll a section!
You’ll get the same great performance of our regular rollable mats chosen for years by top gymnastics and cheerleading programs. The same high performance sports foam, the same durable carpet and the same state-of-the-art bonding method. The best just got better!

Also, there is a good discussion in the YouTube page comments. I agree there are too many skills named after women with only slight variations in body position or degree of twist. The FIG Men’s code has been more restrained.

In my city, gymnastics training is expensive. Competition is tough.

Parents, at some point, have got to ask: Do I want my child in competitive gymnastics? Or in a less costly performance group?
