Top tips

  • Don't forget to do the somersault as you concentrate on the twist.
  • Make sure you do not lean sideways as you take off, as you could end up over the side of the trampoline!
  • To find out which way you twist: do a seat drop to front drop, then do a seat drop with a very late half twist to back drop.
  • Practice with a coach calling the twist and a throwing mat.
