If you are looking to purchase a large trampoline to perform some of these tricks, here you can find some of our large trampoline reviews.

 

Trampolines provide many of us with hours of fun and entertainment.  Some of the more entertaining aspects of trampolines are the assortment of trampoline tricks that can be performed on the larger trampolines.  These trampolines often include any trampoline measuring 12-feet or larger.  The amazing bounce provided by these trampolines propels us high into the air where a number of astounding moves are possible.  Below you can find the basics of performing these many tricks.  These are not all the tricks available, just a beginner’s course.

 

If you are having trouble performing any of these trampoline tricks just try to increase your air and speed of rotation.  Those are usually the main components that give people trouble when they are trying to do some tricks.  Increase those two things and the tricks get much easier.

 

Beginner Trampoline Tricks

 

Spinning trampoline tricks include those tricks that involve rotating or spinning your body until you reach a certain point.  These tricks are good starting points since they are not too terribly difficult and are not very risky.

 

The 180 Spin

 

The 180 Spin trampoline trick is a basic trick that merely involves you spinning your body until you face backwards from your starting point.

 

The 360 Spin

 

The 360 Spin trampoline trick is a more rigorous version of the 180 spin.  You must spin your body all the way around until you face the direction that you started from.  If you find that you cannot complete the spin, try making your body “tighter”.  This means holding your arms in closer to your body to increase the spin speed.

 

Double Bounce

 

The Double Bounce trampoline trick requires a partner to perform, but it is very basic.  All that is required is for one person to jump as high as they can.  Just before the jumper is about to land, a second person should jump.  This should propel the original jumper very high into the air.  This can lead to additional trampoline tricks that require the additional bounce.

 

Somewhat Difficult Trampoline Tricks

 

These trampoline tricks get a little more difficult.  You must have a certain degree of coordination to perform these tricks.  You may not get these on your first attempt, but a little practice will have you doing these with no problem.

 

Front Flip Trampoline Trick

 

The front flip is a staple of trampoline tricks everywhere.  All this requires is to get a moderate amount of air and rotate forward while jumping.  Tuck your legs and head to create a tight ball while rotating.  After a few tries you will be able to predict your jump and when you should release your legs so you will land on your feet.

 

Back Flip

 

The back flip is simply the reverse of a front flip.  Use the same basic technique as a front flip, but rotate backwards.  I used to have issues with these flips when I was younger.  There is just something about rotating backwards that didn’t seem natural to me.

 

Knee Flip

 

This is exactly what it sounds like.  You jump high enough so when you go down and land on your knees, you will have a good bounce.  This should propel you high enough to do a front flip and land back on your feet.  This looks pretty cool if you can get a series of these going around the trampoline surface.

 

Advanced Trampoline Tricks

 

These trampoline tricks are fairly difficult and may require quite a bit of practice.  Don’t be worried if you don’t get them on your first few attempts (or few hundred in my case).  With practice and perseverance you will have them down in no time.  These types of tricks may be dangerous on other surfaces, but fortunately the soft landing provided by trampolines greatly reduces that risk.

 

The 720 Flip

 

Okay, this is very difficult.  First, you have to do a normal forward flip twice before landing.  Doesn’t sound that hard does it?  Well, the problem is getting enough bounce and rotation speed to be able to accomplish this.  If you are having issues landing this trick, try a partner to provide a double bounce.  That should give you plenty of air to complete this maneuver.

 

Back Flip to Back Handspring

 

To do this trampoline trick you must start a back flip.  In the middle of the back flip, put your hands out like you are doing a handspring.  Now, push yourself off the trampoline mat with your hands and complete the flip so you land on your feet.  Those in gymnastics will probably think this is a fairly simple trick.  It took me forever.

 

Double Back Flip

 

This is the same thing as the 720 Flip trampoline trick.  Now, you are doing it backwards.  You must use the same basic premise to complete this trick.  Get big air and tight rotation to complete this trick.
