A trampette is a small square trampoline used in gymnastics. Trampette is one of three disciplines in the sport TeamGym.
TeamGym Discipline
In TeamGym, the trampette is positioned at the end of a runway in front of a mat. The trampette is adjusted at an angle, tilted towards the gymnast, who approaches the trampette at a run. The gymnast jumps onto the trampette and performs a somersault, landing on the mat. Part of the TeamGym trampette program is performed with a vaulting apparatus, which is positioned between the trampette and the mat.
Trampette programs are performed to music. Each team completes three consecutive rounds. During each round, six gymnasts perform one run each. At least one round is performed using the vaulting apparatus. Each athlete closely follows the previous athlete without pause, making for a high-speed program. This is referred to as "streaming".
Beginners usually start with simple jumps, such as the straight, tuck, star, straddle and pike jumps. Intermediate moves include dive rolls, tuck front, pike front, and straight front somersaults, while advanced moves include straight halfs, straight fulls and doubles. Backward moves such as tuck backs, straight backs or whip backs are not usually performed on a trampette because the gymnast approaches the trampette at a forward run, making it difficult to land such moves.
