The trampoline scoring system used in world competitions and at the Olympics is pretty complex, but you can enjoy being a spectator without knowing every single rule. The final mark a trampolinist receives is based on two different scores, namely difficulty and execution.
The difficulty score starts at 0.0 and increases with every difficult skill performed. It usually ranges from the high 15's to low 16's for men, and the high 13's to high 14's for women.
The execution score begins at a 10.0, and the judges deduct for errors in performance such as a break in form or an extra bounce. For the execution mark, five judges each score the routine.
The highest and lowest marks are thrown out, and the three middle scores are added to the "difficulty score to total the final mark. Therefore, execution is weighed more heavily than difficulty in the final score.
It is possible to pick out a great routine without knowing every scoring nuance. When watching the routines, there are a number of things you can keep an eye out for.
First of all, good form and execution is a must. In all positions, the feet and legs should be together, and the toes should be pointed.
The body should be in one of three positions at all times; these being being tucked with the knees bent, piked with legs straight and hip angle is less than 135 degrees, or straight with legs straight and the angle of the hips is greater than 135 degrees. Arms should be straight and close to the body as much as possible.
Next, look for a high degree of difficulty since a portion of the score a gymnast receives is due to the difficulty of his/her routine. In general, the more flips and twists a gymnast performs before hitting the trampoline, the more difficult his/her routine is.
The performance also needs a variety of elements, and no skill may be repeated during a routine. Keep in mind that performing a skill in the straight position and in the pike position counts as two different skills.
For example, a full-in straight and a full-in piked are two different elements. In the qualifying rounds of the Olympics, this carries over to both of the routines a gymnast performs.
He or she may not repeat the same element in either of his/her routines in that competition. There also needs to be a continuous flow of the routine.
This means that the gymnast must perform a skill on every bounce, without taking an extra bounce between skills. He or she may not stop at any point, receive help from a spotter, or touch anything besides the trampoline bed, and they must land every skill with both feet hitting the bed simultaneously.
The last stipulation is that they must have the right ending. The gymnast must end their 10-skill routine with both feet on the trampoline; standing upright and in control for three seconds or a deduction is incurred.
In trampoline, gymnasts perform high-flying flips and twists on every bounce. It became an Olympic discipline for the 2000 Olympics, under gymnastics. Participants are both male and female, and must be at least 18 years old by the end of the Olympic year in order to compete.
There is an individual competition for women and for men, with a gold, silver, and bronze awarded in each competition. Athletes use only the trampoline, which is a metal frame surrounding a nylon spring bed.
The trampoline is 3 ft. 9 in. off of the floor, with mats on both sides in case the gymnast comes off of the trampoline. The trampoline is 16 feet, 6 inches long, and 9 feet, 6 inches wide.
In the preliminary round, 16 gymnasts perform a compulsory and voluntary routine with ten skills. The top eight trampolinists move on the final round, where each competes one voluntary routine.
Though the scores from the preliminary round do not carry over, the competition order in the final round is based on preliminary round rankings. The top-ranked athlete in preliminaries has the advantage of going last in finals.
