 Poster: A snowHead
|
Does anyone else trampoline? Do you find it helps with freestyle?
I do but I'm fairly pants tbh, however, I don't do tricks on my board and was wondering if there was much cross over in spins and somersaults? The main difference I can imagine is the forward momentum on a board being the exact opposite of what you are trying on a trampoline, however, I was wondering if the basic movement was the same?

Swirly, There's one real problem with trampoline practice in that it trains you 'push' away to initiate a move or tumble rather than wind up and release within a trajectory. There is a cross-over as long as you use the tramp just as an aid to get airtime and learn how to use your limbs to affect body position and spacial awareness. I'm still ok on a tramp . . . but that makes me complete pants and a danger to myself in the park.
A better option would be if you launched yourself off a horse into a 'crash-pit' from a stance that echoes your board position as you leave the kicker.

Nickski, for some it's to do with getting round the mtn on their board rather than their head

It's good to build your aerial awareness, but it does feel totally different to when you're snowboarding. As Masque says the take off isn't entirely similar either as there is a lot more going on when you take off on a board. What I have seen that looks like it would be good practice is someone on a trampoline with a skateboard strapped onto his feet.
