So, one of my hobby's is trampoline-jumping. (don't know if that's a correct english verb, but it's jumping involving a trampoline, as you might have guessed.)

I made a little promotion video from our annual gym-party, and it's downloadable at:

http://users.pandora.be/history/5CD/trampolinefinal.wmv

It's a 8.95 Mb WMV, but it's worth a look.

Tell me what you think. Most of the jumps are performed by me, except the one where my friend made a mistake (the slow-mo) ... almost broke his neck ^^

Darude - Sandstorm

On the party itself, we jumped on music from Praga Khan (frontman @ Lords Of Acid), but by all my cut and paste work that music became incoherent, and I just used a new audio track.

being a disco freak that i am, you can prolly imagine why this appeals to me :smile:

this song sounds pop/disco/synthomix, but no matter its designation, it has won me over :biggrin:

Darude = cheese

It's good cheese, but cheese nonetheless.

However, trampoline jumping? Is this a big thing? And how long until it becomes an Olympic sport?

Badminton is an Olympic sport, and has as much right to be there as any event apart from the classic track and field ones :razz:
