It consisted of five
tumbling passes and it was competed on 84-foot long panel mats. For years, the FIT and the IFSA
competed in their versions of tumbling at their World
Championships. Some countries adopted and competed with IFSA
tumbling while other countries went with the FIT tumbling, and
some countries competed in both.
In 1981, the World Games
adopted tumbling into its competitions. Tumbling continues to be
competed at the World Games every four years.
In
1999, the FIT merged with the International Gymnastics
Federation F.I.G..
All international tumbling competitions are currently housed under
the FIG as one of the disciplines of the Sport of Trampoline.
Through the years the sport of
tumbling was competed on gym floors, panel mats, ski floor, and
spring floors, and is now competed on a rod floor.
Today's competitors complete passes with up to three double
somersaults and double somersaults with twists, and even triple
somersaults.
