Lol it’s gravity and physics. Double bounced means two people jumped and tried to land as close to the same time as possible to cause the trampoline to sink lower than it would if one person were jumping. The person getting double bounced sits on the trampoline waiting to be bounced.
Yeah you can bounce yourself while a second person also bounces you at the exact same and so you are double bounced.
Alternatively, you can roll up like an egg while two other people try to bounce you and crack the egg. If two bounces manage to launch you a the same time then that also gets called a double bounce.
Both approaches to being double bounced are absolutely terrifying because you’re feeling twice the force that you expected. So if you’re an emotionally dead adult nostalgically looking back to the last time you felt something then the terror of being double bounced is a good candidate.
Crack the egg was the best! It sounds like you and I had very similar upbringings. Hopefully your uncles didn’t try double bouncing you from a tall balcony as well 😄
The other person doesn’t have to sit down and wait. It’s more about timing. One bounces ever so slightly before the other and one of them ends up getting almost all of the combined momentum making them bounce higher, With the other, having traded that momentum now doesn’t get as much height as normal.
That’s true, I thought the same thing after posting. I still think you get both better results and a better experience if the third person is sitting. You’re definitely right about the timing though. To maximize results you have to very slightly stagger the landing. That’s really something kids learn fairly quickly after some trial and error.
