Chinese dominated Trampoline World Cup in Kunshan

3rd F.I.G Trampoline World Cup
Kinshan / China

China have dominated the 3rd Trampoline World Cup in Kunshan, China's east Jiangsu province. Chinese athletes bounced their way to all the important medals in the men's and women's individual events.
China's rookie Dong Dong conquered the audience and referees with his perfect performance to take the men's individual event....

... He also won the gold at the second event in Canada recently. His teammate Lu Chunlong took the silver.
In the women's event, Chinese Zhong Xingping won the gold, with her teammate Huang Shanshan second. Huang Shanshan won the bronze in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.

In the individual events, along with Olympic men's champion Ukrain Yuri Nikitin and defending women's champion Karen Cockburn, Chinese trampoliners managed to make the best use of their home advantage on Saturday afternoon.

... the other disciplines:
Toronto's Karen Cockburn turned in a gutsy performance at a synchronized trampoline event Saturday, overcoming a leg injury to win a sixth straight World Cup title with partner Rosannagh MacLennan.

Japan took the men's synchronized events, Russia bagged the gold and the silver in the women's tumbling event, and China's Jiang Yiqi and Gu Qingwen took the bronze in the women's synchronized events
