At trampoline association Triffis Alkmaar they expect a lot from Thalissa Wijkstra. The thirteen-year-old gymnast is bursting with talent and explains her most difficult jump. “I’ve been working on it for three years.”
“In the first somersault you do a full twist and in the other somersault a half twist”, says Thalissa Wijkstra about her most difficult jump. “It gives a very nice feeling.”
Wijkstra’s jump is part of episode 5 of ‘The Beauty of Sport’† A six-part series, in which a different sport is central every week. This Monday at 5.10 pm the last episode of NH can be seen on TV, this time with all the attention for equestrian sports.
