Trampoline-brain tripping out

So today I was at Woodward bouncing on the super tramp. Just throwing some mellow flips. Went for a cork 9 or 7. Whatever came around. Nothing I haven't done before. Suddenly in midair my brain like spazzed out and I didn't know what was going on. Then I land on my side and my brain really tripped out. I had the weirdest sensation I've ever had in my life. For a few seconds the entire room flipped sideways. The tramp was now the wall and the wall the floor. I seriously freaked out. I thought I was going to fall the 12ish feet to the ground and break my ankles. It felt like I was bouncing on my side against the wall. I was like closing the tramp trying not the hit the "floor" which was actually the wall.

Unfortunately I was too out of it to watch the instan replay in time. But people standing around said it was really funny to watch. Cause I was like terrified an clawing at the tramp just bouncing on my side. They said I had legit fear in my eyes. Cause I thought I was falling for sure.

Has anyone else had this or anything like this happen to them? Seriously most trippy moment of my life

One time I set cork 12 on tramp place where there are tramps up the walls, and as I was trying to spot I saw the tramp on the wall and my brain freaked out and I didn't know what was the wall or what was the ground, and then I fell on my side and I thought I was on the wall and I didn't know what the fuck was going on. After a second I oriented myself but that was a truly strange feeling.

Basically you just lost focus and forgot what you were doing. It happens. I did the exact same thing this past summer. I stopped paying attention to what I was doing and sort of set a backflip and freaked out in the air when I realized what I was doing. I was bouncing pretty big, too. Had the air awareness to twist around to spot, then land on my back. Scariest back bounce ever.

This. I went to a place that had tramps on the wall, I didn't have problems with corks or any other trick but whenever I tried to do layed out backies I would spot for the landing (which ended up being the wall) and I would get ready to land then Keep falling and land flat on my face, sketchiest feeling ever and it happened more then once, I almost felt like I had to over spin to do a backy, those places trip my brain out. As for OP what were you smoking that day???

I tried to spin a flat 10 in the dark on my backyard tramp, thought I was coming around fine but really spotted a tree instead of the tramp and landed right on my face. I never felt myself go off axis but I sure did.

No. Not at all. I know that feeling too. It was nothing of the sort. This was the weirdest sensation I've ever experienced. And lasted after I had already landed. For a second many be 2. Something literally tripped out in my brain. Idk if I hit it weird or something earlier that day and didnt realize it or what.

Maybe a little crazy but it could have been your brain releasing a small amount of dmt because for some reason your subconscious mind was preparing for death...

went for a backflip to back drop (flip and a half) for the 3rd or 4th time ever, was bouncing chill, and tossed the rotation backwards. decided to pull out into back drop as i felt slow, realized that it was a different rotation than doing a back flip puss out, and landed direct on my head. lucky i didnt kill myself.

Being high and throwing cork 9s while spotting the wrong tramp on the wall must be some experience....Not as trippy as above, but friend and me placed a big torchlight under a tramp (tramp is ground level, over a whole) at night, which made the tramp pretty much invisble. Throwing backys was scary as shit.

this has happened to me a bunch of times at woodward on the super...such a crazy feeling. i've started to face certain ways for certain tricks to avoid it haha. the wall used to be yellow and it was really bad because it looked like the pads then we painted it gray but it looked like the bed then ha so the current paint is definitely the best set up

This happens to me from time to time. Kinda just get too used to what I'm doing, then halfway through a flip realize "Damn, I could land on my neck right now" which causes a major freakout mid air. Doesn't happen often, and scares the crap outa me everytime.

One time I was on my friend tramp which can bounce you fucking high, and he was double bouncing me, and then I started moving towards him, so I leaned back so that on the next bounce I would move back to the middle, and I slipped out and went fucking flying backwards, then my other friend was rolling another tramp up next to one I was on, and in mid air I thought the rolling one was the one I was on, so I oriented myself so that I would land on that one and ended up landing right on the back of my neck... let's just say it scared the shit out of me

Think about your breathing? Could have starved your brain of oxygen.

Had what I would discribe similarly after holding in a bong hit for too long.

I did a similar thing at a place that had trampolines on the walls. Just throwing a laid out cork sev and I thought the wall tramp was the tramp on the ground and landed straight on my face.

Happened to me once. I'm at bounce in whistler and they have this "halfpipe" sort of thing with trampolines and i was just bouncing off the walls and stuff, I did a few backflips off the wall and then when I did just a regular backflip, my brain spotted the side tramp as the landing but still managed to spin it around to my feet. So disorientating

Sometimes I am just bouncing around when Idecide to do something. Usually the something is a flip, so I throw it and then spazz out flail my arms and fall to the ground having not completed the flip. Its pretty scary.

I once did a bio 10 and spotted the wall instead of the tramp. So i just put my feet to land on the wall and landed sideways on the tramp. I guess it was kinda like you, its a trick i've been doing for years but went wrong that one time for no reason.

I've definitely had a few moments where my mind just told all my other senses to fuck off, it can be kind of scary.

Tried tramping while sleepy once. Could see the landing, saw nothing in the air, didn't feel anything in the air. It was interesting.
