Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with looking for potential indicators of correct technique of bounce concerning a tucked forward somersault on the base of relations between time characteristics of instantaneous forces in a vertical and horizontal plane in a realization phase of the bounce. Our test-group was created by 13 students of Faculty of Sport. We used statistical significance of Spearman correlation coefficients p ≤ 0,05 as a method for judging whether or not a particular ratio of the impulses of forces in the vertical and horizontal plane represents a suitable indicator of correct technique of bounce. We assumed that some of the observed ratios will represent the potential indicator of correct technique of bounce.
