How to approach it
The productive route is to brainstorm by environment rather than by alphabetical recall. List every setting where a body can leave a surface — sprung floors, water, snow, open air, ropes, animals, machines — then ask of each setting whether the sport exists because of the rotation or merely tolerates it. That filter removes a lot of near misses. Next, push each surviving entry toward its most precise official label: the reveal plainly rewards narrow sub-discipline names over the umbrella terms most players type first. Finally, sort the shortlist by how obscure each label feels and commit to the strangest one you could still defend in a single sentence, because rarity is the entire scoring engine here.
Get a hint
Start with every activity whose result depends on what happens between take-off and landing, then ask whether turning over is required rather than merely allowed.
A little more
Split the field by setting: some happen on sprung surfaces, others over water, snow, ramps or open air, and each setting has its own vocabulary for the very same rotation.
One step further
Narrow to disciplines where a judge or a score sheet rewards the number of rotations, the axis of the turn or the height gained, since those match the wording most exactly.

Why these answers count
Scoring here tracks specificity almost perfectly. The single hundred-point entry, Course landaise at 100, is a regional form few outsiders could name, and it sits alone at the top precisely because the dataset held no rival for that slot. Everything else that cleared the bar landed at 85: precise, official sub-discipline labels such as 1 m springboard, Acrobatic rock and roll, Double mini trampoline or Death diving. Each of those describes one narrow competitive format rather than a whole sport, which is why they paid far better than the plain umbrella words sitting in the 60-point band. The 60 tier is where the obvious generic labels cluster, and with 140 answers sharing 85 and only 47 sharing 60, the arithmetic is unambiguous: the crowd types the family name, the points go to whoever names the branch. Rarity, not correctness, separated the winners.
