Chriss Triplett grew up in the greater Chicago area where he discovered his love for tumbling and trampoline. He began to train with the Easy Tumblers stunt team, and soon moved on to their competition squad. In 1990, at the age of six, Chriss placed first in the U.S.T.A. (United States Trampoline and Tumbling Association) national competition. He cheered one year in high school, and was also the school mascot. Chriss attended college near Xenia Ohio then later moved officially to Ohio in 2006. Chriss has been coaching at Hand 2 Hand for over a year, and has managed to perform in a circus and travel with a Christian band all at the same time! ?I am very fortunate to enjoy my job! I like the coaches and staff that I work with and I love the kids! These children have inspired and taught me so much about life and I am very grateful!?
