In response to the cartwheel part - here's a possible explanation. It's from a pretty clearly biased source, but it does sound reasonable. http://perugia-shock.blogspot.com/2009/03/amanda-knox-finally-admits.html

At the very least I doubt she was leaping around exuberantly and spontaenously.

From the link you give:

She told him she could go even more and showed him. He asked why she was so good at stretching and she explained she had been doing gymnastic when she was younger. So he asked her if she could do the other things, the cartwheel, the split, the bridge and she showed him.

Thanks for this - one more mystery solved.
