Trampoline Safety 

Trampolines can be enjoyed safely by everyone in the family. Studies have shown you are more likely to be injured or hospitalized by riding a bicycle then by bouncing on a trampoline. 

To minimize injuries we at trampoline-parts.com believe it is mandatory to have a quality safety pad which cover all the springs & that there are no holes in the mat.  Enclosures should also be used, especially for young children. 

Please watch for the following basic precautions:

1. Ensure that your trampoline is properly assembled in a level area with at least 10 unobstructed feet (3 meters) on all sides and a minimum of 20 unobstructed feet (6 meters) above the trampoline bouncing surface. The area directly below the bouncing surface must be kept clear at all times.

2. Perform the 'Stop Bounce' after every skill or sequence of skills, or whenever you deviate from the center of the trampoline.

3. Never jump off at trampoline, always climb off.

4. Keep your bouncing low and under control. Consistently land in the center of the trampoline.

5. Allow only one person on the trampoline at a time. The #1 reason for trampoline injuries is collision on a trampoline.

6. Do not leave children unsupervised on the trampoline.

7. Avoid bouncing for long periods of time and do not bounce when you are tired.

8. Do not use your backyard trampoline when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

9. Ensure the spotters are always stationed around the trampoline.

10. Master the specified pre-requisites before attempting a new skill.

11. Do not attempt back flips (back somersaults), multiple somersaults or twisting somersaults on your backyard trampoline.

Dear Owners: be safe and not sorry. Common sense safety rules are a requirement in all sports. A trampoline used properly and sensibly is excellent recreation... for all ages.
