INFORMATION ON THE USE OF THE TRAMPOLINE:
INITIALLY, you should get accustomed to your trampoline and understand how much it bounces when you jump.The
focus at this point should be body position and technique until each skill can be completed with ease and
control.
SALTO'S: Do not perform somersaults of any type (backward or forwards) on this trampoline.
If you make a mistake when trying to perform a somersault, you could land on your head or
neck. This will increase your chances of your neck or back being broken, which can result in
paralysis.
FOREIGN OBJECTS: Do not use the trampoline if there are pets, other people, or any other
objects underneath the trampoline. This will increase the chance of an injury occuring. Do
not hold any foreign objects in our hand and do not place any objects on the trampoline while
being used. Do not place the trampoline under over-hanging objects like tree branches, wires,
etc. as these will increase your chances of being injured.
POOR MAINTENANCE OF TRAMPOLINE: A trampoline in poor condition will increase your
risk of being injured. Please inspect the trampoline before each use for bent steel tubes, torn
mat, loose or broken spings and overall stability of the trampoline.
WEATHER CONDITIONS: Please be aware of the weather conditions when using the tram-
poline. If the mat of the trampoline is wet, the user could slip and injure himself / herself. If it is
too windy, the user could lose control. In some countries in the winter season the trampoline
can be damaged by snow and low temperatures. We recommend to remove the snow and
store the mat and housing inside.
RESTRICTED ACCESS: When the trampoline is not in use, always store the access ladder in
a secure place, so that the unsupervised children cannot play on the trampoline.
BEFORE YOU TRY TO JUMP TOO HIGH the technique for stopping should be learnt as
this will help prevent injury, should you feel you are jumping out of control.
As the user lands on the bed, knees should be bent so that they can stop and absorb the
bounce in the mat. The position is shown in the image on the left. Arms are held out for
increased level of balance.
These skills are used when the trampoline user wishes to stop bouncing on the trampoli-
ne due to fatigue, loss of control etc.
