Plum - The Bowl Trampoline

Product Information

Key specs – Sizes: 4 circular (8ft, 10ft, 12ft, 14ft) and 3 rectangular (10 x 6ft, 11 x 8ft, 14 x 10ft); Frame: Galvanised steel; Safety netting included: No; Warranty: 10 years for frame and retaining wall, 5 years for jump mat and springs, 2 years for padding One downside to consider about above-ground models is the aesthetic appeal of your yard. Above-ground trampolines require rotating if they sit above grass or other greenery. Sunlight and weather will eventually cause your trampoline to fade, so regular maintenance is important to keep your trampoline looking fresh and appealing in your garden area. As the name implies, Springfree Trampolines have done away with the traditional springs found on most trampolines in an effort to improve all-around safety. Instead, these models use flexible rods to provide spring and bounce, but in a safer and more controlled manner. Those rods are positioned below the jumping surface as well, preventing jumpers from accidentally landing on one following a wayward bounce.

Once installed, the trampoline sits at ground level and users just need to step on it and start bouncing! Because of the reduced height there are fewer safety concerns. This might have a more aesthetically pleasing look to you, depending on how you want your yard area to appear.

TYPE

Kids from three to six years old can get bouncing on this compact trampoline, and the maximum user weight of 40kg means that it’ll be a while until they outgrow it and need a bigger model. The steel frame is strong and robust, and the 30 steel springs are covered in foam pads to keep them away from children’s prying fingers – and safe from the weather, too. According to the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System, more than 100,000 trampoline injuries are treated in the US every year. Of those, about 85% occur in children, underscoring just how hazardous these apparatuses can be for young people. Most of the sustained injuries involve broken bones, although head and abdominal trauma are also frequent occurrences. Naturally, this created quite a bit of controversy surrounding the use and ownership of trampolines.

It is advised for those buying larger trampolines for their garden to have a 24-foot clear space from the ground up so you won’t get tangled into anything when bouncing away. The CURV creates a new contour play pattern encouraging dynamic movement in boundless directions. Think Trampoline Park, Skate Bowl and Velodrome; this new jumping mat innovation changes the way children bounce, allowing them to use both the flat mat centre and trampoline walls.Oval trampolines are a relatively newer shape on the commercial market. They are high performance and perfect for both children and adults alike. A high-quality oval trampoline has a high netting enclosure that keeps the springs separate from the jumping area. Beyond the bounce, there are factors like safety, quality, weight capacity, design and price, among others, that must be considered to get the right trampoline for your family. It’s a traditional-style trampoline with lots of fab modern twists. The HyperJump3 has reinforced netting for wayward jumping, zipless doors and UV-protected foam safety pads. There’s a comfy step ladder for easy on and off and enhanced ‘smart feet’ for non-slip jumping.

This prototype was first constructed from inner tubes, iron, and canvas. Eventually, springs replaced the inner tubes to provide the needed bounce.

Is jumping on a trampoline good exercise for kids?

A good example of this is the company's 12-Foot Round model, which on the surface, looks a lot like most other trampolines you might find from a variety of manufacturers. But Skywalker has equipped this unit with a full net enclosure that prevents both kids and adults from suffering serious injuries. This mesh netting has a "no-gap" design, which means there aren't any exposed entry points that someone could accidentally fall through. This Bowl Trampoline® is in a class of its own in terms of safety and style. Thanks to its unique ‘curvilinear’ design, your kids can literally BOUNCE OFF THE WALLS in it. Safely. Securely. And without any fear of running into springs (it’s spring-less after all!).
