10 Trampoline

Trampolines helped realize our longstanding dream of defying gravity, albeit for a few seconds. The thrill one experiences when jumping on a trampoline is something unique. Modern trampolines use a taught fabric, attached to a metal frame with the help of springs. The fabric and springs combined, can toss a person up into the air as high as 10 meters!

However, trampolining is not an all frills experience. Trampoline related accidents are a cause of severe concern all around the world. Since a majority of trampoline users are children, the injuries can be fatal. Very often, these accidents take place when safety rules are ignored. Placing the trampoline near an obstruction, trying new and awkward tricks, and people falling off the trampoline are the general causes of accidents.

Trampoline safety nets are a good way to prevent such occurrences. The concept of a trampoline safety net has been derived from the safety net used commonly by trapeze artists. The safety net is of two types, either attached or freestanding. The attached nets are more secure and safer than the freestanding ones. The support rods of the net are usually made out of a galvanized metal to avoid rusting. Stainless steel and zinc are the most commonly used supports. These metal bars are padded so as to prevent any injury if the user happens to collide with the structure. The bars are firmly attached to the legs of the trampoline, making the net extremely sturdy. The net is made from a strong synthetic substance.

These safety nets are available for trampolines of all shapes and sizes. The safety net prevents the person from falling off the trampoline and also induces confidence in first-time users. However, there are those who oppose the use of safety nets by claiming that the device induces a false sense of security. Children are likely to be left unsupervised, which may again result in accidents. Good quality safety net prices start at $150 and can go up depending on the quality and size.
