Springfree™ Trampoline Model SF90E Trampoline and Enclosure Assembly, Installation, Care, Maintenance and Use Instructions Version 6.4
THE FRONT DROP
Contact with the trampoline bed should simul-
taneously take place with your hands, elbows,
chest, stomach, hips, and knees. Knees should
be bent.
You must come down level. If the landing
is made irst on your chest and arms, they will
rebound before your knees hit which will result
in a straining action on your back. If this type
of landing is made with a traveling, diving
approach there is a chance that your elbows
may become skinned. If the landing is made so
that your knees and hips hit irst, then they will
rebound and your shoulders and face will land
heavily.
