After assembling the trampoline, it is essential to carry out the following safety
checks/investigations:
As the risk of injury is very high among inexperienced jumpers, it is important to learn basic
jumping techniques.
Use a screwdriver to check that all screws are tight.
Look underneath the trampoline and check that all springs are securely in the frame
and that the triangular eyelets in the mat are hooked.
Wobble the trampoline and check that the frame is stable. The ground must be
even.
Make sure that the cover mats cover the springs and frame completely and that the
bands are securely attached.

Cancellation manoeuvre
The jumper may occasionally lose control of their jump. By carrying out the
cancellation manoeuvre, the jumper can regain control of their jump and balance.
Start with the basic jump.
Pull your knees up on landing. That’s how to cancel your jump.
