Family Trampoline

Multiple Jumpers: If you have multiple jumpers (more than on person on the trampoline at any
one time), you increase the chance of getting injured. Injuries could occur when you fly off the
tram poline, lose control, collide with the other jumper(s), or land on the springs. Generally, the
lightest person on the trampoline will get injured.
Striking the Frame or Springs: When playing on the trampoline, STAY in the center of the mat. This
will reduce your risk of getting injured by landing on the frame or springs. Always keep the frame
pad covering the frame of the trampoline. DO NOT jump or step onto the frame pad directly since
it was not intended to support the weight of a person.
Loss of Control: DO NOT try difficult maneuvers, or any maneuver until you have mastered the
previous maneuver, or if you are just learning how to jump on a trampoline. If you do, you will
increase your risk of getting injured by landing on the frame, springs, or off the trampoline
completely because you might lose control of your jump. A controlled jump is considered landing
on the same spot that you took off from. If you do lose control when you are jumping on the
trampoline, bend your knees sharply when you land and this will allow you to regain control and
stop your jump.
Somersaults (Flips): DO NOT PERFORM somersaults of any type (backwards 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 getting your neck or back broken, which will
result in death or paralysis.
Foreign Objects: DO NOT use the trampoline if there are pet, other people, or any objects
underneath the trampoline. This will increase the chances of an injury occurring. DO NOT hold any
foreign objects in your hand and DO NOT place any objects on the trampoline while anyone is
playing on it. Please be aware of what is overhead when you are playing on the trampoline.
Tree limbs, wires, of other objects located over the trampoline will increase your chances of
getting injured.
Poor Maintenance of Trampoline: A trampoline in poor condition will increase your risk of getting
injured. Please inspect the trampoline before each use for bent steel tubes, torn mat, loose or
broken springs, and overall stability of the trampoline.
Weather Conditions: Please be aware of the weather conditions when using the trampoline. If the
mat of the trampoline is wet, the jumper could slip and injure him or herself. If it is too windy,
jumpers could lose control.
Limiting Access: When the trampoline is not in use, always store any access ladder in a secure
place so that unsupervised children cannot play on the trampoline.
