• Keep the trampoline a safe distance from other objects

• Only allow one child at a time to avoid collisions

Trampolining is fun – but please observe caution and good sense when on it.

Trampolines come in a variety of sizes – the average is a round one in the range of 8-10 feet.  Look at the area where you will be placing the trampoline.  Leave a good distance between it and walls, buildings, trees etc.

Consider who will be using the trampoline – children, adults, teenagers?  Will there be several on at one time?  If so then look at the weight allowances of the trampolines you are interested in.

So decide on what you are after before looking.  Once you know the size, who will be using it, and any weight considerations then you can start to look for a trampoline.

Search online and review the different models, the materials, the safety features, the weight limitations, the size – all the considerations you have to make when buying a trampoline.

If you are ready to buy – shop around for the best prices and look at shipping costs too.  There may be accessories for your trampoline so decide if you will need any of these – ladders, nets, mats etc.

It is advisable to choose a dealer who offers replacement parts in the event that you need them.

Once you receive the trampoline then always read and review the manual and safety instructions before setting it up.

Pick a permanent spot for the trampoline. This should be a place that is easily accessible and easy to monitor if there will be children using it. Choose the right size trampoline for the space. A small trampoline in a big space might not take full advantage of the area, while a large trampoline in a small space could look out of place and cramped. Safety should also be considered here. Are there trees nearby that may have branches overhanging? Are there rocks underneath or a wall on the side? The safety of the jumper should always be taken into consideration so that a small accident doesn’t become something more serious.

Start off with a flat even foundation. If the ground is uneven, local nurseries sell sand or dirt which can be used to fill in holes and smooth out the surface. The supplemental dirt should be packed in, in order to avoid sinking later on. Clear away any rocks or sharp objects around the perimeter of the base. Cut away branches and foliage that overhang near the trampoline.

Put together the base poles all around. These poles should snap into one another. Each set should be securely in place. After the base is set up, start attaching the springs. This is where the second person can be extremely helpful. The best way to do it is to find two points directly across from each other. Each person attaches a spring at that point and pulls the net over. Count about three spring slots over in opposite directions and do the same. Continue this clockwork motion until all the springs are attached and the net is tightly secured evenly around the trampoline. Another alternative is to attach the springs in a cross like formation. Start at the same two points. Instead of counting three spring slots, find the slots directly across from each other that form an X or a cross with the first one. This is much like cutting a pie in half and then in half again. Continue this process until you have all of the springs secured.

How does this exercise actually improve the eyes, and how can one exercise to get that maximum benefit? There are actually a few different opinions on these questions, and it’s too much to cover even in a chapter, but some of the basic ideas are as follows:

Any kind of exercise that’s positive will have positive benefits on the entire body. Getting the body to move means that all of the cells are moving, and this can help keep the tissues vibrant, flexible, and strong. Jumping is then very good for the eyes, because the eyes are made of cells, like anything else, and the movement stimulates growth and development. But this kind of low-impact exercise also helps people to relax, and move more freely, like a child. This can help with vision according to some schools of thought, because the eyes tend to tense up to focus, when natural vision is unfocused.

There was an eye doctor named William Horatio Bates who, in the early 20th century, came out with some findings about vision that are often used in the arguments supporting rebounding and improved sight. He felt that corrective lenses were not necessary at all, and people merely needed to learn how to use their eyes again. This included exercising them, just like every other part of the body needs exercise.

Although his theories are very interesting, and even encouraging, they have not held up very well in light of contemporary medical findings. There may be some truth to it, and there are no real formal ways of exercising the eyes with the trampoline, so the best way to test the theory is to start bouncing and learn to enjoy it. Fortunately, that’s not difficult to do.

Because most trampolines for private homes are used outdoors, the galvanized steel helps to keep the frame from rusting, as well as offering protection from other natural conditions. Springs are usually made by a separate company on order from a trampoline manufacturer.

The safety pads are usually outsourced as well, according to the manufacturer’s specifications, covering the springs and frame and consisting of foam. Vinyl covers and straps are used to attach the pads to the frame. The jumping pads are made of artificial fibers, such as nylon or polyethylene. This woven, heavy fabric is protected to prevent them from fading with outdoor use.

The earliest trampolines may have been used by the Inuit people, who used walrus skin to toss each other into the air. In Europe, this type of blanket-trampolining was recorded in plays and novels of the time; however, such instances were largely forced by mobs on a hapless victim. True trampolining seems to have come into existence with acrobats and the circus. One piece of folklore suggests the device was invented by a trapeze artist known as du Trampolin, who saw the possibilities of a trampoline as a type of safety net, using it both to propel an acrobat and to help secure a landing. Chances are good, though, that du Trampolin didn’t exist; at least, there’s no real record of him.

The first real trampoline was created in the early part of the 20th Century, in 1936, by gymnasts at the University of Iowa. The first trampolines were made out of a piece of canvas attached to an iron frame, using coiled springs to provide the bounce. In 1942, the gymnasts, George Nissen and Larry Griswold, created the first trampoline company, the Griswold-Nissen Trampoline & Tumbling Company. They named it a trampoline for the Spanish word trampolin, which means diving board. Once the first trampolines were built, a new sport was born: trampolining, or as it was then known, rebound tumbling.
