Plum - The Bowl Trampoline

Product Information

The only hard part is the installation: you’ll probably need a day to dig the hole, and another half day (with helpers) to get it all set up. It might be a better idea to pay for Capital Play’s own installation service. Industry-leading trampoline safety features, such as a springless design, a net that flexes when jumped into, a mat with no hard edges and the use of enclosure rods instead of metal trampoline poles. The frame should be made of galvanised steel (ideally with weld-free construction) to ensure that it won’t rust and will cope with the stress of people jumping on it day after day. The enclosure should be strong and weather-resistant and fit securely to the trampoline frame using padded poles – these prevent jumpers from landing on the springs and frame without compromising on the amount of jumping space. Of all the trampolines we’ve had, the Plum Freebound Bowl Trampoline is by far the quietest and has won over the kids the most, which is a godsend, especially during school holidays! AND it’s actually perfect for having a few kids on the trampoline at once! ✓ The trampoline turned into a central playspace Trampolines above the ground usually provide a higher bounce than in-ground units. This is something to consider when deciding on the shape and the main purpose of the trampoline.

It’s safe, secure and my kids were blown away. I just loved how the kids kept gravitating towards the trampoline as a general play space for all sorts of gameplay.” ✓ Curved for more bounce appealThis depends on the single jumper weight capacity, or trampoline weight limit , recommended by the manufacturer of the trampoline. On this list, the 10 ft trampolines could hold a single jumper weight of 175-375 pounds, and that is a good range to use as a reference. The junior size is a trampoline for kids aged between three and ten years old. These range between a 4.5 ft and 7 ft circumference. Oval trampolines provide a longer jumping range as well. Due to the larger shape, a jumper must work a bit harder to get big jumps. This is great for a leg workout for all ages! At its core, a trampoline is a fairly simple piece of equipment. Using just a few components — mostly fabric, a metal frame, and some springs — a trampoline is capable of producing a tremendous amount of spring. So much so, that when someone jumps up and down on one, they can find themselves propelled surprisingly high into the air. Naturally, this can end up being a whole lot of fun. But as with any activity that involves defying gravity, it can also be quite dangerous.

Yes, because a 12 ft trampoline will be wider, it can hold more weight and has a larger jumping surface than a 10 ft trampoline.Super soft FLX bungees are super silent… Held by a FLX secure clip; 136 bungees work in unison, powered by movement. This Bowl Trampoline® is in a class of its own in terms of safety and style. Thanks to its unique ‘curvilinear’ design, your kids can literally BOUNCE OFF THE WALLS in it. Safely. Securely. And without any fear of running into springs (it’s spring-less after all!). The frame of a round trampoline absorbs the force of each jump, reducing shakiness or unbalance. Round trampolines have a more lightweight frame than other styles. This allows their price point to start lower.

Oval trampolines are a relatively newer shape on the commercial market. They are high performance and perfect for both children and adults alike. A high-quality oval trampoline has a high netting enclosure that keeps the springs separate from the jumping area. Kids from three to six years old can get bouncing on this compact trampoline, and the maximum user weight of 40kg means that it’ll be a while until they outgrow it and need a bigger model. The steel frame is strong and robust, and the 30 steel springs are covered in foam pads to keep them away from children’s prying fingers – and safe from the weather, too.

If dire warnings from medical professionals still aren't enough to dissuade you from buying a trampoline, both El Shami and Petkov have further advice to offer. How to choose the best trampoline for you (and your kids) Should I buy an in-ground or overground trampoline? An in-ground trampoline is a unit that gets installed at ground level. You must dig a hole about 25cm deep that is slightly larger than the diameter of your trampoline. The centre of this dug-out shape is then made deeper to accommodate the bounce. The size of your trampoline determines how deep the centre will be. Because of how the placement of the springs on a square-shaped trampoline, the bounce isn’t as intense as oval or rectangular shaped models. This makes square mats ideal for younger children or multiple users. Bowl Trampoline Shapes Swapping out metal springs for bungee cords keeps the trampoline silent in use. This trampoline shape is perfect for kids that want to literally jump off the walls! Because of the higher weight capacity than other traditional models, this trampoline grows with your children as they do.

The CURV creates a new contour play pattern allowing kids to express themselves through dynamic movement in boundless directions. There should only be one person at a time using the trampoline, regardless of whether this person is a child or an adult, " Petkov said. "Collisions are the main contributing factor to injuries."Reflective Entrance - Seamlessly combining safety with sports-inspired design, the hi-visibility entrance with YKK zip secures the enclosure during use. Round is the most popular shape: it’s the cheapest to make, and the bounce is light and easy in the middle. Hexagonal designs are a fun alternative and offer the same kind of bounce. A rectangular trampoline will suit those more serious about gymnastics, as they offer the best quality of bounce to achieve high jumps, while oval trampolines are great for narrower gardens – and for multiple jumpers, as bouncers don’t all tend to gravitate towards the middle. Octagonal trampolines also give a more predictable vertical bounce. What size should I get? Poles that curve away from the safety net don’t just look the business, they mean more room for jumping and a reduced risk of injury. This 10ft beauty is perfect for medium-sized yards and the safety net is designed to withstand harsh Aussie conditions. According to Raising Children, kids should be six years old before jumping on large trampolines due to the risk of falling and injuries from repetitive jumping on their growing bodies. Toddler-style trampolines with less bounce and a handlebar are a safer choice for younger kids. Is jumping on a trampoline good exercise for kids?
