Trampoline safety net and enclosure

Trampoline safety net and enclosure

Trampolines are a great way to have fun, burn some extra calories and have some quality family time. However,  to avoid injury it is important to consider the safety features of any trampoline you purchase. One key aspect of a safer trampoline is the trampoline safety net and enclosure.

Here we look at why a good quality trampoline safety net and enclosure provides a safer jumping experience and added peace of mind for you and your family.

What is a trampoline safety net and enclosure?

A trampoline enclosure is a safety net that surrounds the trampoline and is designed to reduce possible fall-related injuries.  Metal poles, covered in a protective foam sleeve keep the net up.  The enclosure net goes around the trampoline and extends beyond the height of the person bouncing.

A superior trampoline safety net and enclosure

Some safety enclosures offer better protection than others. The best-quality trampoline enclosures offer the following features:

  • Made from quality material:
    The net should be made from a high-quality, durable mesh that can withstand a large amount of applied force. The material should be soft enough so that it does not burn or scrape the user upon impact
  • Be durable:
    The material should be UV resistant to stop deterioration.
  • Foam-protected supports:
    The net attaches to the trampoline using upright steel supports. To provide a stable and safe net framework the steel supports should be foam-padded and anchored at the base of the trampoline.
  • Isolated from the springs:

    Perhaps the most important feature is for the net to attach to the inside of the springs. This isolates the trampoline user from the dangers of landing outside the jumping mat limit. A North Trampoline safety net features a patented, zero-gap zipped enclosure to avoid any spring contact.

  • Be adequately high:

    The net should be high enough that even the biggest of leaps are safe to do

  • Cannot remain open:

    The best net enclosures feature a self-closing mechanism that does not allow the user to leave it open and hence avoid any opportunity to fall out of the trampoline.

  • Cannot become detached:

    The safety net must securely attach to the trampoline.  The North Trampoline safety net features a patented fixation system that keeps the net in constant high tension, to significantly increase the safety of the bouncer

Trampoline enclosure: a necessary safety feature

Before you buy a trampoline, it is important to make sure it comes with an enclosure net. Whist nowadays a safety net is a common feature on a trampoline, sometimes they do not come as a standard inclusion and must be purchased separately.

A trampoline safety net is a must-have trampoline accessory it will prevent the user from falling off the trampoline and will help protect against injury.

Prevents falling off

One of the most important benefits of having a safety net on a trampoline is that they help from the bouncer falling off the trampoline. A trampoline safety net is there to catch the jumper and either move them back into the trampoline or provide them with a safe platform to fall upon. A North Trampoline safety net features a safety belt that directs the jumper back to the jump mat.

Protect against injury

A good quality safety net will prevent the jumper falling into  the trampoline springs. It will also significantly reduce the chance of hitting frame poles.  The soft, synthetic material  used to make the trampoline safety nets helps to avoid burns and bruises because it enables the jumper to slide against it.

Stop fall outs

Some trampoline enclosures use Velcro or a sewn-on zip to seal their enclosure doors. Unfortunately these can remain open when a jumpers go in and out of the trampoline. Additionally, they are at risk of not maintaining their integrity if the user lands on top of them.  The best enclosure doors, like those on a North Trampoline, are those with a self-closing mechanism. A flexible and reinforced overlap in the net allows easy entry and exit whilst also remaining closed behind the bouncer.

Tips to stay safe on your trampoline

It is important to keep in mind that trampoline safety nets cannot replace adult supervision or safe trampoline practice.

Always jump in the middle of the trampoline. Avoid bouncing with other people on the trampoline at the same time. Do not place anything below the trampoline when you are jumping.

Your trampoline enclosure net should not be purposely used as a rebounding surface, either from the inside or outside.

It is important to periodically check the netting to ensure there is no damage or holes in the net.

Trampoline weight limit and why they are important

Trampoline weight limit explained

Just before stepping onto a trampoline, have you ever wondered about its weight limit?

Jumping on a trampoline is a wonderful, fun activity. However, there are some considerations you should take before buying and using one and its weight limit is one of them!

You don’t want your trampoline to break and you certainly don’t want your children to break! Before you step onto the trampoline to join your kids or allow more than one child to jump together you need to think about the trampoline weight limit. Here we explain why its an important consideration.

This article looks at:

  • What happens if you go over the weight limit on a trampoline?
  • Why is it important to know weight limits
  • Why do we need a weight limit on a trampoline?
  • Factors affecting the weight limit

What happens if you go over the weight limit?

If you go over the weight limit on a trampoline, you could damage the trampoline’s mat and springs/bungee cords, causing the whole equipment to break. This may cause injury to anyone using the trampoline at the time of breakage. Additionally, an overloaded trampoline may be more difficult to jump on, which could also lead to falls and injuries.

Even if the trampoline doesn’t break immediately, consistently overloading the equipment may cause extensive wear and tear on the springs/bungee cords and the mat, decreasing the trampoline’s overall lifespan. You might have to keep on replacing the broken parts, which can be quite expensive.

 

Why is it important to know weight limits

Trampolines have a weight limit because the frame and mat can only support so much weight before they become damaged or break.

North Trampolines that we stock at Jump Fitness Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, have a recommended single-user weight of 110kg (242lbs), and they are safety tested up to 750kg (1,650lbs)

Although we always advise that there should only be one person jumping on the trampoline at any one time, we do understand that there may be times when several people get on the trampoline together.

In these situations, when there is more than one person on the trampoline, the combined weight of each person should not exceed the official recommendations. This is particularly important, in situations where more than one person bounces hard, at the same time.  Therefore, not only does knowing the maximum weight limit become important from a safety aspect, but it also helps you to make informed decisions before you buy a trampoline.

Why do we need a weight limit on a trampoline?

You might be wondering why that if we’ve got some of the most sturdy, reliable trampolines in the industry, why are we so conscious of weight limits? Let us explain why.

Safety

 

Safety is the top reason for a weight limit on a trampoline. Exceeding the weight limit set by the manufacturer is a major safety concern.  If the trampoline is overloaded, it could collapse, which could cause injuries.

Longevity

No one wants their trampoline to break after just a few years.  If you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and treat your trampoline well, then it will last you longer.

Meet industry standards

When a manufacturer tests for and sets a weight limit they are abiding by industry standards.  CE and ASTM European industry standards require the manufacturer to inform buyers of the trampoline weight limit, i.e. how much weight a trampoline can hold. This is why trampoline weight limits are advised in the user manual.

In order for the trampoline warranty to remain valid, it is important for the user not to exceed the recommended user limit set by the manufacturer.

Factors affecting the weight limit

There are a number of factors that are taken into consideration when determining the weight capacity trampolines can tolerate.

The factors used to determine the average trampoline weight limit include the size and type, the materials used in its construction, and the intended use.

Size and shape

The size and shape are the main factors that will determine the weight of the jumpers. A smaller trampoline will typically have a lower weight limit than a larger one. In most cases, the bigger the trampoline, the higher the weight capacity it will have. Often, the rectangular shape is able to carry more weight, principally because springs are closer to the central bounce area. Because the springs are nearer, the stiffness doesn’t need to be as strong either.

Material

The materials used to make the trampoline can also affect the weight it can withstand. For instance, a trampoline meant for a heavier person will have more robust springs and a thicker steel frame. Even the jumping pad will have fewer stitching rows. As a rule of thumb, the better the quality of a materials the trampoline is made with the more weight it will be able to take.

Intended Use

The intended use of the trampoline can also play a role in determining its weight limit. For example, trampolines designed for recreational use typically have a lower weight limit than those designed for competitive use.

Trampolines for Teenagers and Adults – find the perfect trampoline

trampoline for teenagers and adults and older children

Should we let you into a little secret? Bouncing on a trampoline isn’t just for little kids! Trampolines are for teenagers and adults too!

Trampolines are an excellent, fun and healthy activity for all ages. However, choosing the right trampoline for you depends on a number of factors. Consider who will be using it, what it will be used for and where it will be situated.  We explored all of these details in our previous blog post “Buying a trampoline in the UAE: what should I look for?

Looking specifically for trampolines for teenagers and adults? Then read this handy guide to help you make the right choice and find the perfect trampoline.

Trampolines for Teenagers

When it comes to choosing trampolines for teenagers and adults, it really does boil down to identifying what they want to do on the trampoline. If they are happy to just enjoy bouncing with friends and family, then both a 3.6m (12ft) round or a 3.5m x 2.45m (12ft x 8ft) oval trampoline are superb options.

If the trampoline is for a teen who wants to do more advanced jumps or tricks, then they will need more space. The mat size is also something to think about if they are interested in trampoline accessories, such as a basketball hoop.

Another consideration when choosing trampolines for teenagers, is the quality of the frame and the recommended weight limit of the jumping mat. Look for a trampoline with exacting test standards and built using high quality materials.  The frame should be heavy duty for extra stability as this allows  for a more powerful bounce.  All of the North Trampolines we stock at Jump Fitness Dubai have an extra sturdy frame and been stress tested to a whopping 750kg (1650llbs) and have a recommended user weight of110kg (243llbs). The high recommended user weight means you can bounce safely in the knowledge that the trampoline will easily accommodate your growing child and teen.

We consider our larger 4.2m (14ft) oval and round trampolines to be great options for teens as they provide more space for jumps, leaps and flips. For a bit of extra room for tricks or for more advanced jumps, opt for our most popular 5m (16ft) oval or  4.7m (15ft) rectangular models.

Trampolines for tricks

All of the trampolines we stock provide sufficient bounce for vaulting and practising tricks.  However, rectangular and oval models are great trampolines for teenagers and adults. This is because these models provide even more bounce compared to the round trampolines.  The elongated surface of an oval trampoline make it a good choice for tricks and acrobatics.  A rectangular trampoline is the gold standard for tricks. Rectangular trampolines  have more springs and offer a good even bounce wherever you are on the trampoline. This makes rectangular trampolines perfect for flips and tumbling.

The two best-selling trampolines, which are loved by the tricking community worldwide, are the 4.7m (15ft) North Explorer rectangle and the 4.7m (15ft) North Performer rectangle trampolines.  The extra boost provided by the North Performer will take your tricks to the next level.

Trampolines for adults and family

By default, all of our trampolines are designed for adults and family fun. The safety features are second to none. Safety features are equally important for both adults and children. Look for a trampoline packed with as many safety features as possible.

Springs are an important consideration when choosing a trampoline for an adult.  A better quality spring means a better quality bounce. The high-quality springs on a North Trampoline are customisable, which means you can adjust them to get the ultimate bounce for your size, weight and ability. This is especially useful if you have lots of bouncers of different ages and sizes.  The feedback we get from adult jumpers is that they love how responsive the bounce is on a North Trampoline.

In our experience families with multiple children or adults who want to jump themselves, tend to choose the bigger models. More space allows for more flexibility when it comes to usage.  As a child grows, a larger model will also provide the option to progress into more advanced jumping. That combined with the customisable springs makes a North Trampoline a great choice. At Jump Fitness the most popular trampolines in the UAE for adults and families are the 5m (16ft) oval or 4.7m (15ft) rectangular models from North Trampoline.

North Trampolines for teenagers and adults

Trampolines are an excellent fun activity for children of all ages. However, if you are looking for trampolines specifically for teenagers and adults, then the Swedish designed ‘North Trampolines’ are a wise choice.

North Trampolines bring you:

  • A higher than average safety net provides extra safety.
  • ‘Adjustable Springs’ mean you can tailor the ‘bounce’ to suit you your family or skills.
  • Extra Safe Enclosed Springs System. All springs are ‘zipped’ away and cannot be accessed or fallen onto by the jumper at all.
  • Most importantly…a seriously good bounce! Many trampolines that are suited to younger kids will have a softer bounce. All North Trampolines have a really deep and high bounce. Jumpers with higher user-weights will have the time of their lives…..these are perfect trampolines for teenagers and adults!  The spring adjusters means all of the trampolines can be adjusted for younger and lighter jumpers.

If you are looking for the best trampolines for teenagers and adults, then look no further than a North Trampoline! They are the safest, sturdiest trampolines on the market with an incredible bounce!

Round vs Rectangular Trampolines: Which trampoline is best for you?

Rectangular vs round trampoline

Choosing the right shape of trampoline for the family can be a confusing process! So, to give you a helping hand, we have compared two of the most common shapes — round vs rectangular trampolines.

There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing the best shape of trampoline to suit your family. All trampolines can be a wonderful family activity, provide a fun time with friends and are a brilliant way to keep fit and healthy.

Before you decide which trampoline is right for you, there are several aspects to consider. Such as how you’re planning on using the trampoline, the space you have available in your garden, your budget and, of course, safety.

Round vs Rectangular: The bounce

One of the key factors when comparing trampolines is bounce performance. This is probably going to be the feature kids care the most about – how high can you jump on the trampoline?

Bounce quality will depend in part on size.  A smaller trampoline is going to offer a much smaller bounce. If you have young children, you might want to consider a smaller model that won’t send them jumping too high.

Rectangular trampolines offer a higher bounce than round trampolines.  This is because the springs on a rectangular trampoline operate independently from each other. This means that wherever you are on the mat all of your jumps will rebound equally.   It doesn’t matter where you jump on a rectangular trampoline, you can expect your bounce to have equal height and power.

The opposite is true with a round trampoline. When you jump on a circular trampoline, all of the springs work at the same time. The centre of gravity is in the middle of a round trampoline. On a round trampoline, users must jump in the middle to gain the maximum jump performance. Jumping on the edges of a round trampoline will mean the bounce won’t be as high or powerful. When someone jumps on a round trampoline they will be pulled back towards the middle. This helps to keep the jumper away from the edge and the hard parts of the trampoline.

Round vs. Rectangular: Usage

Why are you buying a trampoline? Is it going to be used purely for fun? Or will your kids be using the trampoline for athletic reasons? These questions are important to ask before you choose a trampoline.

A rectangular trampoline can provide the perfect setting for jumpers who want to learn more tricks and push their skills to a higher level. A rectangular trampoline provides more space to complete tricks. Rectangular trampolines are great for more advanced trampolinists and families who want to explore and develop their abilities.

Round trampolines are a great choice if you plan to use them for recreational purposes. A round trampoline limits how high bounces can go and where they land. The circular shape draws jumpers back to the centre of the trampoline. This is a great, subtle safety feature for younger children and more inexperienced bouncers who simply want to experience the fun of bouncing.

Round vs. Rectangular: Location, size & weather

The space you have available will have a direct bearing on the size and shape of the trampoline you choose.  Knowing where you plan to put your trampoline is an important consideration.  Your space restrictions will play heavily into your final decision on which shape to buy. Finding a convenient space for a round trampoline can be difficult. You need sufficient space for the entire diameter of a round trampoline. This usually means you will need to place the trampoline more in the centre of your garden. A rectangular trampoline will fit more easily into a corner or in a side return of the garden and can be hidden away from view. Before making a round vs rectangular trampolines purchase, it is important to take measurements and carefully choose where you want to put your trampoline.

The weather is also a consideration when choosing the size and shape of your trampoline. If you live somewhere with harsh summers, such as the UAE, you might decide to store your trampoline to keep it out of the summer sun.  The “zero bolt” assembly of the North Trampolines we sell at Jump Fitness Dubai, means that storing your trampoline for summer will be a breeze.  However, once taken down, a rectangular trampoline could be easier to slide into storage compared to a round trampoline.

The final choice

Depending on how and who will be using your trampoline will impact which shape of trampoline you choose to buy. There are advantages and disadvantages to both round vs rectangular trampolines. On the whole, we recommend that if you are buying a trampoline for small children or inexperienced users who just want to have some fun, then choose a round trampoline. If you have older or more experienced jumpers, then the rectangular trampoline is a great choice for training, as well as fun family activities.
