manoeuvre when you land and this will allow you to regain control and stop your jump.
Somersaults (Flips): We recommend that you 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 our head or neck and
cause serious injury to yourself.
Foreign Objects: DO NOT use the trampoline if there are pets, other people, or any objects beneath 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 using it. Please be aware of what is overhead when you are using the
trampoline. Tree limbs, wires, or other objects located over the trampoline will increase the chance of injuries
occurring.
Number of People on the Trampoline: No more than one person should use the trampoline at any one time. Having
more than one person on the trampoline at the same time can increase the risk of injury.
Poor Maintenance of Trampoline: A trampoline in poor condition will increase the risk of injuries. Please inspect the
trampoline before each use for bent steel tubes, torn mat, loose or broken springs, and overall stability of the
trampoline.
Location of the Trampoline: The trampoline must always be set up and used on a level surface. Failure to use the
trampoline on a level surface can increase the chance of injury and/or damage to 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. High winds can also cause jumpers to lose control.
Limiting Access: When the trampoline is not in use, always store the access ladder in a secure place so that
unsupervised children cannot play on the trampoline.
TIPS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ACCIDENTS
Jumper:
The key to avoiding accidents is to stay in control of your jumps. DO NOT move onto more complicated, more difficult
manoeuvre until you have mastered the basic, fundamental bounce. Education is also key to safety and very important.
Read, understand, and practice all safety precautions and warnings prior to using the trampoline. A controlled jump is
when you land and take off from the same location. For additional safety tips and instructions, contact a certified
trampoline instructor.
Supervisor:
When supervising other users of the trampoline, supervisors need to understand and enforce all safety rules and
guidelines. It is the responsibility of supervisor to provide knowledgeable advice and guidance to all jumpers of the
trampoline. If supervision is unavailable or inadequate, the trampoline could be stored in a secure place, disassembled
to prevent unauthorized use, or covered with a heavy tarpaulin that can be locked or secured with lock or chains. The
supervisor is also responsible to ensure that the safety placard is placed on the trampoline and that jumpers are
informed of these warnings and instructions.
