1. Assessing Your Backyard Space
Before diving into the trampoline options, it's essential to assess the available space in your backyard. Measure the area where you plan to place the trampoline, considering factors such as the required clearance around the trampoline and any obstacles, such as trees or garden beds. Safety guidelines suggest maintaining a minimum clearance of 2 metres around the trampoline and 8 metres of overhead clearance from any hazards like overhanging branches or power lines. Remember, trampolines require a level surface to ensure stability and even bounce.
2. Choosing the Right Size and Shape
Trampolines come in various sizes and shapes, each with its own unique benefits and suitability for different families. Jump Star Trampolines offers round, rectangular, and oval trampolines to cater a diverse range of customer needs.
Round Trampolines
Round trampolines are the most popular choice for families. They provide a consistent bounce experience as the springs distribute the force evenly. This feature naturally directs users towards the centre of the trampoline, reducing the risk of falling off. Available in sizes ranging from 8ft to 16ft in diameter, round trampolines can accommodate various backyard sizes and activity levels.
Rectangular Trampolines
Rectangular trampolines offer a higher bounce, making them popular among gymnasts and athletes. Due to their independent spring system, they provide a more powerful bounce, suitable for practising advanced tricks and flips. However, they require extra supervision for children to ensure safe play. Jump Star Trampolines offers rectangular trampolines in sizes such as 7x10ft or 9x14ft, providing plenty of options for families prioritising performance.
Oval Trampolines
An oval trampoline combines the benefits of both round and rectangular trampolines. With independent springs, they offer an enhanced bounce experience whilst maintaining perimeter stability, making them a suitable choice for families with growing children who need more space to play. Jump Star's range includes oval trampolines in sizes like the 9x14ft Oval Pro, catering to various backyard spaces and user requirements.
3. Prioritising Safety Features
To ensure a safe and enjoyable trampoline experience for your family, it's essential to consider the safety features of the trampoline. Some safety features to consider include:
Safety Nets
Safety nets are vital for reducing the risk of falls or injuries. They surround the trampoline and prevent users from accidentally bouncing off the jumping mat. Jump Star Trampolines offers safety net packages that include reinforced poles and quality nets to ensure durability. Look for a secure closure system like zippers or clips for easy access and maximum protection.
Padding
Padding is essential for covering the trampoline's frame and springs, minimising the risk of injury due to contact with these hard or sharp components. Opt for a trampoline with thick, high-density foam padding and a durable, UV-resistant outer cover to ensure longevity and safety.
Anchoring Kits
Anchoring kits provide added stability to your trampoline by securing it to the ground, preventing potential accidents caused by strong winds or intense bouncing. Consider investing in Jump Star Trampolines’ anchoring kit, designed for compatibility with their trampoline range, for maximum peace of mind.
4. Balancing Quality and Budget
Although it may be tempting to opt for a cheaper trampoline, it's essential to prioritise quality and durability. A high-quality trampoline will not only provide a safer experience for your family but also prove cost-effective in the long run, as it's built to withstand the test of time.
Jump Star Trampolines prides itself on offering reliable, Australian-standard trampolines crafted with heavy-duty steel frames, UV-resistant materials, and premium springs. These features ensure a lasting investment that will keep your family entertained for years to come.
