ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLY
PoleAssembly
1. Attach the Upper Support Poles (2)
and the Lower Support Poles (3)
which have both been
pre-assembled with foams (2A &
3A) (See Figure 1)
2. Slide the assembled Support Pole
(2 & 3) done in step 1 into the
Foam Sleeve (4). Cover the entire
area of the Support Pole’s Foam.
(See Fig.2).
3. Insert the Ball Cap (6) over top of
Upper Support Pole. Align holes and
fasten the Ball Cap (6) to the
assembled Support Pole using Ball
Cap Screw (5). (See Figure 3)
Page: 6

4. Attach each assembled Support
Pole done in step 3 to every
second leg of the Trampoline in
an upright position. Using the
U-Bolt (7), first place it around
the Support Pole and then slide
on the U-Bolt Clamp (8) over the
Leg Tube. Fasten the U-Bolt and
the U-bolt Clamp using (9) and
(10) (See Figure 4). If possible use an electric screwdriver to assist.
5. The Support Poles should reach
half way of the Trampoline Legs
leaving the bottom of pole foam
in the same level to the frame pad.
Once the assembly has been
completed properly, the Support
Poles should look like Figure 5.

NetAssembly
1. Stretch Net Assembly (1) out. Locate
the panel with the doorway and align
the net as to where you would like to
get in and out of the trampoline. The
edge with the pre-sewn hanging loop is
the upper part of the net and will be
hooked at the top of the pole. (See
Figure 1)
2. In line to each of the pre-sewn loop at the
net top, there are a row of sewn-in velcro
closings, three velcro closings in line.
Attach these velcro closings securely to
each of the pole. Adjust the net to make
sure the velcro closings are securely
fastened. (See Figure 2)
3. At the other edge of the net, there are
elastic straps which are used to secure
the bottom part of the net to the
Trampoline. Pull the bottom of the net
down to the trampoline using the elastic
straps and wrap them over the
Trampoline Top Rail Tube and hook
them to the Mat’s V-ring as shown in
Figure 3.
Page: 8

4. Now go around the whole enclosure to make sure all the loops, velcro and elastic
straps are securely attached to the poles and trampoline. Check that the enclosure
is positioned evenly around the trampoline and that it is not under strain on any
particular one point. IMPORTANT – When assembled there should not be
visible/exposed metal v-rings, the padding should lay flat on the trampoline bed
with the net tucked underneath.
The assembly of the enclosure is now completed as shown below.
There is a plastic warning sign enclosed with the
enclosure package. Permanently affix this warning
sign to the outside of the enclosure, next to the
entrance.

CARE & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
zInspect the trampoline enclosure before each use and replace any worn, defective,
or missing parts. The following conditions could represent potential hazards:
1. Missing, improperly positioned, or insecurely attached barrier or enclosure
support system padding and pole caps.
2. Punctures, frays, tears, or holes worn in the barrier or support system padding.
3. Deterioration in the stitching or fabric of the barrier or support system padding.
4. Bent or broken support system.
5. Sagging barrier.
6. Sharp protrusions on the support or suspension system.
zThe product must not be used until properly and fully installed and checked.
Galvanized tubular products may require occasional maintenance. If surface rust
appears it should be removed with either a wire brush or coarse sandpaper, and
the area treated with non-toxic paint.
zTo avoid damage to the trampoline and trampoline enclosure, do not allow pets
or other animals on the trampoline and trampoline enclosure. Their claws and
teeth can damage the mat of the trampoline and the net of the enclosure.
zMake sure that no bonfires are lit close enough to threaten your trampoline
enclosure. In windy conditions, sparks and embers can travel significant
distances and burn holes in the enclosure net.
zAny large trampoline, with or without an enclosure, can be blown around in high
winds and cause injury or damage. We recommend that the trampoline enclosure
should be removed under these conditions and stored in a dry place.
zWhen the trampoline enclosure is not in use during the off-season or winter,
disassemble the trampoline enclosure and store it in a clean dry place.

FUNDAMENTALTRAMPOLINE SKILLS
zBASIC SKILLS - Bouncing
The most important thing about bouncing is that it should be done with control in
the centre of the bed. The basic bounce should always be low. High, reckless
bouncing should never be allowed.
zThe Stop Bounce
This technique allows the jumper to gain control by stopping quickly. It is
achieved by keeping the feet in contact with the bed, and absorbing the rebound
of the trampoline with the knees and waist. This skill should be the first skill
learnt and should be employed whenever you feel out of balance, or land away
from the center area.
To learn the stop bounce:
(a) Stand in centre of the bed with your feet about hip-width apart.
(b) Attempt about three easy bounces, keep them low and controlled.
(c) Focus your eyes towards the perimeter of the trampoline while bouncing in
order to keep your balance.
(d) Stop the bounce by bending at your knees and hips on contact with the bed.
zArm Action
Arms are very important for proper control and lift. Whenever you go up, your arms
go up. They go up to a set position about shoulder height and shoulder width. They
should remain in this balanced position until you start down. Then they circle down
and slightly behind the hips, ready to lift again as you bounce up (see Figure 1).
Figure 1 Arm Action
Page: 12

zBounce variations
Figures 2, 3 and 4 show three variations, the tuck, the pike, and the straddle pike
respectively. These should be assumed at the top of the bounce, before resuming the
normal landing position on your feet.
Practice these simple variations and concentrate on perfect form. Make sure that your
toes are pointed and fingers are straight.
These are simple variations to the basic bounce and are very important for gaining
experience in coordinated movement.
BASIC LANDING POSITIONS
zGeneral
Positions for all drops: seat, hands and knees, and front, should first be practiced on
the ground, then in a stationary position, and only then on the trampoline bed.
Drops should be performed after “Priming” the trampoline bed. Priming is done by
bending your knees and pushing down repeatedly on the trampoline bed, thereby
Page: 13

setting the bed in motion. The feet stay in contact with the bed during the entire
priming motion.
zThe seat drop
To learn the seat drop:
(a) From the standing position, prime the bed several times.
(b) Pick up your feet at the top of the last bounce, and sit down. You should land so
that your body is in a sitting position with legs straight out in front and your toes
pointed. Hands should be on the bed next to your hips. Fingers should be
together and pointed toward the toes.
(c) Push on the bed with your hands to rebound up to your feet (see Figure 5).
Figure 5 Seat Drop
zThe Hands and Knees Drop
To do this drop properly, there should be just as much weight on your hands as on
your knees. Your back should be about approximately parallel to the bed. Knees and
hands should land simultaneously, with the middle of the body landing in the centre of
the trampoline. Hands should be directly under the shoulders. Knees should be
directly under the hips. Your toes should be pointed.
To learn the hands and knees drop:
(a) Get down on your hands and knees on the bed. Make sure you have weight on
both your hands and your knees. Do not sit on your heels.
(b) Remain in this position and try to bounce. Do not rock back and forth between
the hands and knees, but develop an even landing on all four points.
(c) From the standing position, prime the bed several times. Lift upward with your
hips, reach forward with our hands, and land on all fours. Look slightly in front
of your hands on landing. Push to rebound to your feet (see Figure 6).
Page: 14

Figure 6 Hands and Knees Drop
zThe Front Drop
Contact with the trampoline be should simultaneously take place with your hands,
elbows, chest, stomach, hips and knees. Knees should be bent.
You must come down level. If the landing is made first on your chest and arms, they
will rebound before your knees hit which will result in a straining action on you back.
If this type of landing is made with a traveling, diving approach there is a chance that
your elbows may become skinned. If the landing is made so that your knees and hips
hit first, then they will rebound and your shoulders and face will land heavily.
Step 1:
(a) Start from the hands and knees drop position.
(b) As you rebound from the hands and knees, stretch so that you land on your
stomach. From this position, rebound to your hands and knees.
Step 2:
(a) Start from a standing position with knees bent so that your upper body is low and
close to the trampoline bed.
(b) Prime the bed several times.
(c) Lift hips gently upward and backward.
(d) Land in contact with the bed as described in Step 1.
(e) Push with your hands to return to the feet
Step 3:
(a) Start from a straight standing position.
(b) Prime the bed several times.
(c) Perform skill as in Step 2 (see Figure 7).

SERIES OF DROPS
zSequencing
Once you have mastered the individual bounce variations and drops, practice them in
sequence. For example: Seat drop－Hands and knees drop－Front drop, or Seat drop
－Front drop-Hands and knees drop－Seat drop.
zBeginning Twisting
General
Figures 8, 9 and 10 will show you a few of the many possible twisting variations of
the basic landing positions.
Seat drop － Half twist － Seat drop(AKA: Swivel hips)
Step 1:
(a) Perform a seat drop.
(b) Push down on the bed with your hands and come to a stand with the arms
stretched overhead.
Step 2:
(a) Perform the movement in Step1. As you rebound up to your feet, move one
shoulder in the direction you want to twist.
(b) Finish standing with arms stretched overhead, facing the opposite direction (180
degree twist completed).
Step 3:
Perform as in Step 2. Just before contacting feet with the trampoline bed, lift your legs
to land in a sitting position (see Figure 8).
Page: 16

Figure 8 Seat Drop—Half Twist—Seat Drop
Front drop － Half twist － Front Drop(AKA: Turntable)
Step 1:
(a) Begin in a hands and knees position, with hands forming the apex of a triangle,
like in front drop.
(b) Prime the bed in this position.
(c) Push backward with your hands and extend your body to land in the front drop
position.
(d) Repeat several times in succession: Hands and knees drop-Front drop-Hands and
knees drop-etc.
Step 2:
Perform the movement as in Step 1. However, do it at twice the speed so as to bring
your knees inward, under your hips and out again without touching your knees on the
bed.
Step 3:
Perform the movement as in Step 2. Push sideways on the trampoline bed so your
body rotates.
Step 4:
From a standing position, prime the bed, then perform a front drop. Push sideway, as
in Step 3, and complete a 180 degree turn, finishing in a front drop facing the opposite
position (see Figure 9).
Page: 17

Figure 9 Front Drop—Half Twist—Front Drop
Seat drop － Full twist － Seat drop (Full barrel roll)
Perform this as you would a half barrel roll but keep moving your shoulder in the
direction of the twist so that you finish in the seat drop position.
During the twist, hands should be placed by your sides, with your body held straight
(see Figure 10).
Figure 10 Seat Drop—Full Twist—Seat Drop
zAdditional Twisting
You can combine a twist with each of the basic landing positions. You can twist after
the landing position.
Example: Seat drop － 1/2 twist － feet
You can add more twists. Remember to practice and perfect the smaller twists before
Page: 18

moving on to larger twists.
You can also perform a series of twists.
Example: Swivel hips－perform several in a row, all twisting in one direction, or
alternating directions.
JUMPERS’ROLE IN PREVENTINGACCIDENTS
zEducation on the part of the user is a must for safety. Users must first learn a
low controlled bounce and the basic landing positions and combinations before
proceeding to intermediate skills. Jumpers must understand why they have to
master “control” before they can start thinking about other moves.
Understanding the proper progression of skills in jumping on a trampoline must
be the first lesson.
SUPERVISORS’ROLE IN PREVENTINGACCIDENTS
zIt is the responsibility of the supervisor(s) of trampoline users to provide
knowledgeable and mature supervision. They need to know and enforce all the
rules and warnings set forth in this manual in order to minimize the likelihood of
accidents and injuries and to inform users of these rules. When supervision is
unavailable or inadequate, this may require that the trampoline be disassembled,
placed in a secure area, or otherwise secured against unauthorized use. It is the
responsibility of the supervisor(s) to be sure that the users are fully aware of the
safety guidelines which are printed on the pads.
zThese instructions are issued in the interest of child safety, and we ask you to
follow our advice.
