• Remove any objects from under the trampoline. There should be no
obstacles underneath the trampoline.
• Do not do somersaults on the trampoline. If you land on your head or
neck, this could cause serious injuries, paralysis or death, even if you
land in the centre of the mat.
• Keep in the centre of the mat when you are jumping on it. This will
reduce the risk of injuries that could occur from landing on the frame
or the springs.
• Only one person should jump at a time. If several people jump at the
same time, this could result in serious accidents.
• Do not use the trampoline without anyone watching you.
• Make sure the opening of the safety net is properly closed before you
start jumping.
• Trampolines with a height of more than 51 cm are not suitable for
children under 6 years old.
• Check the trampoline every time you want to use it. Check to make
sure that the edge protector is in the correct place. Replace any worn,
damaged or missing parts.
• Climb carefully when you are getting on or o the trampoline. It is
risky to jump from the trampoline onto the ground or jumping onto the
trampoline. Do not use the trampoline as a springboard to jump onto
other objects.
• Do not use the trampoline straight after you have eaten.
• Stop jumping by bending at the knees when your feet land on the mat.
You need to learn this before trying any other kinds of jump.
• Learn the basic jumps and simple movements before trying more
advanced moves. There are many exercises you can do by combining the
basic jumps and movements, or carrying them out in a dierent order.
• Do not jump too high. Only do low jumps until you have learnt the
proper jumping technique and how to land in the middle of the mat.
Being in control of the jump is more important than jumping high.
• Stay in control by keeping your eyes on the mat. If you do not do this,
you may lose your balance or control.
• Do not use the trampoline if you are tired. Only jump for short periods of
time.
