Trampoline Accidents and Safety


Make your trampoline experience fun, yet safe


Trampoline jumping is pleasurable for both young and old, but you want to make sure it's a safe experience. There are a number of trampoline accessories that are made with safety in mind. Whether you purchase a big trampoline or a mini trampoline, you'll want to make accident prevention a top priority.


Be careful when using a trampoline


Trampolines are a hoot, but they come with a potential risk. Most trampoline mishaps have been caused by:

  • Collisions with another person
  • Improper landing while jumping or performing stunts
  • Falling or jumping off the trampoline
  • Falling on the trampoline's springs

You can help prevent injuries by allowing only one person on at a time, keeping the Jumpking trampoline away from structures and trees, and supervising children using it. Discourage users from performing somersaults that could result in head or neck injuries.


It's a good idea to keep the number of children on a Airzone trampoline to a minimum; less is best. Don't allow children to get out of control while on the trampoline. If that happens, perhaps it's best to wrap up the trampoline session.

Trampoline accessories can help increase safety


There are a number of trampoline accessories that can help ensure the safety of those who use outdoor trampolines. You should start with safety pads that cover the edges of the trampoline. The pads are an inch or thicker to provide a soft cushion in case users hit the edge.


Another bright idea is a trampoline stake anchor kit that secures the trampoline in the event of high wind conditions. A safety-knit trampoline enclosure has a zippered arch entrance made with high-impact foam and covered steel poles. A foam-filled crash mat is designed to reduce the rebound of a trampoline bouncer.


A trampoline ladder gives users a safe way to get on the big outdoor trampoline. The trampoline's springs should be covered to prevent little ones' fingers from getting painfully pinched.


Trampolines are designed for the fun and enjoyment of youngsters and adults. Just make sure you buy one that matches your family's needs. And, as always, follow any instructions included with the user's manual.
