INFORMATION ON USE OF THE TRAMPOLINE
Initially, get accustomed to the feel and bounce of the trampoline. The focus must be on the funda-
mentals of your body position and you should practice each bounce (the basic bounces) until you can
perform each with ease and control.
To break a bounce, ex your knees sharply before your feet come in contact with the mat.
This technique should be practiced as you are learning each of the basic bounces.
The skill of braking should be used whenever you lose balance or control of your jump.
Always learn the simplest bounce rst and be consistent with the control of your bounce before mov-
ing on to more difcult and advanced bounces. A controlled bounce is when your take off point and
landing point is the same spot on the mat. If you move up to the next bounce without rst mastering
the previous, you increase your risk of injury.
Do not bounce on the trampoline for extended periods of time as fatigue can increase your risk of
injury. Bounce only for a brief period of time. Only one person should bounce on the trampoline at a
time.
Never intentionally bounce into, climb on, or hang from the enclosure poles or netting.
Never climb over or crawl under the netting to enter or exit the trampoline enclosure.
Jumpers should wear a t-shirt, shorts or sweats, and regulation gymnastics shoes, heavy socks, or
be barefoot. If you are just beginning, you may want to wear long sleeve shirts and pants to protect
against scrapes and abrasions until you master correct landing positions and form. Do not wear hard
sole shoes, such as tennis shoes on the trampoline as this will cause excessive wear on the mat.
You should always mount and dismount properly in order to avoid injury. To mount properly, you
should place your hand on the frame and step or roll up onto the frame, over the springs, and onto the
trampoline mat. Always remember to place your hands onto the frame while mounting or dismounting.
Do not step directly onto the frame pad or grasp the frame pad. To dismount properly, move to the
side of the trampoline and place your hand onto the frame as a support and step from the mat to the
ground. Smaller children should be assisted when mounting and dismounting.
Do not bounce recklessly on the trampoline, as this will increase your risk of injury. The key to safety
and having fun on the trampoline is control and mastering the various bounces. Never try to out-
bounce another bouncer in terms of height!
