In my last two posts I discussed about few simple and easy suggestions for parents and children of how we can use trampoline safely. Hoping that those articles would helpful and interesting for you. You got lot of new informations from those articles. In this current post you will get to know about storage of your trampoline.

It is a very big question about how to store the trampoline safely. Sometime it becomes a tedious job to store the trampoline in a safe place without harming it and their accessories especially in winter season.   When trampoline is not in use then it is mandatory that it must store watchfully between of winter season because in this season the cold air, icy weather and fog can damage the trampoline and other accessories of it.

But now don’t worry more about the how you will store the trampoline and keep it safe. I will discuss here few simple points. With these points you will easily store your trampoline in a safe condition.

Points for Storing the Trampoline

• Before dismenting the trampoline clean the trampoline, spring mat, jumping mat, edge cover and trampoline cover with warm and foamy water with detergent or liquid for wash and allow them to dry each and every thing. With this most of the insects and their larvaes remove. It is must that all things totally dry before you store the trampoline.


• Always buy not less than one big and extra-large plastic boxes which must have wheels attach at bottom of the box because when you will collect the all things and try to pack whole trampoline kit in a box then it would be full of excess weight and you will not be capable to shift it without any help of others. Each box grasps a minimum weight of 50 gallons for a simple 12-foot large round trampoline, but in case your trampoline is in rectangular shape or larger than 12 feet then the boxes should be bigger. It is your wish if you want to purchase only one large storage space box in the place of more than one box, but always keep in mind about the weight.


• Look a good and safe place for the storage of big boxes. Select that place which is cool, dry and easy to reach that place. Place boxes on selected place when they are empty because it will be heavy after filled. Make sure the storage place for these boxes must be at ground level so that you don't need to take them up any stairs or grades because the whole box you cannot carry up and if you carry single pieces then it will tired you because these are heavy . So select place at ground level. It is must you keep both boxes on same location. With this whenever you need assembled the trampoline then you would not need to search here and there. You will just go to that location and take all the parts.


• Disassemble is also an art or a technique. Lay down all the accessories and pieces of trampoline on the ground in a sorted order. First of all, place all the trampoline springs first in the bottom of 1 box. After that according to their shapes and sizes grouped them all frameworks and lay into box smartly.


• Scatter out your jumping mat, edge cover and safety net in the open area. Pack with many dryer sheets( or you can use here air bubble rolls) on everything. These dryer sheets prevent trampoline from mice and others insects.


• Roll each and every item in above point into the least small packet if possible. If you will roll them then these take small amount of space than folding. Put each and every item turn into a pillowcase and these cases put into the box. These pillowcases never shake the frameworks while boxes moving around.


• All the things keep in a gallon sized zip seal bag and put these bags in box. Most important thing specially write down “Trampoline: 1 of 2" and "Trampoline: 2 of 2" on both boxes so that you can get every item easily.

These are the few points, which you should follow while storing your trampoline. If you follow these points then your trampoline can work and stay for a long time.

Purchasing of the Trampoline Kit

Accessories of Trampoline

Purchase safety mats, or make sure that the model which you are going to purchase comes with safety mats and edge cover that totally wrap the springs, hooks and the frame. The mat and edge cover should be a contrasting colour to the jumping mat.

Also check the models which you are going to buy that have safety net as part of the trampoline kit or full set, or buy a safety net along with trampoline kit when you buy the trampoline. This will diminish the possibility of your child falling from the trampoline and touch to the ground.

Positioning of the Trampoline

Select a clear and plain area, which is clear from risks such as big trees, barbed wires, washing or water pipe lines, beams or other hazard equipments. Elegantly there should be a risk free safe fall region totally around the trampoline of at least 2 meters. Risk free safe fall region should also include bikes, skateboards and other toys that could be a hazard.

Never install the trampoline on a hard surface (i.e. concrete, hard packed mud) without some form of crash matting or safety netting but install on elastic, force gripping ground so that trampoline work easily and if ever your children fall from trampoline then they don’t get any major injury. Also never place trampoline on a rugged surface because trampoline will be unbalanced and your children would not play comfortably on trampoline and the chances of injuries are more. Also careful about the trampoline ladder, never use a ladder all the time with the trampoline because it provides unsupervised access to small children.

Tips for Buying Trampoline First Time Part 3

Hi To All.

Hope You all are keeping well. In my previous two posts I started topic that what thing we should consider while purchasing a new trampoline first time. I was talking on features of the trampoline.

Jumping Mat and Spring Cover – Jumping mat must be strong and hard wearing. It should be smooth when jumper falls on it. Spring mat should also strong and good quality. Both are UV resistant so that they can stand so many years even in direct sunlight.

Number of Springs – Manufacturers will always mention how many springs use on every size of trampoline which they sell. It is obvious thing that the big size trampoline will have more springs than smaller size trampolines. During comparing same size trampoline from different manufacturers, it is not necessary that which have more springs that trampoline is good. Quantity of the springs based on the desired bounce related to the weight of the user. Your younger can face problem during bounce or can impossible to bounce on a large number of springs. That time ask for a advice from your supplier.

Weight limit – Also check the weight limit of every size of trampoline. Every manufacturer mentions the weight limitation on every size of trampoline. But you should have in your mind that how many people will use trampoline in your home and their total weight and also your child’s friends.


What Accessories Should I Consider While Buying?

Safety Net – Check whether supplier providing you safety net or not. If not then ask them for safety net. Because this safety net prevent everyone who use trampoline to fall from it and get injure. It covers whole bouncing area of trampoline. It is getting more popular and proved a good prevention. Make sure safety net cover whole area of the trampoline and also a good quality net. Also check is it included in whole pack or not.

Trampoline Ladder – Trampoline ladder is must for every trampoline. It is easy to use and access trampoline for older and specially for small children with trampoline ladder. Younger children always jump off from trampoline, it can be a risk of injury to them. Never allow to your very younger children to access the trampoline without ladder. Use flat steps ladder instead of tubular steps. Flat steps comfort and easy for children. Check whether ladder is included or not. Some suppliers sell it extra.

Weather Cover – Weather cover also important for trampoline. Weather cover covers the whole trampoline and protects from leaves and birds droppings and also from rain and sunlight. It should be a good quality cover.

Maintenance

Usually trampoline needs minimal maintenance. But pick that supplier who has stocks of parts and accessories all year and can fix damage cheaper and in a easier way.

Delivery

Some suppliers charge cost of delivery and some not. So you have to confirm about delivery charges.

I hope you will get useful information. But if you have any query you can comment on this post.

Tips for Buying Trampoline First Time - Part 2

In my first part I wrote few tips about buying trampoline first time. In this part I will explain technical points.

A Circular or Rectangular Trampoline
It depends upon of user of the trampoline. If user is a child or an inexperienced trampolinist then go for a circular trampoline because it is less powerful than the rectangular trampoline. Jumper stay on the centre of the garden trampoline while jumping on trampoline mat for making them safe. If user is a professional gymnast then go for rectangular trampoline because it is more bouncy than circular and gymnast needs more bouncy mat. But it would be more dangerous for children to use rectangular trampoline in home without supervision of expert trampolinist.

Size of Trampoline
It should be large and fit in your garden that you can afford. As your children grow by time and they will ask for bigger trampoline and a bigger bouncy area for jump. Your children also will want that their friends also jump on trampoline and play so big trampoline will give them more space to them. You should also check there should not be overhanging branches and cables or others hurdles that can injure your children while jumping.

Supplier Selection
You have to be more careful while choosing a supplier. Find out how long they are in trampoline industry. How they gives services to their customers. Always choose a specialize trampoline supplier who can give you advise for choosing a best trampoline according your requirement and your garden space. Check either they hold a stock of spare parts and accessories so that if you need in future you can get easily from them. Ask for evidence for their best supplier.

Features of the Product

Check following features while buying a trampoline.

Frame –Frame is the most important part of any trampoline either it is circle or rectangular or professional or garden trampoline. Frame should be strong and long lasting. Take every information about frame’s material and guarantee and warranty. The weakest point of the frame is where circular rings joined and these are welded can be spoil.
