2. INFORMATION ON USE OF THE TRAMPOLINE
Initially, you should get accustomed to the feel and bounce of the trampoline. The focus must be on the
fundamentals of your body position and you should practice each bounce (the basic bounces) until you can
do each skill with ease and control.
To brake a bounce, all you need to do is flex your knees sharply before they come in contact with the
mat of the trampoline. This technique should practiced while 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 first and be consistent with the control of your bounce before moving on to
more difficult and advanced bounces. A controlled bounce is one when your take off point and landing
point is the same spot on the mat. If you move up to the next bounce without first mastering the previous,
you increase your chances of getting injured.
Do not bounce on the trampoline for extended periods of time because fatigue can increase your chances of
becoming injured. Bounce for a brief period of time and then allow others to join in on the fun! Never have
more than one person bouncing on the trampoline.
Jumpers should wear t-shirt, shorts or sweats, and regulation gymnastics shoes, heavy socks, or be bare
foot. 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 material.
You should always mount and dismount properly in order to avoid injury. To mount properly, you should
PLACE your hand on the frame and either step or roll up onto the frame, over the springs, and onto the
trampoline mat. You should 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
over 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 the trampoline.
Do not bounce recklessly on the trampoline since this will increase your chances of getting injured. 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! Never use the trampoline alone without supervision.
