NOTE
Prior to first use read the section „Trampoline testing“.
Trampoline testing:
After the assembly of the trampoline it is important that you perform the following safety checks:
• Use a screwdriver to check that all screws are tightened securely.
• Look underneath the trampoline and make sure all springs are attached securely to the frame
and triangular handles.
• Use both hands to transfer your weight to different parts of the trampoline and make sure
the frame and jumping surface is alright.
• Check whether the protective collar covers the springs and frame completely.
• Make sure the bars are securely mounted on the trampoline and check the strength of
the attachment.
• Make sure the spring cover and safety net are not torn at the seams.
• Make sure the zipper at the entrance to the trampoline is working properly.
• Make sure all peripheral hooks are connected to the triangular handles underneath the
trampoline.

Basic jumping techniques
It is important to learn the basic techniques before using the trampoline.
Basic jump
• Start in standing position, spread your legs into
shoulder width and look at the mat.
• Swing your arms up and forward in a circular motion.
• While you are in the air, put your legs together with your
toes pointing downwards.
• When landing on the mat, spread your legs into
shoulder-width again.

Slowing down
• Sometimes you may lose control over the jump.
• Slowing down allows you to gain control over your
motion and balance.
• Position yourself in a position of a basic jump.
• When landing, bend your knees as much as possible.
Jumping on knees
• Start with a low basic jump.
• Jump on your knees and keep your back and your body
straight. Use your hands to keep your balance.
• Swing your arms and jump back to basic position.
