Seeing that summer time will soon be here again young children all over the country are going to be asking their parents for trampolines as well as climbing frames to play on in their gardens. At this point many worried parents will say no because they are too dangerous leading to summer long arguments and general grumpiness from the youngsters.
While there’s no question that trampolines are great fun and a great way to keep the youngsters occupied for a couple hours there is also no doubt that they can be very dangerous. Every year a large number of youngsters find themselves in hospital with cuts, bruises or worse which they sustain from playing on trampolines. Fortunately for moms and dads whose youngsters just won’t be happy without a trampoline to spend the summer bouncing on help is at hand. In the first major overhaul of the trampoline since it was made more than 70 years ago a trampoline has been designed that does away with the two areas where people are most likely to be hurt. One of the major problems with the old type of trampolines was the springs with wounds commonly sustained by either falling through or landing on the edge of the trampoline itself. The old solution to this issue was to cover the springs with padding however this was at best an inadequate solution with lots of injuries still being sustained and a pricey one as the extra padding would need replacing every 2-3 years at a significant cost. The Springfree Trampoline has been developed to eliminate these issues and revolutionise trampoline technology. Rather than springs bounce is provided by a system of rods which means that the frame and also the spring system is now lower than the jumping area helping prevent accidents and injuries with the Springfree Softedge system. Other improvements to guarantee the safety of children include the Flexinet fencing system which is just found on Springfree trampolines. Nets have been around for a while but generally employed rigid steel pipes which were just as likely to injure kids as keep them safe and sound. The Flexinet enclosure uses a flexible frame system which gently directs children back to the centre of the trampoline. This summer if your children must have a trampoline to play on make sure it is a safe one that use Springfree technology to keep them safe and sound. You can discover a great range of Springfree trampolines online and in your local toy store.
