Learn the basic jumping and body positions thoroughly before you try difficult
jumps.
•
Bring your return jump to a stop by bending your knees as soon as your feet
come into contact with the trampoline mat.
•
This technique should be practised simultaneously with the other jumping
techniques. The ability to cushion your jump should then be used whenever
you lose balance on a jump or if you simply want to learn basic jumps only. A
controlled jump can only be made when you land on the same spot from
which you jumped. If you lose your balance, bend your knees when you land.
This allows you to regain balance.
•
Take turns when jumping and watch out for each jumper.
•
Climb on and off the trampoline. Do not jump on or off the trampoline. Do not
use the trampoline as a springboard to other objects.

For more information or exercise instructions, please contact a qualified
trampoline instructor.
Using the trampoline may result in injury, as with all active recreational sports. There
are ways to reduce this risk of injury. In the following pages, the basic causes of
accidents are highlighted and the responsibilities of the supervisor and the jumper
are described in order to prevent accidents.
3.1. ACCIDENT CATEGORIES
Somersaults (flips): Landing on your head or neck, even if it happens in the middle of
the trampoline mat, increases the risk of a neck or spinal fracture, which may result in
paralysis, or in some circumstances death. This can occur when the jumper makes an
error when doing a forward or back somersault. Do not do somersaults on the garden
trampoline!
The probability of injury increases if more than one person is jumping on the trampoline
and they lose control of their jump. Jumpers can collide, fall off the trampoline, fall on or
through the springs, or land in the wrong way on the jumping mat. The jumper who
weighs the least is the most likely to be injured.
Getting on and off the trampoline: The trampoline mat is about one metre above the
ground. Jumping off the trampoline to the ground or other surface can lead to injury.
Jumping onto the trampoline from a roof, terrace, or other elevated objects poses a
risk of injury. Small children need assistance in getting on and off the trampoline.
Climb off and on the trampoline carefully. Do not step on the springs or the frame pad.
Do not use the frame pad on the trampoline by pulling it up.
Hitting the frame or the springs: Hitting the frame or falling through the springs while
jumping or getting on and off the trampoline can lead to injury. Stay in the middle of the
trampoline when jumping. Make sure that the frame pad remains in place and covers
the frame. The frame pad is not capable of supporting the weight of the jumper. Do
not step or jump directly onto the frame pad.
Loss of control: Jumpers who lose control of their jump can land on the jumping mat in
the wrong way, land on the frame or springs, or fall off the trampoline. A controlled jump
is one in which the jumper lands in the same spot they jumped from. Before a more
difficult type of jump is practised, the previous jump must be able to be
