Traditional vs. Springfree Trampoline Safety

You probably remember playing on trampolines as a kid—the games, who can jump higher, trying to do flips, and the potential for serious injury. Traditional trampolines without safety nets were a safety hazard, but they were enjoyable nonetheless. Thankfully, you can still have fun on a trampoline with fewer opportunities for injury. 

Springfree Trampolines are a new version of trampolines that are designed without the hard, metal springs. At C&C Courts, we believe in ensuring everyone’s safety, which is why we stand behind these innovative trampolines. But just how do they differ? Let’s take a look!

Traditional Trampoline Construction

With a traditional trampoline, the frame forms the structural support and is typically made of metal bars. The legs are also made of metal to keep the trampoline stable. Metal springs are attached to the frames and stretched to connect with the jumping surface. 

Why is this less than ideal? 

Falling off a trampoline and hitting the metal bars can cause serious injury. The springs are potential pinch points. Not to mention, the lack of a safety net means if your child goes flying, they could injure themselves when they land on the ground. Even after safety nets became commonplace, children could still hurt themselves on the metal frame. 

Why Trust Springfree Trampolines?

With Springfree Trampolines, there are fewer instances where children can get hurt. The construction of a Springfree Trampoline differs from traditional trampolines in that the hard, metal springs are replaced with flexible composite rods. They are designed to eliminate pinch points. 

The net and mat of a Springfree Trampoline are also designed with more safety in mind. The SoftEdge mat allows for more shock absorption. In addition, the metal frame is positioned under the edge of the jump mat, making it virtually impossible for the frame to cause injury. 

Springfree Trampolines are also rigorously tested for safety and can reduce about 90% of product-related injuries. 

The Bottom Line

There’s no reason to deny children (and adults!) the fun of a trampoline. There are plenty of games and health benefits of trampolines for all ages. By choosing a Springfree Trampoline, you’re putting your family’s safety first by removing many opportunities for injury while still having fun outside.
