Everyone probably likes the idea of going to the nearest shopping center and coming back home with a trampoline. But before you head out, you should consider if it’s really worth it. You might save a bit of money on your purchase, but in the long run, it might not work out in your favor. Why is that? Continue reading to find out.

 

The main feature of every trampoline is its jumping mat

The jumping mat is in contact with the user on every bounce. So naturally, it needs the most of your attention. Nowadays, almost all jumping mats are made of polypropylene and are water-proof and UV-resistant.

But what makes the high-quality Akrobat jumping mats better than all the rest you can find?

Correctly installed high-quality jumping mat prevents injuries

A damaged and low-quality jumping mat is the reason for many trampoline injuries. Choosing the right jumping mat is therefore crucial for the user’s safety. Akrobat jumping mats significantly lower the risk of injuries in comparison with other, cheaper trampoline jumping mats available for purchase in shopping centers. Acrobat trampolines can withstand at least 2.5 million jumps!

The main reasons for this are high-quality material and the installation of the mat onto the springs. If the jumping mat is high-quality, well-designed, and correctly installed, the G-force when trampolining is almost the same on all the important points, such as ankles, back, and forehead. As a consequence, the risk of injuries is significantly lower than in other sports. Research has shown that when running, the G-force in the ankles is twice as high as that on the back and forehead, which can cause several injuries.

Many people think trampolining is dangerous, but a high-quality trampoline jumping mat can have beneficial effects on the spine. Trampolining is also one of the most beneficial full-body exercises that strengthen every part of the body, improves coordination and balance as well as contributes to overall well-being.

 

The right jumping mat for a good user experience

Many users say that jumping on Akrobat trampolines is unique - the bounce is higher and the landing softer than on other trampolines. This is due to the correct installation of the jumping mat onto the springs  which are just flexible enough and optimally long to enable safe trampolining.

The sewing technique also influences the great bounce. Eight-row stitching used on Akrobat jumping mats guarantees maximum safety and tear resistance. Akrobat trampolines are the only trampolines that don’t require any tools and screws for installation. With the AkroCLICK system, you get the job done in a few short and easy steps.

The choice of the right jumping mat is based on the age and experience of its users

Before you purchase a trampoline for home use, you should be aware that the age and experience of its users also influence which jumping mat is right for you. Trampoline bounce performance is different if the jumper is a 10-year-old or an adult.

Also, keep in mind the user experience. Less experienced users will probably bounce lower than users who like more adrenaline and fun. In such cases, it is recommended to choose a jumping mat with a better bounce performance that will please even the most demanding users. Click on "sports trampolines" to see it.

 

Investing in high-quality pays off

There are many trampolines of different brands with different jumping mats available on the market. Since the jumping mat influences trampoline bounce performance and guarantees optimal safety, you shouldn’t try to save money on it. Investing in a high-quality jumping mat will pay off when you experience unforgettable and safe jumping fun on your trampoline.
