Springfree trampolines

.

I could drop 1800 on a 10x17 rectangle spring tramp, or 1400 on a 14x14 springfree tramp. I guess im just asking if they bounce as well, and if its worth saving the money. Also all adults make tramps sound deadly and evil. Are they really that dangerous or are kids just dumb?

There not dangerous if you know what your doing, if you get an enclosure you should be good. Basically know your limits and don't try any dubs just because you see people in edits doing them. If you really want to learn dubs and trampolines go to your gym get involved in a class, its the safest and fastest way to learn new stuff. Sorry I can't help with the spring vs spring free, I have no idea.

Springfree tramps are horrible you bounce good for like the first day and then they just shit the bed. Get the rectangle one.

Yeah i heard that the springfree ones torque your knees a bit. Spending the 400 extra for more bounce, and no future knee problems is something my dad could understand. (splitting him half way on the price.) Im not looking to learn any doubles just corks rodeos mistys and bios. im going on my second year freeskiing, and i live in ohio, so theres no way im going to double on skis for awhile.

UGGGHHH DO NOT BUY THEM!!!...

they are really good if you wanna mess around with some of your 4 yr old cousins, then its the trampoline for you... but if your tryin to do anything more than a cork 9, you dont get high enough.

buy a rectangle... so worth it

Practice, master the single part of whatever dub you are doing and then bounce as high as you can and do it and get comfortable with that. Next do 1.5 flips, if you are going for a dub back do one back flip and then over rotate to your back. Front flip is the opposite, do a complete flip then go to your stomach. (Practicing stomach and back drops helps a lot, also get a throw pad of some sorts) When you feel it send it a litter harder and you should have it. Remember to commit and don't stop halfway through, that's how people get hurt. Once you start a flip do everything you can to finish it cause there's no going back.
