Seeing that summer time will soon be here once again young children from coast to coast are going to be asking their mother and father for trampolines as well as climbing frames to play on in their backyards. At this point many concerned parents will say no because they are too dangerous resulting in summer long arguments and general grumpiness from the kids.
While trampolines are an easy way to keep the children entertained on a hot summers day they can also be quite dangerous with 1000s of kids needing a trip to A&E each year. Every year a large number of youngsters find themselves in hospital with cuts, bruises or worse that they get from playing on trampolines. Fortunately for moms and dads whose youngsters simply won’t be happy without a trampoline to spend the summer months 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 produced that eliminates the the two areas where individuals are most likely to be hurt. One of the major problems with the old style of trampolines was the springs with wounds often sustained by either falling through or landing on the edge of the trampoline itself. The old solution to this problem was to cover the springs with extra padding however it was at best an inadequate answer with a lot of injuries still being sustained and an expensive one as the padding would need replacing every 2-3 years at a considerable cost. The Springfree Trampoline has been produced to eradicate these problems and change trampoline technology. Instead of springs bounce is supplied by a system of rods so that the frame as well as the spring system is now below the jumping surface area helping prevent accidents and injuries with the Springfree Softedge system. Other developments to guarantee the safety of children include the Flexinet enclosure system that is just found on Springfree trampolines. Nets have been around for some time but typically employed rigid steel pipes which were just as likely to hurt kids as keep them safe and sound. The Flexinet enclosure is unique since it uses a flexible frame system instead of steel pipes to gently and safely guide children back to the centre of the trampoline. This summer if your kids must have a trampoline to play on ensure it is a safe one that use Springfree technology to keep them safe and sound. You can find a great range of Springfree trampolines online and also in your nearby toy store.
