Trampoline Users Instructions

1. Read and understand the User's Handbook and all materials furnished with the trampoline before using.
2. Use the trampoline only with mature, knowledgeable supervision.
3. DO NOT attempt somersaults. Somersaults are advanced skills that should be attempted only by experienced and competitive trammpolinists and then only with strict supervision, professional instructions and additional safety equipment. Most crippling injuries that occur during trampoline activities involve somersaults.
4. Permit only one performer at a time on the trampoline. Two (2) or more performers create additional risks of injury due to collisions, being bounced off the trampoline and unexpected responses by the trampoline mat.
5. DO NOT use the trampoline when under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
6. DO NOT use the trampoline as a springboard to or from other objects.
7. DO NOT use trampoline without proper safety pads.
8. Stop your bounce by flexing your knees as your feet come in contact with the trampoline mat.
9. Secure the trampoline against unauthorized and unsupervised use.
10. Learn fundamental bounces and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced skills.
11. Climb on and off the trampoline. DO NOT JUMP.
12. Avoid bouncing too high or when tired.
13. Focus your eyes on the trampoline. Failure to do so may result in a lack of balance and control. Always control your bounce.
14. Keep objects away that could interfere with the performer. Maintain adequatae overhead clearance, and there must be no objects beneath the trampoline.
15. Use the trampoline only when the mat is clean and dry. A wet mat is very slick and prevents a controlled bounce as well as a stable landing. A worn or damaged mat should be replaced immediately.
16. DO NOT stand on trampoline frame or pads while waiting for a turn to bounce.
17. For further information or additional instructional materials, contact a competent trampoline instructor.
18. A copy of these rules are supplied with the trampoline. Attach them to trampoline.
Warning: Trampoline use exposes you to the risk of serious injury, including permanent paralysis or even death from landing on the back, neck or head. This risk exists even if you land on the trampoline mat.
