Mr Bounce Says – Trampolines and Trampolining Specialist

I read a trampoline blog yesterday that suggested trampolines should be taken down and put away so that they are not damaged by snow and sub zero temperatures. Oh dear! Maybe if you have a really low cost trampoline with small springs, a lightweight frame, open cell foam in the pads and a Far Eastern fabric bed you might just be better off to play safe and pack it away for the winter. However, having cleared the snow and ice off a Super Tramp Fun Bouncer in the Scottish Highlands on several occasions for a load of neighbourhood kids to enjoy a New Years Day festive bounce, I can vouch for the fact that a) the kids had a brilliant time in spite of slightly chilled toes and b) the trampoline which is still going strong 10 years later has suffered no ill effects.

This is one of the wonderful things about a good garden trampoline. Leave it out in all weathers, provided it is well anchored down and when the rain or snow stops, it is ready to deliver some warming winter fun, fresh air and exercise.

Which all goes to show that some people who write blogs to try to improve their web visibility really do not have a clue and that perhaps it may not be wise to just buy a particular trampoline because it’s so cheap.
