Checklist For Ground Trampolines For Kids
- The hole under the ground trampoline must have a central depth of 75 to 80 cm. At the same time, the cavity should have the shape of a parabola or cup. It provides optimal stability and prevents injuries.
- Loosen the soil at the bottom of the hole and fill it with pebbles. The layer of stones should be in the shape of a parabola and measure 75 cm from the center of the top to the jumping surface. This way you create a drainage layer. This ensures that rainwater can run off and no waterlogging can form.
- Ideally, the edge of the trampoline should have a 3 – 4 cm thick layer of PVC. It protects you and your children from injuries in case they do not land on the jumping surface. Make sure that the cover extends all the way over the springs.
- A round ground trampoline is more suitable for children and beginners. Intuitively, the user tends to jump towards the center. This reduces the risk of injury. Rectangular trampolines allow higher jumps due to the longer shape. They are suitable for experienced jumpers. For children rather not.
- Get a safety net if you have small children. Adolescents and adults do not need one with a ground trampoline, as the frame height is low.
- Note the maximum weight of the trampoline. The larger the floor trampoline is in diameter, the higher the weight of the jumper may be. Small floor trampolines up to 200 cm in diameter vary from 70 to 100 kg. Medium models with a diameter of 200 to 300 cm have a maximum load of 100 to 120 kg. Large models beyond 400 cm have a load capacity of 120 to 160 kg.
- Pay attention to the length of the springs. The longer and softer the springs, the more comfortable and “stretched” jumping is felt. The range here is from 14 cm for small specimens for children to 22 cm for large ground trampolines.
- The material should be resistant to weathering and UV. The effect is achieved by coatings.
- Make sure that the springs are made of stainless steel. Steel springs with zinc admixture withstand weathering better.
- The seams should be welded several times so that the bounce surface does not tear at the edges.
- Some suppliers offer basketball hoops and soccer nets that can be integrated.

FAQ For Ground Trampolines
As the name suggests, a ground trampoline is embedded in the ground. This works by digging a pit so that the trampoline is close to the ground, but you can still jump without touching the ground ungently with your feet. The height of fall is thus lower and the trampoline is particularly stable.
Under a ground trampoline you should dig a parabolic pit at least 0.75 m deep. Better is 0.8 m.
Ground trampolines should be safe, robust and weatherproof. You are sure to find what you are looking for in our product recommendations.
