Trampolines are not only a great source of amusement for children and of exercise for adults. Indeed, trampolines - and more specifically, trampoline mats - also pose a significant safety risk if they are not maintained, repaired, or replaced when necessary. If your trampoline's warranty has expired or if it never had one in the first place, and its mat has developed holes, rips, or cracks, it is a good idea to replace your trampoline.

Trampoline mats are a Fun Spot specialty. Offering the industry's widest range of options for trampoline mats, Fun Spot leads the industry in quality, price and innovation.

Fun Spot is the only brand in the world ever to weave its own fabrics for trampoline mats. With over 350,000 Fun Spot trampoline mats sold, our innovative fabrics are time tested and second to none. Select among basic black, solid black performance weave and our exclusive targeted weave for added safety. Our trampoline mats are super-strong with burst strengths of 800-pounds per square inch. Fun Spot's standard trampoline mats are sewn with 8-rows of heavy-duty UV-resistant thread and use galvanized triangular v-rings for long life.

We have over 35-years experience supplying trampoline mats compatible with Fun Spot, JumpKing, Hedstrom, NBF, Roadmaster, Flexible Flyer, Bollinger, Sky Bouncer, Bazoongi, Jump Pro, Magic Circle, Giant, Hercules, Sidlinger, Nissen and other brands.

We believe in our quality and back our trampoline fabric with the industry's best warranty. While the fabric on other trampoline mats has a pro-rated warranty requiring customers to pay up to 90% of the replacement cost, Fun Spot trampoline fabric has the industry's only real 5-year warranty. Our heavy-duty stitching is warranted for a full two years.

Mentioned below are the options available for your existing Trampoline :

Performance Weave
Rectangle and octagon trampoline mat customers can select between normal and performance weaves. Performance trampoline mat fabric has more porosity and delivers a slightly better bounce due to reduced air resistance while jumping. Performance trampoline mat fabric is made of black polypropylene and is not similar to competition grade Euro or Aussie string mats.

Colored Fabrics
Add fun and style to your trampoline with our unique color options. Our colored fabrics are woven with a blend of colored and black yarns making the color intensity change with viewing angle. The fabrics reflect away more heat, making them cooler for tender feet. Be the first in your neighborhood to say no to boring black. Available in 4-Check Fabric, Half/Half Fabric, Deep Blue Fabric, Bermuda Green Fabric, Pecan Tan Fabric & Plum Purple Fabric.

Targeted Safety Fabric
Fun Spot's exclusive targeted safety fabric adds safety to every bounce. The unique targeted design helps jumpers remain in the center, the safest part of the trampoline. Center reference points are standard on all Olympic trampoline mats and this innovative fabric finally delivers this safety enhancement to your backyard. Unlike printed targets that always wear off, Fun Spot's unique woven target provides a permanent safety advantage. Available for mats up to 12-ft 5-inches wide (165-cm).

SunShield
Fun Spot's SunShield™ adds years to the life of trampoline mats by protecting perimeter stitching from UV-exposure. Typically, the rows of stitching around the perimeter of trampoline mats last about 30% to 50% as long as the actual fabric. After this perimeter stitching fails, trampoline mats must be repaired or replaced. SunShield is a heavy-duty blue webbing, wider and heavier than seat belt webbing and it is sewn on top of the perimeter stitching of trampoline mats to protect them from UV-exposure. SunShield will approximately double the life of your structural stitching. While the stitching on basic trampoline mats is warranted for 2-years, SunShield extends this stitching warranty to 4-years. Color Selection: White, Pecan Tan, Black & Blue.

DuraClip
Fun Spot's patented composite DuraClips™ greatly prolongs the life of round trampoline mats by totally eliminating perimeter stitching, the weakest part of all trampoline mats. With stitching eliminated, so to is the need for periodic trampoline mat repair. This solution is perfect for families who live in high UV regions or who expect to use their trampoline mat for many years to come. DuraClips are warranted for 5-years and virtually eliminate the need for repairs. Available to only round trampolines mat buyers.
