There are many injuries suffered needlessly on trampolines each
year because proper safety regulations and guidelines are not followed
as well as they should be. One such guideline for your trampoline
is a trampoline safety pad. This small addition to your backyard
trampoline apparatus can save serious injury.
The majority of trampoline injuries occur because of a collision
on the trampoline between users, improper landing while jumping
or doing stunts on the trampoline, falling directly off the trampoline,
or falling on the trampoline springs or the frame. These injury
causes, therefore, speak to a bigger problem of leaving trampoline
users unsupervised on the trampoline and without the proper safety
equipment, especially the trampoline safety pad.
Trampoline pads are a Fun Spot specialty. Our trampoline pads represent
the best value in their markets. All Fun Spot trampoline pads contain
the best shock absorbent, high density, closed-cell foam that will
not absorb water, mildew or lose shape. All Fun Spot trampoline
pads exceed all national ASTM standards.
Following are the available Pad Types:
Master Trampoline Pads
Our Master trampoline pads cover both frame and springs with an
extra-wide plank of 1-inch thick foam for maximum protection. The
Master trampoline pads are 15-inches wide and overlap the edge of
the black mat, leaving no protection gap.
Standard Trampoline Pads
Our Standard trampoline pads are 12-inches wide and sit atop the
frame and springs. While most trampoline pads protect springs with
only 1/4" of foam, our Standard trampoline pads use a full inch
for superior protection.
Budget Trampoline Pads
Our Master trampoline pads cover both frame and springs with an
extra-wide plank of 1-inch thick foam for maximum protection. The
Master trampoline pads are 15-inches wide and overlap the edge of
the black mat, leaving no protection gap.
Hedstrom Trampoline Pads
Hedstrom trampoline pads are recommended only for our most cost
conscious customers and are available only for Hedstrom and NBF
trampolines. The cover of this safety pads is 11-inches wide and
contains 1-inch thick foam over the frame. These pads are covered
with a 100-gram polyethylene shell.
Rectangular Trampoline Mat
Fun Spot's rectangular trampoline pad is a full pad, not the simple
frame pads sold elsewhere. Fun Spot rectangular trampoline pads
contain a 1-inch thick plank of closed-cell polyethylene foam that
will not absorb water, mildew or lose shape. Our rectangular trampoline
pad is covered with heavy PVC vinyl that has the properties of premium
22-ounce vinyl. The pad is reversible so you can prolong its life
by rotating the pad annually. The pad is attached with bungee cords
for resilience and strength.
