Inground Trampolines and your children

One very interesting statistic provides a good clue to trampoline safety. Three out of four trampoline injuries occur when two or more people are on the trampoline. Also, the person who weighs the least is five times more likely to be injured than the heavier person. If possible, have kids take turns bouncing. If two people are on, try to make sure they weigh approximately the same. Adult supervision is not enough to ensure trampoline safety. About half of all accidents occur in supervised situations. It’s more important for adults to act as “spotters” to catch those who get too close to the edge of the equipment.
