Buying a trampoline - Snowboarding Forum

Hi,

I'd liek to buy a trampoline but i don't haveany clue what to look at. So, what's important when buying one? I have seen very very cheap ones and very expensive ones. I'd liek to have 4.3m or a 3.7 or something like that. Can you guys help me on that?

I didn't find anything with the search. Something liek a buying guide would be nice.

If we get some goof infos here, i'll put them here so others get the info easily.

Thanks!

Get the Olympic rectangular ones that have the higher end springs and stronger, harder, rougher material. Not the shit you get at Wal Mart.

Eh if your thinking about using a snowboard on it tape your edges with duct tape or something and presto it will work fine. Costco, Walmart and Sams club all sell trampoline specials..

I dont know why you would want one though.. I can do backflips on a trampoline but not on a snowboard and its really easy way to fuck up your ankles.

Then don't ask questions about what's good and go get yourself the cheap octagon piece of shit from Wal Mart and bottom it out because it's a turd.

Dont be so agressive. I Dont have any stupid big wal mart here cause im not from the USA. Our markets dont sell trampolines. I would have to go to a special shop. I didn't think that i get very good olympic like quality for a few hundreds.

I just asked what i can get with an afforable price. You can train a lot of stuff on a trampoline. I already jumped on one with a normal board so i know how to tape the edges already, but thanks.

You can train simple graps, getting used to the movment of a backflip which helps doing it in real. train gettign the landing in focus when spinning and stuff and also it makes just fun.
