i got a jump king with net and crossed some springs, i get a good amount of air, but if you have a good amount of money go for a rectangle with a net, gay people might say its pussy, but when i'm learning new tricks the net has saved me soooooooo many times

ya man nets are key

except when you get to close to the net and catch ur feet or sumthin then they just suck but unless you have the cash to dig a big hole to put it in then get the net for sure

mines really good. i dont know what its called. but whatever you do make sure it has springs.... trust me.
the walmart ones are pretty good, or you could go to a sporting goods store and look for a more quality one.

and nets are nice.

if you get a trampoline with a net try to get one with a net that has small holes so you cant catch

take it from me!

nets are fine, but a waste of money in my opinion. also

DONT GET ELASTIC BANDS!!!

they SUUUUCK. I have one, and damn im pissed I bought it. in fact, if been looking for a new trampolien recently and found a few intresting things.

you can get rectangular tramps (better bounce) for around 1,500--but thats kind of expensive. If you see one on ebay thats bigger than 10' by 15' for sunder 800 or so, id buy it.

other than that, try and look for a new circle tramp that like 15'; they usually sell for around 500, but if you find one for cheap, then thats great.

in my opinion, nets suck. i have a jumpking i think and its been 7 years adn its still fine. crossed our springds up last summer and had to dig a small, tpaered hole nuder it so we dont hit the ground anymore but its all good. i try to use it every day. 12 ft might be a little small. go 14 or 16
