do they stop you when you fly to the side or just toppled over and get you tangled?

i don't think so cause how often do you fall off the tramp? not very often.

if you go at it with forced it will prob brake your fall but not keep you on the tramp. only get the good quality ones cause some og them suckass and fall appart.

they were made for safty but the majority of tramp injurys are from on the tramp (broken necks etc.) i don't have a tramp and really don't like them i have seen about 5 people that are parilized from them and a diving board works just a good for me

i have one, i got it for $40 cdn for some reason it was so cheap, plus i didnt pay for it. i guess it helps (its saved me a handful of times) but i dont think it would hurt to fall off anyways. you can also play some pretty cool games on it and not worry about anyone getting hurt. its good for those drunk times when theres like 10 people on it at once and everyones pushing each other. yep.

no no no they are bad. if you are anything like me, you get some hight when you are bouncing, and when we want to go really high, we double bounce eachother, which can occasionaly send the reciever of the super bounce a little squirrely. that being said, my buddy doubled me and i got squirrel-like, and was shot off at the netting. i was so high that my feet got caught and tangled in the netting, so instead of just falling off and landing fine like i normally would, i got stuck upside down, and then it tore off the supports and i fell headfirst onto the metal frame of the tramp. it sucked. i had to get 14 stiches in my head. dont get one. just land on the ground, it is like falling off a kicker anyway.

i was going to ask this same question but i figured since i weigh 190 and the net is probly only designed to hold the impact of a 5th grader i'd probly just be better off without it

I hate nets, I wouldn't take one even if I was offered a free one, I can't jump at all with nets I get really claustraphobic. I fall off of my trampoline all the time and I haven't died yet-- and I'm a pussy.

if you have a net, make sure you wear socks. as gay as it sounds, your feet might get caught in the net and it'll hang your ass. it happened to me once (i have trouble staying in the middle of the tramp)

I got kicked in the chest while I was in the air on a tramp into a near by tree and I was fine. Tramp nets are useless.

wait if whe you say your tramp is in the ground do you mean that its like flush with the ground or that it is like in a hole and you have dirt walls on the side cuz that would be crazy

yah i used to have a tramp waaay back in middle school and one time i had 8 friends double bounce me as i jumped off the roof of my house.....even a ten foot net would not have stopped me from flying off the tramp and landing right on top of my head.....i was throughly amazed at the fact that i could move after the sounds my neck made when i hit the ground

ive got one, when we bought the tramp like 4 years ago my mom wouldnt get it unless it had a net for my little bro. anyways i think its great. they arent for keeping you on the tramp when your in the air but rather when you land funny and get kicked to the side really fast. ive hit mine like at least a couple hundered times at high speeds from landing stuff short and gettin launched to the side. i also try crazier stuff just knowing that if i fuck up ill bump into the net and be fine. peace,

i think i think i like it like thata

you don't neeed one, i've been tramping for over 12 years and have only fell off maybe 5 times that i can remeber and never have i been seriously injured so save yourself the money and you don't need one just take the spill, i mean do you use a net at the bottom of a 40 foot table to save you if you fall? no you take it, and it's not gonna hurt that much off a fall of say 10 feet or so

I'm more skeered for some reason of fallin off a tramp than fallin on a huge table.
