are trampolines with nets safer? or is it better to just have one without?

yeah. nets are pretty good. I'd be afraid of getting my leg caught in it. but I guess that would be better than slamming my leg on the bar.

Id say so...if you tend to fly off the tramp like me. Whenever I try an off axis spin or flip I always travel about 8ft, scary shit.

ne1 know where you can get nets for rectangle tramps? I've only seen them for circle. I want one for like when me and my friends play like full contact basket ball, where the corner opening are the goals. The ball always flys off the tramp and it sucks to go get it.

they make nets that you can put up around your tramp (attaches to your tramp) that is about 7-8 feet tall so you don't fly off.

BUY A NET!!!!!!!!!!!
My best friend just fell off ours and broke his back and severed his spinal cord. It was a pretty freak accident but nonetheless it happened and I wouldn't like to see anyone in the position that he's in right now. The kid won't ever be able to walk again much less ski so I would say it is worth the extra money to get it.

the biggest risk is spending too much time on it and not getting any work done. other than that, theres not really anything. except broken necks, faces, arms, wrists, backs, knees, ankles, dislocated shoulders, sprains and pulls of anywhere, sackings, and almost any other injury you can think of.

If u start with the basics, and don't go straight to crazy shit then thee shouldn't be a problem. learn how to control yourself on a tramp before u try flips and shit.

yeah learn where you are in the air, and how to jump properly, and most of all fall properly, then you seriously minimize gettin hurt

I use my neihbors tramps. One with the net and one without. I do all my inverts on the netted one and it saved me a lot pain. I would hit it and it would safely guide me to a fun and bouncy crash landing! Get the net IT HELPS!
