Octagonal v Round Trampolines

Octagonal Trampolines:

Octagon Trampolines are much safer than the circular design. The springs on an Octagon trampoline offset the centre because of the eight straight rails, so they end up criss-crossing each other to some extent. This results in less pressure behind you and you are less likely to be thrown forward off balance and into one another. There also is more vertical travel in the mat because of eight straight sides. The reason for this is because the springs in the centre of the rails stretch more than the springs toward the end of the rails. This produces a softer, better and more controlled bounce then the round design.

Round Trampolines:

On round trampolines every spring points right into the centre and makes the centre of a trampoline soft. When you move out from the centre, the bounce gets harder behind you. If you lose your balance or concentration you may be thrown forward off balance. ROSPA recongise that approx 50% of trampoline injuries occur when there is more than one person jumping on a round trampoline and therefore the risk of collision increases.
