Protecting Your Trampoline – Covers and Other Accessories

Feb. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Have you recently invested in a full sized trampoline for your family? Trampolines are one of the best devices for combining fun and entertainment with cardiovascular exercise. Kids will spend hours jumping, flipping and twisting on a trampoline mat without even realizing that they're getting in their physical activity for the day! Adults too have become very fond of the trampoline as an exercise tool in the past few years, as it is one of the best low impact workouts for losing weight and strengthening core muscles. If you wonder how you ever got along without your trampoline, it's important to take steps to protect and maintain it.
One of the things that will take the worst toll on your trampoline if you store it outside is the sun. Just like with your skin, the UV rays of the sun can fade and weaken the trampoline net, which is the synthetic fabric netting that you jump on. It's important to inspect your trampoline before each use to make sure that your safety isn't jeopardized by holes, tears, or frays in the mat. If you leave your mat exposed to the sun for months at a time, it's likely that you'll start to see these damages after only a few seasons.
IN order to protect your trampoline mat from the rays of the sun, it's important to purchase a trampoline cover for your trampoline structure. Before you start shopping around for trampoline accessories, it's important to take some accurate measurements of your structure. If you don't still have the original details about the height, width, and circumference (for round trampolines) of your equipment, it will be necessary to take them yourself. Make sure you work with a helper so that your measurements will be exact.
