WARNING
IMPORTANT
High Wind: The trampoline can be blown around by high winds. If you expect high winds, the trampoline should be moved to a sheltered location, taken apart, or tied down to the ground with ropes and stakes (NOT INCLUDED). At least four ropes and four stakes should be used. Make sure to attach the ropes to the top of the frame: DO NOT simply secure the legs or the bases to the ground, as they can seperate from the frame sockets. The top of the stakes should be at ground level so they will not create a tripping hazard. In addition, the top of the stakes should be covered, if necessary, so that users will not be injured by falling on the stakes. The only sure method to protect your trampoline and the surrounding environment during high winds is to completely disassemble the unit and store indoors. The manufactures warranty does not cover any type of wind or weather damage.

TRAMPOLINE SAFETY INFORMATION
In trampoline use, as in all active recreational sports, participants can be injured. However, there are steps that can be taken to reduce the risk of injury. In this section, primary accident patterns are identified and the responsibilities of supervisors and jumpers in accident prevention are described.
ACCIDENT CLASSIFICATION
Somersaults (ips): Landing on your head or neck, even in the middle of the trampoline mat, increases the risk of a
broken back or neck, which can result in paralysis or death. Such events can occur when a jumper makes an error trying to perform a forward or backward somersault (flip). Do not perform somersaults (flips) on this backyard trampoline.
Multiple Jumpers: More than one jumper at a time on the trampoline increases the chance of a jumper becoming injured by losing control of his or her jump. Jumpers may collide with one another, fall off of the trampoline, fall onto or through the springs, or land incorrectly on the mat. The jumper weighing the least is the jumper most likely to be injured.
Mounting and Dismounting (Getting On and O): The trampoline mat is several feet above ground level. Jumping from the trampoline to the ground or any other surface may result in injury. Jumping onto the trampoline from a roof, deck, or other objects also presents a risk of injury. Smaller children may need assistance getting onto or down from the trampoline. Climb carefully onto and off of the trampoline. Do not step onto the springs or the frame pad. Do not grasp the frame pad to pull yourself onto the trampoline.
Striking the Frame or the Springs: Injury may result from hitting the frame or falling through the springs while jumping or getting onto or off of the trampoline. Stay in the center of the mat when jumping. Be sure to keep the frame pad in place to cover the frame. The frame pad is not made or intended to support the weight of the trampoline user. Do not step or jump directly onto the frame pad.
Loss of Control: Jumpers who lose control of their jumps may land on the mat incorrectly, land on the frame or springs, or fall off of the trampoline. A controlled jump is one where the landing is in the same spot as the takeoff. Before learning a more difficult stunt, you should be able to do one before over and over with control . Attempting a stunt beyond present skill levels increases the chance of loss of control. To regain control and stop your jump, bend your knees sharply when you land.
Alcohol or Drug Use: The chance of injury increases when a jumper has consumed alcohol or taken drugs. These substances impair a person’s reaction time, judgment, and physical coordination.
Encountering Objects: Jumping on a trampoline while other people, pets, or objects are underneath it will increase the chance of getting hurt. Jumping while holding or having an object on the trampoline, particularly one that is sharp or breakable, will increase the chance of injury. Placing a trampoline too close to overhead electrical wires, tree limbs, or other objects can increase the chance of injury.
Poor Maintenance of the Trampoline: Jumpers may be injured if a trampoline is used when it is in poor condition. A torn mat, bent frame, broken spring, or missing frame pad, for example, should be replaced before anyone is allowed to jump. Inspect the trampoline before each use.
Weather Conditions: A wet trampoline mat is too slippery for safe jumping. Gusty or high winds can cause jumpers to lose control. To reduce the chance of injury, use the trampoline only when the weather is good.
Access: To prevent access to the trampoline by unsupervised smaller children, the optional access ladder should always be taken away and stored in a safe place when the trampoline is not in use.

ENCLOSURE SAFETY INFORMATION
NEED FOR TRAMPOLINE ENCLOSURE SAFETY
A trampoline enclosure is a recreational product.
The information on this page and on pages 7-9 identify important safety precautions. The precautions are not all-inclusive, because an enclosure can be used in ways that this manual cannot cover completely.
To prevent pinches and cuts during enclosure use, a frame pad must be installed on the trampoline (See the trampoline manufacturer’s instructions). The frame pad must be placed on the trampoline before the enclosure is erected. The frame pad reduces the chance of injury from accidental contact with the springs and frame.
USING THE ENCLOSURE SAFELY
Adult Supervision of Children
Children using a trampoline with a trampoline enclosure must be supervised by adults. Young children must be supervised constantly. Adults must pay particular attention to:
• things that children bring into the enclosure.
• children’s activities inside the enclosure.
• conditions inside the enclosure while children are using it.
• the way children enter and exit the enclosure.
Additional details of safety enclosure use are described below.
Electrocution Hazard Associated with the Metal Frame of the Trampoline and Enclosure
The trampoline and enclosure frames are made of galvanized steel. They are not grounded and will conduct electricity. For this reason, an electrocution hazard exists. No lights, electric heaters, extension cords, or household electrical appliances are to be permitted on the trampoline or in the enclosure at any time.
Hazards Associated with Entering and Leaving the Trampoline Enclosure
A trampoline enclosure installed on a trampoline is raised off the ground. The height of the enclosure increases the risk of a fall when a jumper is entering or leaving the enclosure. Young children, especially, may have difficulty entering and exiting the enclosure. To reduce the risk of falling, always help young children to get into and out of the enclosure.
Enter and exit the trampoline enclosure only through the door of the enclosure (the opening in the netting walls). The trampoline mat (bed) and the netting walls of the enclosure are separate pieces. No jumper, especially young children, should ever leave the enclosure by going out between the mat and the netting walls. Trying to get out this way creates a risk of choking from being caught between the trampoline frame and the netting walls.
Darkness increases the chances of a fall when a jumper is entering or leaving the enclosure. Do not use the trampoline unless there is plenty of lighting provided.
Hazards Associated with Animals, Sharp or Breakable Objects
To avoid damage to the trampoline enclosure and the trampoline, do not allow pets or other animals inside of the enclosure. The claws and teeth of animals can damage the netting. Do not jump on the trampoline while holding or wearing a sharp or breakable object.

METHODS OF ACCIDENT PREVENTION
The Supervisor's Role in Preventing Accidents
It is the responsibility of the supervisors of trampoline users to provide knowledgeable and mature supervision. They need to know and enforce all of the rules and warnings printed in this manual to minimize the likelihood of accidents and injuries. They also need to inform users of these rules. During periods of time when supervision is unavailable or inade­quate, this may require that the trampoline is taken down, placed in a secure area, or otherwise secured against unautho­rized use. Another option that may be considered is covering the trampoline with a heavy tarp that can be secured with locks and chains. It is the responsibility of the supervisor to make sure that the placard with TRAMPOLINE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (see step 14 in assembly instructions) is kept posted on the trampoline and that jumpers are informed about these instructions.
The Jumper's Role in Preventing Accidents
Education on the part of the user is a must for safety. Users must first learn a low, controlled bounce and then learn the basic landing positions and combinations before proceeding to intermediate skills. Jumpers must understand why they have to master "control" before they can start thinking about other moves. Understanding the proper progression of skills in jumping on a trampoline must be the first lesson. Review this manual to learn about the basic techniques for using the trampoline. Follow the rules on the placard with TRAMPOLINE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (see step 14 in assembly instructions). For further information or additional instructional materials, contact a certified trampoline instructor.
TRAMPOLINE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For the Supervisor
Read the instructions before using the trampoline. Enforce all of the safety rules. Become familiar with the information in this manual so you can help new users learn basic jumps and all users follow trampoline safety. All trampoline users must have mature, knowledgeable supervision, regardless of their skill or age. This trampoline is not recommended for use by children under 6 years of age. Inspect the trampoline before using it. Do not use the trampoline without the frame pad securely in place to cover the frame. Do not use the trampoline in wet or windy conditions. A worn or damaged mat, spring, or frame piece should be replaced immediately.
JUMPING
Learn fundamental jumps and body positions thoroughly before trying more advanced skills. Know your own limits in performing each of the trampoline jumps. Study this manual to learn how to do basic jumps. Stop your bounce by flexing your knees as your feet come in contact with the trampoline mat. Learn this skill before attempting any others.
WARNING
Hazards Associated with High Winds
A trampoline with an enclosure can be moved or blown over by high winds. Anyone in its path, or inside of the enclosure, may be injured if this happens. If you expect high winds, take down the enclosure netting and stake the trampoline frame
to the ground (see page 24), or move the trampoline and enclosure to a sheltered location.

WARNING
Storing the Trampoline Enclosure Safely
Specific steps for storing the trampoline enclosure are given later in this manual. There are special safety precautions to be aware of when storing the enclosure. Remove the enclosure poles and place them on the ground. Avoid pinching your fingers by wearing gloves and keeping your fingers away from pinch points near the bracket assembly while you are removing the tubes from the frame.
Placing the Trampoline and Enclosure in a Safe Place
There must be at least 24 feet (7.3 meters) of clear, open space above the ground. Do not place or store anything under­neath the trampoline and enclosure. To avoid injury, the trampoline and enclosure must be kept away from objects and possible hazards including electric power wiring, tree limbs, and fences. Do not place the trampoline and enclosure near any other recreational devices or structures such as a swimming pool or swing set. The trampoline and enclosure must be placed on a level surface before use. The area around the trampoline must always have plenty of light.
For the Supervisor
• Be familiar with the information in this manual and enforce all of the safety rules. Help all users to utilize the trampoline and enclosure safely.
• All trampoline and enclosure users must have someone to supervise them at all times, regardless of the skill or age of the user.
• Secure the trampoline and enclosure against unauthorized and unsupervised use. Keep the trampoline and enclosure free of any objects that could interfere with the jumper.
• This trampoline and enclosure is not recommended for use by children under 6 years of age or by anyone weighing more than 200 pounds.
• Use the trampoline and enclosure only when the trampoline mat (bed) is clean and dry. Inspect the trampoline and enclosure prior to each use and replace any worn or damaged parts. Use only when the enclosure netting has no holes, all uprights are tightly bolted into their sockets, and the netting is properly suspended.
DO NOT attempt or allow somersaults on the trampoline. Landing on the back or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis, or death, even when landing in the middle of the bed.
For the Jumper
Do not use the trampoline enclosure when under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
JUMPING
• Avoid jumping too high or for too long. Always control your jump.
• Take turns jumping one at a time, and always have someone watch you.
• Do not attempt to jump over the netting. Do not intentionally bounce off of the netting. Do not hang from, kick, cut, or climb on the netting.
• Wear clothing that does not have drawstrings, hooks, loops or anything else that could get caught while using the trampoline/enclosure and result in entanglement or strangulation, or both.
• Do not attach anything to the netting that is not a Skywalker Trampolines approved accessory or part of the of the trampoline enclosure.

GETTING ON AND OFF THE TRAMPOLINE
Climb onto and off of the trampoline. Do not jump onto or off of it. Do not use the trampoline as a springboard to jump to other objects or places.
ENTERING AND EXITING THE TRAMPOLINE ENCLOSURE
The Trampoline should be used only under the appropriate adult supervision. A ZIPPER CLIP IS PROVIDED TO HELP SECURE THE TRAMPOLINE AGAINST UNSUPERVISED USE BY CHILDREN AND TO KEEP THE ZIPPER IN THE CLOSED POSITION DURING USE. A responsible adult supervisor should be present to assure that the zipper clip is attached to the D-ring on the jump mat and that the horizontal clips are attached to the D-rings on the enclosure netting, both during use and after use.
For additional information regarding equipment, contact Skywalker Holding, LLC. For additional information regarding skill training, contact a trainer certification organization.
USE AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIAL
OVERVIEW OF TRAMPOLINE USE
The first periods of trampoline use should focus on learning fundamental body positions and practicing the eight basic bounces that are described on pages 10 and 11.
During this learning period, jumpers should practice these basic techniques and perfect them. Braking, or checking the bounce, should be taught first and stressed as a safety measure. Jumpers should brake their jump whenever they start to lose their balance or control. This is done by simply flexing the knees sharply upon landing and absorbing the upward thrust of the mat. This allows the jumper to stop suddenly and avoid losing control.
With trampoline use, the takeoff point and landing point of a good, controlled jump are in the same spot. An exercise is considered learned only when a jumper is able to perform it correctly time after time. Jumpers should never go on to any advanced stunt until they can perform all previous stunts correctly each time.
Allow each jumper a brief turn on the trampoline. Extended bouncing exposes an overtired user to an increased risk of injury. Longer turns tend to lessen the interest of others waiting to jump. Clothing should consist of a T-shirt and shorts. Jumpers should wear regulation gymnastic shoes or heavy socks, or they may jump barefoot. Street shoes or tennis shoes should not be worn on the trampoline. Beginning jumpers may wish to wear loose-fitting protective clothes, such as a long-sleeve shirt and pants, until correct landings are mastered. This will reduce the chance of mat (bed) burns from improper landings on elbows and knees. No hard-sole shoes should be worn, as they cause extra wear on the trampoline mat.
Mounting and dismounting (getting on and off) properly should be a strict rule from the beginning. Users should climb onto the trampoline by placing their hands on the frame and stepping or rolling up onto the frame, across the springs, and onto the mat. They should not step directly on the frame pad or hold on to the frame pad when getting onto or off of the trampoline. Users should always place their hands on the frame while getting on or off. To get off, jumpers should walk to the side of the mat, bend over and place one hand on the frame, and then step from the mat to the ground. If you have installed the optional ladder, its rungs can be used to get on or off. Always face the ladder and place your hands on the frame. Make sure your foot has secure contact with the ladder rung when using it.
Reckless bouncing should not be permitted. All skills should be learned at moderate heights. Control, rather than height, should be emphasized. Jumpers should be forbidden to practice alone and unsupervised.

4. Push with your hands to return to an erect position.
5. Half twist to the feet. Seat drop, knee drop, hand and knee drop, repeat.
Lesson 7: Half Turntable
1. To save time and avoid mat (bed) burns, all students should be requested to assume the front drop position on the floor while the instructor checks for faults. Suggested progression: from hand and knee bounce, the body is extended for the landing in the front drop position, and the rebound is made to the feet.
2. Start from a low bounce and land on the mat in a prone position.
3. Keep your head up and your arms extended forward on the mat.
4. Push with your arms to return to an erect position.
Lesson 8: Swivel Hips
1. Review and practice of skills already learned.

5. After completing a half turn, land in the front drop position.
1. Suggested progression: seat drop, feet, half twist, repeat; seat drop, half twist to feet, repeat; seat drop, half twist to seat drop.
2. Start with a seat drop.
3. Turn your head to the left or right and swing your arms up in the same direction.
4. Turn your hips in the same direction as your head and arms, completing a twist.
5. Land in the seat drop position.
Lesson 9
Once each of lessons are learned, the student should now be encouraged to design and organize routines, with emphasis on good form. The instructor may judge or grade students and arrange groupings for further instruction accordingly. To stimulate interest in competition, the game of “Trampoline Horse” can be introduced. Before the game begins, students must count off. To start the game, student number 1 performs a stunt. Student number 2 then mounts the trampoline, performs the same stunt and adds a second stunt. Student number 3 mounts and performs stunts 1 and 2 and adds a third stunt. Thus the series of stunts is continuously lengthened. The first person to miss a stunt in the series assumes the letter “H” and starts a new series with a stunt. If a person misses again, he assumes the letter “O.” When a person accumulates “H-O-R-S-E,” he or she is eliminated from the game. The last remaining contestant is the winner. Lesson planning from this point on should be facilitated by contacting a certified trampoline instructor.
