12 Foot Trampoline Pad

Spring has arrived and the trampoline is being setup outdoors again. Make sure your trampoline pads are in good shape or get good quality pads to protect the jumpers. Note the pads come in different sizes. One of the most popular sizes it the 12 foot round trampoline.



Another thing to consider is that if you are in a "wind tunnel" area where the trampoline may blow away during a windstorm, you can drive some stakes into the ground and tie the trampoline down. Will explore various ways of tying down a trampoline in a future post, but some suggestions include putting a bolt right through one of the legs and through the stake, or you could use thick wire or rope and tie it around the trampoline and through a hole in the stake. In any case, 10 minutes of work now will save you the aggrevation of chasing the trampoline down the yard if a wind storm should come, just something to keep in mind.

Once the trampoline pads are on and the trampoline is secure, the fun can begin!
