Which shape is the best? Round or rectangular? 

Rectangular Trampolines

Rectangular trampolines are the shape of trampolines used in competition and in the Olympics. The 11 x17 with its extra long jumping surface is a popular choice for families with children involved in tumbling, trampolining, or gymnastics.

A Sundance rectangular trampoline is built like a bridge, they are double the shipping weight of our round trampolines. The long side rails need to be built with re-enforcing or trussing. This type of framework costs a lot more to build than our round trampoline frames.

Round trampolines

A top quality Sundance round trampoline is comparable in performance, quality, and safety, to our best quality rectangular trampolines. When choosing a trampoline for your family, think of the coming years ahead and choose a product that will provide you and your family years of enjoyment and trouble free service.

NOTICE:There are many thousands of poor quality round trampolines on the market today, mainly sold at the big box retailers. These trampolines are low quality, inexpensive, and poor bouncing trampolines, they are built as a child's toy; they are not durable, safe, or built for teenage and adult use.

Octagon and 12-sided Trampolines

These shapes for the most part are, expensive round trampolines. The only reason we would suggest you choose an octagon, or 12-sided trampoline would be if you like the aesthetic look of the shape. Rather than a specialty shape, we would normally recommend that you consider either a rectangular trampoline or one of our top quality round trampolines.

What about safety?

Trampolining teaches children all the skills necessary to be safe in other sports and activities. The trampoline is one of the best device's in the world to teach and improve balance, co-ordination, agility, and reaction time. Sure, you could have an accident on a trampoline just like you could playing soccer, football, hockey, skiing, swimming or even riding a bike, and it may be a lot safer to not let your children participate in these activities, but your children would certainly miss out on some of the best things in life. A Trampoline from Sundance will be one of the greatest things you will ever do for your family. Start Sundancing today!

Which trampoline is the safest?

Safety on a trampoline is not so much about the make, model, or shape, it is more about how the trampoline is being used. It is like driving a car, it's more about how the car is being driven rather than the make or model of the car. However, that been said, there are many low cost, poor quality trampolines on the market that are not suitable or safe for teenage or adult usage.
