Who's most at risk

  • Children — Prolonged use; hand-to-mouth behavior; acute injury risk from mechanical hazards; developing organ systems

How to use it more safely

  • Inspect trampoline regularly for damaged springs, torn mat, or corroded frame
  • Limit use to children within manufacturer's age and weight specifications
  • Supervise all use, especially for young children
  • Ensure safety enclosure net is intact and properly attached
  • Use one person at a time when possible
  • Provide proper landing zone clearance around trampoline
  • Wear appropriate footwear to avoid slipping

Red flags — when to walk away

  • Visible rust on frame or springs — Corrosion advancing; galvanized coating compromised; zinc leaching accelerating
  • Torn or severely degraded polypropylene mat — Material is actively degrading and releasing particles; safety net failing
  • Broken or weakened springs — Acute injury risk; sharp edges possible; loss of structural support

Green flags — what to look for

  • ASTM F381 or EN 13219 compliance marked — Equipment meets recognized safety standards
  • Stainless steel frame and springs explicitly labeled — No galvanizing; no zinc/cadmium leaching risk

Safer alternatives

  • Spring-free trampoline (elastic band suspension) — Eliminates spring breakage hazard; newer technology
  • Stainless steel trampoline — Superior corrosion resistance; higher cost
