  •  Trampoline Park Injury

  •  The regulations for trampoline parks

  •  Tips for staying safe at trampoline parks

 

1. Trampoline Park Injury

Going to the trampoline park for recreation can cause minor sprains and bruises, joint dislocations, fractures and fractures. More serious events include spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury (TBI) and death. Studies show that the number of emergency room visits related to trampoline parks increased from 581 in 2010 to 6,932 in 2014. The average injured was 13 years old, mainly men. During the study, the International Trampoline Park Association reported that there were 281 trampoline parks in the United States. This is equivalent to an average of 24.6 people injured in each park in 2014, or 2 injuries per month in each park, leading to emergency department visits.


There are two main reasons for the trampoline park accident. One is that the customer used the equipment improperly during entertainment, and the other was the collision between the customer and the customer during entertainment.


2. The regulations for trampoline park

Due to the expansion of the trampoline park industry, the regulations which encompass it are continually changing and improving. Beginning with a stakeholder meeting in 2011, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) started to establish new standards for parks. 18 months later, a document titled Standard Practice for Design, Manufacture, Installation, Operation, Maintenance, Inspection and Major Modification of Trampoline Courts was introduced. The purpose of this was to provide a set safety standard that all trampoline parks must adhere to, in order to keep their clientele safe.

 

In 2012, the International Trampoline Park Association (IATP) was established jointly by park owners and franchisees. It's a member-funded organization that includes Jeff Pratt, the chief executive of the Sky Zone franchise, and also leaders from the Altitude Trampoline Park, both of which have sites all over the United States.


ITAP focuses on the safety and standards of the trampoline park. They often hold educational meetings, have insurance programs, trade exhibitions and regulatory tracking and support. If you want to know the safety issues, you can look at the accreditation of these regulators. It will give you an idea of whether the park has top-notch safety features.

 

3. Tips for staying safe at trampoline parks

l Understand the inherent risks

Just like a normal at-home backyard trampoline, parks use a similar spring system around the edge of the trampoline material. This spring system is covered by padding. You'll find a greater variety of trampoline setups ranging from square, to long rectangular and even angled jump surfaces.

Every park has staff on-duty to keep an eye on jumpers, maintain order, and assist if needed. These staff should be taken seriously as their guidance and supervision is essential.

 

l Pay Close Attention to Park Rules

Arriving at any new activity can be both an overwhelming and an extremely exciting time. Because of this, it can be especially hard for young jumpers specifically to pay close attention to a briefing or explanation of rules just before jumping.

One of the best ways to make sure young jumpers follow the rules is to research and cover them at home before you get to the park. If you are bringing your children to the park, it is always best that you keep an eye on them in addition to the safety staff at the location.

 

l Avoid peak times

There are plenty of variables to consider when jumping before you add other participants. Attending a park during off-peak hours is a great way to ensure a more controlled experience. If there are jumpers around, you should act accordingly. The more nearby jumpers, the more reserved your own jumping should be.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, many trampoline-related injuries are caused by collisions involving multiple people. By always following the 'one jumper at a time per trampoline' rule, you can avoid many risky situations.

 

l Separate Jumpers by Age / Weight

Keeping jumpers separated by weight and age always helps maintain order. Young and old or small and large jumpers don't mix well. Some centers offer toddler specific areas or times. This is the best way to safely introduce your young one to the trampoline park.

 

l Know Your Personal Limits & Start Slow

These indoor jump centers feature many activities that were previously only available at established gymnastic training facilities. It is an amazing opportunity to have these facilities available to the public.

It is important to remember that gymnasts undertake extensive training in order to perform their incredible flips and twists. Showing up to a trampoline park without this background, it is easy to think you'll be flipping and spinning all over the place.


The average person has much less training and is not in near the physical condition of a gymnast. The maneuvers that the average person performs are much, much less impressive - though not necessarily less fun!


In summary, these hints are here to help you stay safe when visiting a trampoline park. Trampoline parks are very safe places, if you follow the rules. Most parks have supervisors ensuring that the jumpers are sticking to the rules and staying safe.
