Rectangular Trampolines

Rectangular Trampoline Buying Guide

Rectangular trampolines never disappoint when it comes to bounce performance and out of all the trampoline shapes available the rectangle is definitely the safest option.
Due to the variations in spring tension rectangular trampoline frames need to be very strong, much more than the circular trampolines. This means rectangular trampoline frames use strong, very thick sections of galvanized steel tubing which are very durable. Although this may mean that the trampoline price is a little higher you will have a trampoline which is designed to be much stronger, withstand greater weights and will last much longer.

All the pads included with the rectangular trampolines are made from closed cell cross linked shock absorbing foam. This material has been chosen as it is extremely durable and hard wearing and will not deflate for many seasons. Using this type of foam solves another common trampoline pad problem, the issue of the pads becoming waterlogged when left outside. The foam used stops this problem as it does not absorb water. Overall, the trampoline pads used in all the products are very hard wearing and durable, they look great and will definitely last many seasons.

Unlike circular trampolines whose springs have equal force, the springs on a rectangular trampoline are positioned so that they criss-cross each other thus creating an even more stable bounce over the trampoline mat. Rectangular trampolines give a more controlled bounce due to the difference in spring tension along the different length sides and due to the lower pressure there is less chance that the bouncer will be thrown off balance when they move away from the centre.

In rectangular trampolines there are two types of trampolines beds; the standard polypropylene mat and the high performance two string mat. The polypropylene bed can be found on most good quality trampolines; these mats have very good draining properties and allow water to easily pass through stopping the hazard of pooling. Two string mats on the other hand are found in high performance trampolines. They are made from a Nylon weave which has large gaps in between the weave sections. These spaces allows lots more air to pass through which reduces the air resistance and thus creates a bigger, better bounce.
Overall both trampoline mats are very good. They all have strong heavy duty stitching, are UV protected and have very good water draining properties.
