    I'm very worried that the surge in popularity of garden trampolines and their falling price making them more accessible is going to lead to a lot of injuries. I hope their won't be too many serious injuries from them and I hope their won't be a negative impact on my sport. Please read the British Gymnastics Garden Trampolines Statement accessible under Downloads; Trampolining Technical Committee; British Gymnastics Garden Trampolines Statement.

    went and had a look at this today, trampoline seems ok except the padded mat that covers the springs is very thin 1cm or maybe 1.5cm.

    Decided to pay the extra £30 and go for the toys R us offer, 8ft normally £180, £50 off when trampoline and enclosure are bought together bringing it down to £130. £20 extra for a rain cover

    Still in the box though as it's been chucking it down all day :rolleyes:

    I also paid the extra for the toysRus one, but really you dont need to as although, yes i agree, the padding is not as good it really does not need to be if using the enclosure as the children cannot land on springs as enclosure stops them falling onto springs anyway, had i realsied this i would have been just as happy with the £99 from focus or TJ hughes

    P.s just for those wondering i got an 8 foot with enclosure and it certainly is dead easy to put together you really do not need two people for this

    I posted here about one in Focus for £99.99!

    I'd already bought one a couple of weeks ago from sweatband fitness for £145 which also included a raincover. The padding thickness is 2.5 cm so is a decent thickness.

    There's this one on ebay but it's quite expensive.
    I haven't seen them anywhere else and I feel like I've been living and breathing trampolines these last few weeks :rolleyes:
