superstine
i need a really fast, strong pump for a float.
i know most water rafts can blow up quite easily but this one is HUGE and would take hours by hand pump.
i need some type of industrial one that will blow up monster truck tires (slight exaggeration)
any ideas where i could maybe even rent one in Florida?
thanks for any advice!
Answer
u can usually get a pump made specially for blowing up tubes and jumpy water trampolines, and etc. at a local marina , but sometimes if u find a vacum cleaner (stay with me, it really works!) that has a reverse option and attach an adapter nozzle to the end of the tube that blows OUT and blow it up! a good vacum is the rigid wet vac hope i helped! (it sounded a little confusing, i no!

What is the best water trampoline? 10 points for best answer!?
gymnast
my family is buying a house on a lake and i have always dreamed of having a water trampoline. My birthday is in july and i was hoping to use this to my advantage. I am a competitive gymnast and i need the most jumping room for under $400. i would prefer a new one but i know that is hard with my price range. 8 feet of the actual trampoline part will not be enough for me. My dad is hard to convince he needs to have lots of research to even think of buying one. To maximize my chances of actually getting one i need to do a ton of research so he doesn't have to, so please add links. Thank you for your help!
Answer
The following is a list of many of the frequently asked questions about water trampolines.
Q: What is the difference between a water trampoline and a water bouncer?
A: A water trampoline and a water bouncer have a few distinct differences. Water bouncers tend to be smaller, less expensive and also do not produce as high of jumps. This is because water bouncers have netting that is attached directly to the inflation tube whereas water trampolineâs netting is attached by springs to a frame which allows for higher bouncing and can support heavier weight loads.
Q: How do you inflate a water trampoline or bounce platform?
A: The most common method for inflation is using a shop vacuum as they have a high air flow rates. The shop vac should attach to the adapter that comes with most water trampolines, water bouncers and accessories. There are also pumps available for inflation of your water trampoline of choice. We do NOT recommend using an air compressor to inflate your water trampoline as over inflation can damage the tube.
