Problems with trampoline enclosure....?

just me

We have a 10' Bounce Pro trampoline with enclosure. We got it in January and my kids dad said "I'm going to really make this net tight so it looks good." Guess what happened? The first time my tiny 4 year old bounced into it it ripped. Not enough to fall through but a head size hole. Another one is starting near one of the other places where it ties to the pole and one of the ties has come away completely. I wanted to order another net and have it put on correctly (some slack) and finally found one. For ONE HUNDRED dollars! What? The entire set of trampoline and enclosure parts was $206 with TAX AND SHIPPING! Do you know where I can get a net cheaper than that? Also, those blue foam noodle things that are covering the poles - how necessary are they? One is ripping and water had stood inside it so now the pole is rusty. If I took them off and cleaned the pole with CLR really good would they rust again in the rain? I can't make the noodle things stay in place so that water won't get in.

Answer
Generally they are very expensive. I've actually never seen an enclosure for less than $200 - unless maybe someone has it on clearance.

Have you tried contacting the manufacturer and asking them about replacement parts? That's usually the best route and it pretty much guarentees you'll get the right enclosure for your specific trampoline.

I know it's alot of money but can you really put a price on your childs safety?

Wet Trampoline after rain?

Zain

I just got a Trampoline a few weeks ago, and it was sunny for like a week and a half. Then, it rained for a few days, and it was really boring to spend the time inside while the Trampoline stood all alone outside. When the Sun came out again after it had rained for several days, I started jumping on the Trampoline again, the only problem was, that water came towards me from the Blue "Metal-Protection" on the outer part of the Trampoline, almost everytime I jumped on it. I tried cleaning the Blue "Metal-Protection", because the water was coming from under of it, but I don't know from where. I also tried cleaning the springs, but the water still kept coming. After a few days later, the Water still came from the "Metal-Protection", but not as much as before. I always have a Towel near me when I jump on the Trampoline, to use it when the water drops comes again!

I have a Trampoline with Net surrounding it, and I appriciate all the help/advice in advance :)

The water is coming from different parts of the Blue Plastic, not only from one single place!
And how can the Blue Plastic have holes in it, when the Trampoline is almost new?

Answer
haha exactly the same thing happens to me!
dont worry about it man, if it is the same as my problem its just the foamey stuff inside the blue plastic has taken up the water, just like a sponge :)
if the water comes out again just go to the source and stand on the blue plastic, my guess is that its coming through a hole there :D
if u want it to stop just seal it up with some duck tape of sumit :)
hope this helps

What are some exercises you can do daily?

water trampolines parts image

Hii

I want to loose some body fat. What are exercises I can do everyday? Do I need to do warm-ups too? How often should I exercise If I want to loose 40 pounds and drop down a couple waist sizes? I drink green tea and lemmon-water everyday. I weigh 200 pounds now, 6'1. How long would it take overall and how long for a waist siZe or two? Thanks SO MUCH.

Answer
You could've told me whether you are a boy or girl but you could spice up your life by drinking ginger tea every night with lemon. also put cayenne pepper on your eggs to eat in the morning. I recommenced a brekfast of yogurt with oats in is and eggs, with bread and 2 fruits. stop eating white sugar and switch to brown sugar. Also stop eating at 6pm but the good thing is that you can eat all day long. Have a big breakfast and a small dinner. you gain weight when you eat at night because your metabolism slows down at night. Also use Epson salt as a laxative for 3 days. Dont eat any mcdonalds or chain food resturants and cook your own food.Now this is the diet part because your not going to lose weight by just excersise. Buy a rebounder( mini trampoline) and use it 10 min a day. do jumping jacks, running in place and squats for 5 min when you wake Up. also walk 1 hour.

What should I get my brothers girlfriend for Christmas?

Olivia

I know its a really long time from now, but I'm just getting ahead on the planning. My brother has been going out with his girlfriend for over two years now so she's pretty much part of the family. She is 20, he is 19. She is Jewish but she celebrated Christmas with us last year. I feel like I should actually get her something this year because she is closer with the family. She got me something for Christmas two years in a row, so I want to get her something. Any ideas what I should get for her? (I am a 16yo girl)

What is the most effective and cheapest way to keep leaves and acorns off my trampoline?

water trampolines parts image

Alex McMul

I have a trampoline but I live in the woods and I always have to clean it. I've heard of trampoline covers but do they work? Could I use a tarp? Anything else I could do?

Answer
Someone already mentioned trampoline tarps--it's a great way to keep off any sort of debris.

For already existing stuff, any kind of broom or rake will do the job just fine. A hose with good water pressure might be a good idea too if birds decide to use your trampoline for target practice--if they haven't already. You could use soap to really get it out (and I hear the slipping and sliding around is a small part of the fun), but I've also heard too much soap can damage the mat over time.

Hope I was of help! :)

How do you mow a lawn with a trampoline?

Kitkat

Ok so my dad might get me a trampoline for my birthday, but he is worried about our yard. Is there a way to mow under the trampoline without moving it? He always wants our yard to look good, and a lot of the things I've read about say you can just move it every time you mow the yard. How heavy is it to move? Any ideas that would be easy to do WITHOUT moving it?

Answer
Mow the lawn up to the trampoline then pull it onto the part already mowed and mow the rest of the lawn they slide easy and site the trampoline in different section of the lawn and will not have any bare spots but water and rain will get through just less light so better to move around different spot each time..very easy to slide to new spot each time..

How to get denim stains out of pink shorts?

carly

I went to a cook out last night, and it poured rain for part of the time. We were jumping on the trampoline, and because I was wearing my favorite, new light pink shorts I got off the trampoline, fearing they would be stained black. My other friends did not, and they also had a little water fight later and got soaked. I did not participate once again (I was also wearing a white shirt:). Later I joined my friends to watch the fireworks, and since their was no room on the bench, I just squashed onto one of my other friend's lap. Her blue jean shorts were still wet, and today my mom discovered denim blue stains all over the butt of my flawless shorts. I am obviously distraught. Do you know of any stain removers that would work to get these out? Or anything I could soak them in? Thank you!
Hmmm I googled beetroot for stains and all the results said how to REMOVE beetroot stains. I don't appreciate that.

Answer
What you have is called dye transfer, and it's very easy to fix. Just wash the pink shorts by themselves. Use regular laundry detergent and use the hottest water temperature recommended on the care tag. If you have OxiClean on hand, add a scoop or two of that as well.

This alone will fix the problem. You might have to wash the shorts twice, but a second wash is rarely needed.

You don't need to pre-treat or run out and buy toxic-smelling dye removers. Just re-washing will fix the problem.
