Hey. Im assuming that trampoline springs start to loosen up a lot after you've had them for a while. Does anyone know if you can buy a set of new springs just by themselves? And does anyone know if you can get special ones that create extra bounce? Thanks.

i believe you can but if you replace springs you may need to get a new mat if the springs are a different size. also they are pretty expensive. and yes they do loosen up.

I have gotton springs off ebay new I guess if you want you could get a inch shorter spring and it would make your mat tighter I'm not sure if that would help

Yea. Crossing your springs does help. I did it every 1 or 2 and I got a lot higher that I used to.

Does your mat ever dry out? I assume by the time your spring loosen up the mats probably pretty worn. It might be cheaper to just buy a new tramp...

Yah I crossed over every set of springs into an x. Made a world of difference its got brand new feel to it again.

Anyone jump on one of the cloth spring trampolines, those things are awesome! Forces you to spin faster and push harder with your quads.

I like them, thats the next toy I am gonna replace is my trampoline with one of those. It forces your rotation to be faster and more realistic like behind the boat. Doesnt give you the ton of time in the air like a spring trampoline.

not as fun at all. I like gymnastics square trampolines. They're more dangerous, but I can grab the 25 foot celing support thing. THATS FUN!
