When i am trying tricks on my tramp i feel like my legs move around. Is there any way to keep your feet like they are in the board?

I saw this product a while back that was like Styrofoam that you could strap between your legs to keep them the same width. But it seems like a ripoff. I'd just go by some Styrofoam yourself, cut cylinders out of it and strap it to your legs.

Some people will tape shoes to a skateboard deck but that has more risk to it and you can't bounce as high.

Personally I don't mind my feet moving around. It helps on those times when I almost fall off the tramp to have full movement of my extremities.

not plain stupidity. He must be referring to either airplanes or planes as in geometry.

However, I agree with him lol....it sounds dangerous to strap your feet into something on the tramp--what if you need to land on one leg? You are fubar!

i did notice the spelling error, however i did not feel that it was an appropriate use of my time to correct it. so thank you Landon126 for doing it instead. but why would you need to land on one leg? trust me guys, when i had a trampoline i did it all the time. Mr. Green

I dunno, it just seems like binding your feet together limits your "bailout" options if you are trying difficult tricks.

I'm not sure why you'd ever need to land on 1 foot, but if you did, i bet you'd be glad you could haha. Wink

I wouldn't do it personally. If you're trying to learn something new and take a nasty fall, the tramp doesn't have the same 'give' as water. And I think it would in fact limit your 'bail out' options with the whole 'not being able to walk because there's a board on my feet' thing.
