Round Trampoline Safety Pad Cover

The springs and steel frame are the parts of a trampoline that cause the most injuries, and a spring pad is the single component that covers both. This pad lays over the perimeter so a foot that lands short meets padding instead of a coil, which is the situation that produces most trampoline accidents at home.

The cover is water-resistant, which matters because a trampoline lives outdoors and a pad that absorbs rain will hold water, grow heavy and break down over a season. Ties secure it to the frame so wind does not lift it off. It is sized to fit round trampolines in three common diameters, so measure your frame across its widest point before ordering rather than guessing from the mat size.

It suits replacing a pad that has weathered, split or faded on an existing trampoline. A spring pad reduces the risk of contact with the frame and springs; it does not make a trampoline safe on its own. Adult supervision, one jumper at a time and a properly maintained enclosure all still apply. Fit the pad with the trampoline mat under normal tension rather than slack, and re-check the ties at the start of each season after winter weather has worked at them.
