What Are Jumpyeti Above Ground Trampolines and Why You Need One
You might be looking to buy your first trampoline, or maybe your family is looking to upgrade your worn-down trampoline with a new, fresh spring pad. No matter who you are you should consider one of JumpYeti Above Ground Trampolines.
Why Should You Choose an Above Ground Trampoline?
The first thing you must consider when choosing a new trampoline is whether you want an above ground trampoline or an in ground trampoline. This will have a significant impact on your plans because an in ground trampoline will require you to dig a hole large enough to house the trampoline.
Depending on the size of trampoline you want, a larger trampoline will require a larger hole, and the condition of your soil you could be looking at anywhere from an additional couple hundred dollars to a couple thousand dollars on top of the trampoline’s price tag in order install an in ground trampoline.
An above ground trampoline on the other hand is much simpler, and cheaper, to install. With an above ground trampoline, you only need a flat open space that is wide enough to fit your trampoline. Since the frame will hold the trampoline above the ground you do not need to spend the additional time and money figuring out how to dig a hole. Instead, your money could go towards a nicer trampoline, and your time towards perfecting your newest backflip trick.
