QC#48 – Super Tramp

Put new life into your old trampoline with some pool noodles. They add padding to your springs, kids think it’s fun, and they help protect the springs from the elements as well.

WARNING: The UV rays from sunlight will bleach the color out of most pool noodles over a period of about 3 months. The foam will also become brittle and start to crumble a few months after that. While this is a fun idea, it’s not meant to be a long-term solution. Use of video content is at your own risk.

Project History & More Info:

When I set this up, my kids couldn’t resist getting on the tramp right away and jumping with huge smiles on their faces. It really did bring new life back into our old trampoline!

If your trampoline is an eye sore, and the uncovered springs are an accident just waiting to happen, why not fix both problems at once with some cheap pool noodles. Simply cut sections a little longer than the springs, then push the them through the holes in the centers so they make a nice snug fit.

Hook the ends of the springs back onto the tramp, and repeat the process with the others. If you alternate the colors, you’ll end up with a custom pattern that will give a new life to your old tramp. Super tramp!
