Rules and Safety
overview
Here at the iJUMP trampoline arena, your safety is our number one priority (as well as ensuring you are all having fun of course!). Jumping on trampolines is potentially a dangerous activity and is categorised as an extreme sport. As such, it is of utmost importance that all jumpers understand the risks and follow the set rules, safety guidelines and also jump within their own ability.
Our rules and guidelines are designed to minimise risk of injury to both yourself and others. Our staff is always present to ensure all our rules are adhered to and are always available to discuss any concerns you may have.
We accept no responsibility for any injuries that occur as a consequence of using our equipment, therefore, it is recommended that all of our guests read our guidelines below to ensure that together we can minimise the occurrence of injury.
We have designed a highly robust arena structure here at iJUMP and regular inspections are conducted by us to ensure that all the equipment is safe and secure. We train our staff to the highest standards and to ensure your safety we have a scheduled maintenance programme with trained staff performing both daily and weekly checks on all equipment.
Waiver Forms
We require that all jumpers over the age of 18 years complete a waiver form before entering the iJUMP arena (a parent/guardian must complete a waiver form for any jumper under the age of 18 years). Please note that you may be asked to provide valid photo ID on entry. Waivers must be filled out completely and correctly with all information required in order for them to be valid and allow access to the iJUMP Trampoline Arena.
THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS: (NO WAIVER = NO JUMPING!)
If you need assistance in completing the waiver for any reason, a member of our staff will always be on hand and eager to assist!
