Rectangle trampolines are becoming increasingly popular with experienced trampoline users and gymnasts according to various trampoline reviews. People choose rectangular shaped trampolines because they want to jump higher and perform more tricks, such as somersaults. Because of this they are usually chosen by an older user, who is more experienced in trampolining and the various jumps and sequences you can do on them. Rectangular trampolines are suitable for the whole family and offer a fun way for everyone to get some cardiovascular exercise – it is assumed that around 15 minutes of bouncing on a trampoline is the equivalent to jogging for 30 minutes, double the amount of time and it will impact the joints and bones of the body less than jogging or other exercise.

Rectangle Trampolines are More Sturdy

Due to the fact that rectangular trampolines are built with a smaller area based on the diameter, they usually end up having a larger perimeter. This means that they have less area and more perimeter per leg or support point. This makes the trampoline sturdier. Rectangular trampolines are the least likely to tip or wobble than circular trampolines or trampolines that are in a hexagon or octagon shape.

Rectangle Trampolines are Better for Smaller Areas

Rectangle trampolines are smaller in area for the same size diameter of trampoline than circular or hexagonal trampolines, which are equally as wide in any direction. A rectangular trampoline, on the other hand, will be longer than it is wide. This means that these trampolines are more likely to fit in a yard or garden area much like a mini trampoline. As well as this, gardens are not usually circular in shape, and even less of them are likely to be octagonal in shape. Therefore a rectangle trampoline will allow the trampoline to be streamlined in the garden and to fit in an existing area without a large amount of space being wasted due to the odd shape.
