Trampoline Donations from Vuly
Sometimes, a helping hand from a stranger can go a long way. That is why Vuly regularly supports a number of valuable causes through trampoline donations. Our most recent donations to HeartKids Australia and Variety, the official charity of the 2011 Australian Toy, Hobby and Nursery Fair were met with delight from organisation members who were able to present their charity with a brand new Vuly Trampoline.
If you’ve recently been through hardship, represent a voluntary organisation or just know of someone that needs a hand, we’d love to hear from you. To seek a charitable donation from Vuly, contact us by email with the details of your organisation, the reasons why you believe your organisation should receive a donation and the appropriate contact person.
We ask that you submit a range of photos throughout the donation process:

Trampoline Myth Busters Edition 2
Welcome to the second edition of Trampoline Myth Busters!
This week has been filled with weird and wonderful questions about trampolines.
Here are some of my favourite questions… busted.
- Wil grass grow under my trampoline?
Yes! In fact, grass tends to grow greener and faster under the trampoline as the trampoline mat still allows some sunlight through. When mowing your lawn, simple drag your trampoline out of the way.
- Is there anything I can do to make my trampoline last longer?
Consider investing in a trampoline tent, like the Vuly trampoline tent (suitable for all sized trampolines). A shady position will also help to minimise sun exposure to the components of your trampoline.
- Can I sit my trampoline or uneven ground?
Provided that the slope is not too great (less than a gradient of 20%), it is possible to level your trampoline by digging a little trench into the ground to support the uphill trampoline leg. The downhill leg base can then be supported on timber blocks. For extra security, considering investing in a Vuly anchor kit, which can be used to further secure your trampoline into the ground.
Stay tuned for the next edition of Trampoline Myth Busters!
Installation Tips
Further to the Assembly Manual provided with your trampoline, Vuly recommends the following installation tips when assembling your Vuly Trampoline.
Follow the instructions below to aid you in the speedy and efficient set up of your new trampoline.
- Avoid attaching the net hooks, then re-attaching them facing the opposite direction. There is only one hole drilled in the lower section of the lower net pole that inserts into the square joint. Ensure that the elastic part of the elastic net hooks is facing the opposite side to which the lower net pole is.
- Ensure that the ‘s’ hook is facing downward when you attach it to the buckle.
- Avoid repositioning where the net attaches to the mat. Align the hole at the base of the seam in the net with the springs that go on either side of the join that is just left of where the logo on the trampoline mat is facing. The seam should be positioned so that it is in the centre of the join.

Olympic Trampolining: London 2012
Ever wondered how tough it is to qualify for the trampoline event at the 2012 London Olympics?
Check out this excerpt from a recent article in Britain’s ‘The Telegraph’ about trampoline rules at the upcoming 2012 London Olympics and find out just how much!
Rules
Athletes, who must be a minimum of 18 years old, compete in a qualifying round that consists of both compulsory and option routines. The top eight advance to the final, which is a single, optional routine.
The compulsory routine must contain a prescribed set of skills, performed in the correct order, while optional routines must contain 10 recognised skills. There is no time limit on performing the routines.
At the end of the performance, the trampolinist should finish in an upright position with both feet on the trampoline bed.
There are nine judges during the Olympic trampolining competition. Five awards points for execution, two score the degree of difficulty and two oversee the contest. The highest and lowest execution scores are dropped and the three remaining scores are added to the single difficulty rating.
Quick facts
- Events / disciplines:
Men’s trampoline
Women’s trampoline
- Gold medals available
2
- Key issues internationally?
Chinese domination. Having won both gold medals at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, Chinese trampolinists have started to monopolise the major medals at international competitions.
Some trampoline jargon, just for your interest!
Barani: Forward somersault with a half-twist.
Randolph: Front somersault with 2.5 twists. Also known as a “Randy”.
Optionals: Moves chosen by the trampoline athlete to show off their skills, often with a high degree of difficulty.
Olympic Trampolining Dreams
A zealous supporter of trampoline sports around the world, Vuly is the proud sponsor of Ben Wilden, Australia’s top-ranked male trampolinist and Olympic trampolining competitor. With his eye set on trampolining in the 2012 London Olympics, I give you an interview between Ben and Vuly in 2010 as he talks about his journey to the top of Australian trampoline sports and beyond.
- How did your trampoline career begin?
My career actually began in my parents’ backyard in Adelaide when I was just a kid. My dad loved to show my brother and me new tricks and safety techniques. My mum had a hard time getting us off the trampoline to come to dinner! (laughs).
- When did you decide that you wanted to be an athletic [trampoline] champion, and how did you mentally prepare yourself for the challenges ahead?
It was just a path that happened. I had little goals that led to big goals, and those goals kept getting bigger and bigger. When you set those little goals and achieve them, you realise that you’re not that far off from the big ones.
- What has been your most difficult [trampoline] performance to date?
I just barely missed the cut for the finals in the Beijing Olympics [trampolining], and that was really tough for me. My first routine did go as well as I wanted to, but I had another performance. I decided I was going to do the best routine I had ever done or fall off trying! I set a personal best record that day.
Vuly wishes Ben Wilden all the best on his 2012 London Olympic trampolining journey. We know that you will do Australia, and Vuly proud!
