What makes this different to a big round trampoline?
A strong robust frame is key to supporting a good bounce on a trampoline the GeeTramp Force 10x17ft is built of strong, high-quality materials, the 10x17 foot Olympic-sized trampoline has a more powerful bounce compared to your standard outdoor trampoline, making it ideal for practicing gymnastics, cheerleading, wakeboarding and snowboarding – or simply to let the kids let off steam in a safe and controlled environment.
Kids and adults alike will love the enhanced bounce and feeling that definite “flick up” sweet spot through their toes from the engineered power curve in the frame. This is possible due to GeeTramp having long side rail pieces and not compromising on the bounce for shorter pieces to make shipping cheaper. Yes freight on these trampolines is a lot but well worth if for the long term gains of a trampoline that does deliver on bounce so that kids will actually use it.

Our rectangle trampolines now have further options of the different mat and spring combinations to better match kids with the right size and bounce that they want out of their trampoline.
Mat and Spring combination has a huge bearing on the bounce result and we have been taking feedback from athletes and hosting meetups with them to get direct honest feedback to get the mix right accross users weight and sports. For the GeeTramp Force 10x17ft you can choose from 3 bounce options -
- Standard mat and regular springs
- High bounce mat with heavy duty springs - increase bounce benefit of 10-15%
- High Bounce mat with Australian Springs - increase 20%+
The high bounce mat and spring combination cause minimal benefit to a round trampoline and definately not viable to sell for the price increase.
Unsure about which of the three bounce options you need?
High Bounce Mat and AU Springs
-
From observation it seems no matter what the users weight is, everyone does like the high bounce mat and Australian Spring combination but heavier kids can get away without "needing" it more than the lighter kids. I personally tested this again after a year of not being on it a Byron Bay Gtramp Games and was reminded how great the 10x17ft is with the High bounce and AU springs.
-
For single use tricking and lighter kids the high bounce mat and AU springs is highly recommended as it improves the bounce by around a further 15-20% giving more height to give the best chances for clearing neck and prevents fatiguing too quickly.
-
We now have the 10x17ft High Bounce with the Australian Springs back on display in Geelong Victoria and also at Homebush Sydney for all to test and I don't think there has been anyone who hasn't liked the bounce of it. It's a "winner on bounce" and you just can't help but smile when you jump.
-
The amount of time users can spend on the trampoline is greatly increased as well due to how much more responsive the springs are.
-
NOTE - this combination can be too bouncy for Cheerleaders and Gymnasts who train on a spring floor they love the bounce but typically identify that is is harder to stabilize a routine and greatly increases the risk of losing awareness on the spring floor.
High Bounce Mat and Heavy Duty Springs
- The change to the high bounce mat and fatter diameter springs, opens this trampoline up to a larger demographic of happy users giving a great bounce and height for kids in their early teens. From about 50kg compared to 75kg for the standard mat.
- The benefit for kids who train for Cheer and Gymnastics is that the mat remians firm and stable enough for tumbling and aerials etc but when they want to actively jump on their own or with siblings and friends everyone can actively bounce and enjoy a decent amount of time on the trampoline before feeling overly fatigued.
- Most cheerleaders and gymnasts choose this option as they feel the bounce is controlled and manageable so they won't lose awareness when they take their tricks and routines back to the spring floor.

A review from a happy mum - Fiona Elbrecht
We got this GeeTramp 10x17 about 1 year ago. We truly couldn’t be happier. This is an amazing quality trampoline!
Our kids 5, 8 and 11 are on it every single day. The high bounce mat and AU springs really make a lot of difference. Everyone who has come over and tried it is so surprised at how high you can bounce.
The size allows them to attempt new tricks that require more room. Pads are great and stay in place and the net and frame is super sturdy.
We would absolutely recommend this tramp. We love it!!
