Picking the Perfect Trampoline Shape for Your Backyard Fun.

At BERG, we offer a variety of options including round, oval (Grand), and rectangular (Ultim) trampolines to fit different needs and spaces.

While you might already have a shape in mind, it's important to understand the unique benefits each one offers.

The shape of a trampoline affects the 'perfect jump area' — the part of the trampoline that provides the best bounce — and how much room it'll take up in your yard.

See below what the attributes are for each shape.

A TRAMPOLINE WITH A RECTANGLE SHAPE (ULTIM)

Rectangular trampolines are a game-changer for those serious about their jumping. This shape offers a bigger, better space right in the middle for you to bounce around.

Unlike round trampolines that tend to nudge you back to the center, rectangular ones let you jump freely, making every leap and trick more comfortable.

They're built tough too.

It's no wonder professionals and athletes often go for rectangular trampolines — the independent spring action means you get more control over your jumps.

So, if you're looking to step up your trampoline game, going rectangular might just be your best move.

ROUND

The round trampoline is a classic for a reason. It's the familiar, go-to shape that continues to be a hit in backyards everywhere.

When you jump on a round trampoline, the magic happens in the middle — that's your sweet spot for the highest and most comfortable jumps.

Thanks to evenly distributed spring tension, every leap gently guides you back to the center, setting you up perfectly for your next big jump.

Round trampolines have stood the test of time for delivering solid, joyful bouncing to everyone who steps on it.

OVAL TRAMPOLINE (GRAND)

An oval trampoline brings you the best of both worlds. Its standout feature? Plenty of space for freestyle bouncing.

It combines the controlled, predictable jumps of a round trampoline with the space typically found in rectangular models.

Its design naturally guides jumpers back to the safe center of the trampoline, minimizing the risk of bounces too close to the edge.

The oval trampoline is a unique hybrid that provides a controlled jumping experience that's hard to beat.

We suggest bringing your trampoline indoors for winter if possible. It beats leaving it out in the harsh elements.

If taking the whole trampoline apart seems like a hassle, at least clean and dry the safety pad and store it inside.

Don’t forget the safety net, too; it'll last much longer if stored away.

While it's tempting to enjoy a snowy bounce, for safety's sake, it's best to pause the jumping during winter.
