Trampolining is more than just fun — it’s a great way to stay active, build coordination, and spend quality time outdoors. Whether you're looking for a trampoline for your children, a fitness routine, or weekend family fun, choosing the right model can make all the difference in terms of safety, performance, and longevity.
At Cornilleau, we offer a range of high-quality trampolines designed for different uses and garden sizes. In this guide, we’ll help you choose the best Cornilleau trampoline to match your space, goals, and family needs.
What Is a Trampoline?
A trampoline is a circular metal frame with a flexible bounce mat, supported by springs or elastic bands, and usually surrounded by a safety net and protective padding. While simple in design, modern trampolines vary widely in performance and safety — and that’s where Cornilleau’s engineering and innovation truly stand out.
Choosing the Right Type of Trampoline
Cornilleau offers two main categories of family trampolines: the Spring and Springless series. Each is designed with different user preferences and safety considerations in mind.
Cornilleau Spring Trampoline
- Traditional spring-based rebound system.
- Strong, dynamic bounce.
- Ideal for families with kids and teenagers.
- Sleek design with safety-first construction (springs outside of the jump area, curved poles, and secure net).

Cornilleau Springless Trampoline
- Uses a springless system with a dense mesh of elastic bands (bungee cords).
- Smooth, quiet rebound with minimal joint impact.
- Exceptional safety — no hard spring contact.
- Great for young children or those seeking gentle, low-impact exercise.

What Size Trampoline Should You Choose?
Cornilleau trampolines are available in several sizes. Here’s how to decide what fits best:
Available Sizes:
- Spring: 8 ft (244 cm), 10 ft (305 cm), 12 ft (366 cm), 14 ft (425 cm)
- Springless: 8 ft (244 cm), 10 ft (305 cm), 12 ft (366 cm)
Key Considerations:
- Garden Space: Always allow at least 2 meters (6.5 ft) of free space around the trampoline for safety.
- User Age & Weight: Larger trampolines tend to have a higher weight capacity. Be sure to choose a model that suits both kids and adults if needed.
- Use Case:
- Recreational jumping → Spring or Springless
- Low-impact fitness → Springless
- High-energy fun for older kids → Spring
