Default Trampolines and indo boards????

Has anybody on here bought a trampoline to practise tricks on? I'm looking in to getting one and want to know if its worth it? wheres good to get them from? does it really make a difference to your wakeboarding etc. I've seen a lot of really cheap ones online but I'm not sure if there good quality or not and supertramp are damn expensive!!!!

Im also thinking of getting an indo board. Are they any good???

Thanks for any help

Default trampoline

ya i started using a trampoline to practice on last year and it actually works. i started busting wake to wake 3's after only a couple of days of practice on the trampoline.

get some old shoes and screw them to an old skateboard then grind off the tips of the screws. i also tied a rope to my wall in my backyard to learn rope control.

check out my website if you want to, some wakeboarding clothing there.

Can you get enough air on your trampoline to land inverts????Have you got a round or rectangular trampoline and where did you get it from? I'm worried that the cheap ones online are bad quality

thanks for the help

Hey,
Tramps help a hole bunch, it helps you get used to being upside down and spot your landings.
Also if you have a bit of space dig it into the ground.
