It's only gotta be one of those fitness tramp thingies. You don't even have to put your beer down. [/QUOTE]LOL, as foamy as beer is, I'd think jumping up and down with one on a tramp would be dangerous. I mean the beer would slosh out onto the tramp surface, then slippage would ensue. Although it could be cool, you could really launch yourself LOL. Yeeehawww!
I love trampolines. And as a kid I loved those blown up tents that you could go inside and just jump anyway you want cause it's all air cushioned. You do gotta watch it though with the full sized trampolines, their metal framework that surrounds. I will never forget when I was 10 I was at some cheap ass camp my parents sent me to (and believe me, it was cheap LOL) and they let us take turns on the big trampoline. Well I ended up being last to get on it, and I jumped about, and then the counselor said we were going to move on to trail walking, and she just started walking down the path and everyone followed her. Me, I'm still on the tramp, sitting on it, and so I go to get off of it, and I dunno what happened, but I ended up with my right leg, bent, caught inbetween the metal grillage that surrounded the trampoline. My head was near the ground and my leg was caught in the space and wow I'm surprised I didn't break a major bone in that ridiculous position I found myself in. And I could not at that angle lift myself up using my legs. I cried out several times but nobody came, everyone was well down the trail by then. THANKS GUYS! Blah that's why I hate "camp" -- too many strangers and it's not always a bonding moment with everyone LOL. Anyways, eventually I used my arms and hands and was able to right myself above the grill and get off, and hobble towards the group. AND, to top it off, as a good ender (LOL God has many ways to humble us LOL) on my way to catching up my left flipflop decided to fall apart, one side of the strap came unglued so I really had to do some major toe grippage to keep the bastaid on my foot. Eventually I just took them off and barefooted it LOL, rocks, sticks and all.
Always prepare to be on your own in any situation in life. -- (LadyZ's words of wisdom for the day LOL) --
