Etan UltraFlat

Etan UltraFlat trampolines stand out with:

• 3 mm thick, box-shaped galvanized steel frame
• High-quality safety pad with 3 cm foam
• OptiFlow jumping mat for optimal air movement
• Strong hard-plastic Diamond System triangles
• Durable, high-quality trampoline springs
• Matching warranties

This combination ensures stability, better bounce, safety, and a longer lifespan.

The UltraFlat is perfect for enthusiastic jumpers, athletes, trainers, families who want top quality, and places where the trampoline is used often, like sports clubs or recreational facilities.

Thanks to high-quality European materials, in-house production, and a robust design, Etan UltraFlat trampolines have a very long lifespan. With normal use and following the user guidelines, they can last a lifetime! The jumping mat and safety pad usually need replacing after 5–7 years of heavy use, depending on usage and protection (e.g., weather cover).

The UltraFlat trampolines are built from high-quality European materials designed to withstand intensive and frequent use. This includes a 3 mm thick galvanized steel frame, strong safety pad, extra breathable OptiFlow jumping mat, and Diamond System triangles.

OptiFlow is a trampoline mat specially designed by Etan for maximum airflow. The open-weave structure lets air escape much faster than a standard permatron mat, resulting in smoother jumps, more control, and less resistance.

A standard trampoline mat is made of tightly woven permatron – perfect for above-ground and inground trampolines. It’s strong but less breathable than an OptiFlow mat.

OptiFlow features:

• Coarser weave, letting air escape freely
• Faster response when jumping
• Smoother landings with less “balloon effect”

In short: A standard mat is sturdy and fine for above-ground or inground trampolines. For a flat-to-the-ground trampoline or users seeking maximum jump performance, go with an OptiFlow mat.

Professional trampolines are used for intense jumping, sports training or semi-professional use. They’re built with:

• Frames made from very thick, heavy-duty steel, often box-shaped
• High-quality springs that allow higher and more controlled jumps
• A highly breathable jumping mat for maximum bounce height
• A thick safety pad with durable filling and strong finishing
• A long lifespan thanks to top-quality materials and solid construction

Yes. Digging in a trampoline takes quite some work. An inground trampoline (20 cm above ground) is easier to install than a Flat-to-the-Ground trampoline. Most of the effort goes into digging the hole and backfilling the soil. Assembling the trampoline itself usually takes 1–2 hours, depending on the type, size, and whether a safety net is included.

Some trampoline suppliers offer a trampoline dig-in service. Since they are often the supplier or even the manufacturer, they usually know the installation best – so they’re often your best bet. There are also plenty of gardeners who can handle the (digging) work for you.

Note: Installing a trampoline isn’t just digging a hole. Make sure you check how someone plans to install your trampoline. When in doubt, contact your trampoline supplier.

Costs vary depending on the size of the trampoline and ground conditions. For a professional dig-in service, prices usually range from €700 to €1,800, including digging, placing the trampoline, and finishing the edges.

To install a trampoline in the ground, you’ll need:

• An inground or flatground trampoline (not one on legs!)
• Installation instructions
• A spade or mini-excavator
• A wheelbarrow
• An earth container, trailer, or nearby space to dump the soil
• A measuring tape and string to mark the pit
• A level for flat installation
• Optional drainage if the soil is wet
• Ground cover or weed fabric to prevent weeds under the trampoline

Check beforehand for underground utilities, pipes, cables, or drains.
