    Ankle, knee, and lower-leg injury from repeated impact and rotation

    Attempting flips, twists, or tricks beyond the participant's ability

    Collisions with other jumpers, padding, frames, springs, and walls

    Neck and spinal injury, including permanent paralysis

    Serious bodily injury, permanent disability, paralysis, and death

    I have read this list, I understand it, and I knowingly and voluntarily accept every one of these risks, including risks that may arise from the negligence of others or that are not specifically listed above.

    Court monitor instructions must be followed immediately

    I understand that failing to follow the rules may result in my removal from the activity without a refund.

    I confirm that I am not under the influence of alcohol, cannabis, illegal drugs, or any medication that impairs judgment, coordination, or reaction time, and I will not become so during the activity.

    How to use this trampoline park waiver

    Trampoline parks carry a genuinely elevated injury profile, and insurers know it. Your waiver is read more carefully here than in almost any other vertical, and vague risk language is the fastest way to lose a claim.

    The specific hazards to name are double bouncing, landing awkwardly in a foam pit or on an airbag, and collisions at the intersections between attractions. Those account for the bulk of real trampoline park injuries and a court will expect a participant to have been told about them by name.

    Most parks also enforce court rules through signage and court monitors. Referencing those rules inside the waiver ties the two together, so a rule violation becomes a documented breach of the agreement rather than a staff judgement call.

    Before you use it

    • Name double bouncing and foam pit landings explicitly — generic risk wording is weak here.
    • Tie the waiver to your posted court rules so a violation is a breach of the agreement.
    • Separate jump sessions by age or size where you can, and say so in the form.
