Giant trampoline park opens in US
16/09/2010 Trampoline fans looking for their ideal holiday destination might want to head to San Francisco, where a long-awaited trampoline park has just opened.
Located in a disused airport hangar in Presidio, the new facility is open for children's parties, winter sports athletes looking to train in the offseason and families generally wanting to have some fun, the San Francisco Examiner reports.
Dave Schaeffer and Paul McGeehan, both winter sports fans themselves, are the creators of the new facility. Features at the House of Air attraction include the Matrix, which is made of 42 trampolines, and the Colosseum, which consists of 22 trampolines used for organised sports.
Mr Schaeffer said that the facility is really set apart from other similar projects as people can get training while they bounce.
"You can't get instruction from other trampoline parks," he explained.
What's more, while visitors are jumping on the trampolines, they will also be receiving a great workout.
Writing for the Daily Mail, Claire Bates explained that trampoline exercise helps improve both flexibility and balance.
