Trampoline sales on up

SALES of trampolines have grown by more than three times in a craze sparked by celebrities such as Madonna and Victoria Beckham, a supermarket said.

Both the full-size and smaller versions, trampettes, have seen an increase of 70% year-on-year, according to Tesco Direct.

Trampoline coach for British Gymnastics, Anne-Sonia King, who also runs a trampolining academy, said: “I would definitely recommend trampolining as it increases strength and fitness of the muscles, reduces cholesterol and helps to keep you fit.”
