Skywalker vs Springfree

Springfree logo

The decision here is springs or no springs, across a wide price gap.

Skywalker uses metal coil springs with padding over the edge, the standard backyard setup. Springfree replaces springs with flexible rods below the mat and tucks the frame out of reach, removing one way a child can hit hard metal, and it costs considerably more.

Choose Skywalker if you want an affordable first backyard trampoline. Choose Springfree if you're set on the springless design and plan to keep it for years.
