Naked Trampoline Thrillseeker Dodges Jail
0 Comments | Posted by Daniel Coysh in trampoline fitness
A Scottish man who police caught having a late night nudist session on his trampoline ducked a jail sentence this week at Falkirk Sheriff Court.
A startled neighbour spotted 55-year-old James Burden on 25 March at 5am in his back garden. The court heard that he had his “manhood” in one hand and a cigarette in the other during his unusual trampolining session.
Police were called and he was arrested on a charge of shameless indecency.
When asked why he was out there, Mr Burden told arresting officers that he had done it “just for the thrill of it.”
He insisted that he had not intended to make an exhibition of himself and only looked at his neighbour’s window when the light went on.
Mr Burden pleaded guilty to a single charge of publicly exposing himself “in a shameless and indecent manner,” and approaching his neighbour’s house and placing the occupant in a state of fear and alarm
Defence counsel Gordon Addison said that his client “only pled guilty to avoid the embarrassment of a trial.”
However, presiding Sheriff Caldwell placed Mr Burden on the sex offenders register, gave him three years probation and warned him that he could be “removed from the community” if he did not comply fully with all the terms of the probation order.
At the court appearance on Thursday, Sheriff William Gallacher put Burden on probation for a period of three years, and warned if he did not comply with the order, he may be “removed from the community.”
The sheriff said: “I have read the reports and you will be provided with the support that you need, and it is essential the community is not faced with this sort of behaviour again.”
The best way to look after your trampolines in the Snow.
Well this Christmas has seen one of the biggest downfalls of snow in recent years. Trampolines across the UK have been covered in layers of snow one thing that came to my attention was the need to provide advice on helping to keep the trampolines in good condition. You see when snow falls in large amounts of thickness it is very heavy and this weight will be no good to cold springs.
The best and safests way is to keep the trampoline at home or in the garage until March when the sun begins to appear and the temperatures begin to lift. You see the ice is also very dangerous for the trampolines.

The options go from the jumpking, telstar, octajump, plum trampolines and many more. So first tip is choose your brand and stick to it.
Second is get a trampoline that already has a safety enclosure. Many trampoline buyers that get a trampoline without netting call back in a few months time when they realise they need the netting for safety.
Third is the size of the trampoline consider 14ft , 12ft and 10ft trampolines can be cvery large in small gardens plus 8ft trampolines can seem too small in large gardens so consider your own personal circumstance. Also the amount of people that will be using the trampoline including there age and dare I say it there weight. The more expensive a trampoline 9 times out of 10 the larger weight it can take. This is because it has thicker padding, netting and stronger springs.
Take care looking for your trampoline but also remember in trying to find the cheapest in your range trampoline manufactures provide a strict RRP for sellers online so if a trampoline is £299 it is because the manufactures says so to stop any unfair price wars online.

Can I take my Trampoline Down In Winter ?

One of the questions we are asked on a regular basis is when we are not using the trampoline just how easy is it to take it down and store it in a garage or shed. It is very straight forward basically just follow the instructions backwards but take care removing the netting as this is one thing that normally gets damaged before anything else.
Another question was will having my trampoline over the grass kill it. Well by preventing sunlight on the lawn then yes you will what we suggest is to move the trampoline around every couple of days if you will be leaving it on the lawn.
We have used this technique with the jumpking jumpod classic trampolines.
