Trampolines Recalled Due To Safety Risk

Washington, D.C.—The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with Skywalker Holdings LLC announced a voluntary recall of 13-foot Square Trampolines. About 60,000 trampolines distributed by Skywalker Holdings LLC, of Brigham City, Utah are being recalled.

The straps supporting the top of the trampoline’s enclosure to the poles can fail. The enclosure could drop if these straps break, posing a risk that a user could fall from the trampoline.

Skywalker Holdings has received at least 250 reports of straps breaking. No injuries have been reported.

This recall involves the Skywalker Holdings 13-foot Square Trampoline and Enclosure Combo. The unit has blue spring pads, a black net enclosure, and a jumping mat. “Skywalker Holdings” is printed on a label located under the jumping mat and on the enclosure net.

The item was sold at specialty stores and major retailers nationwide and online from January 2007 through February 2009 for between $400 and $600.

Consumers should immediately stop using the trampolines and contact Skywalker Holdings to obtain a free repair kit.
