At Rebound Products, our string beds—engineered by Dave Ross, a successful Olympic Level coach—offer a solution that’s both high-performance and cost-efficient, meeting FIG specifications.

Why Do String Beds Last Longer?
There is no sewing. On a string bed the weave and the paint hold the strings in place, but allow movement if need be. On a webbed bed the stitching rips at the material. Think of the arm pits of a T shirt. Stitching creates a wear point.
Our beds are meticulously engineered using proprietary two-string construction, designed for optimal stability and powerful bounce throughout their life. While webbed beds typically deteriorate after 1.5–3 years, Rebound string beds have demonstrated over a decade of resilience and consistent performance—typically outlasting webbed beds by 7 times.
Additional Benefits for Clubs and Athletes
- Consistent Performance: The bounce remains predictable year after year, ensuring safer training and better progress for athletes.
- Lower Maintenance Costs: With less frequent replacements, facilities can focus budgets elsewhere without sacrificing quality.
- Customization: Rebound string beds are tailored to match each application—whether for double minis, power tracks, or differnet trampoline sizes—so you perfectly tuned bounce.
