What Is the BERG 5x5 Pro Bouncer?

The BERG 5x5 Pro Bouncer is a square performance trampoline designed for the highest possible bounce and the largest usable jumping area. Unlike smaller family trampolines, it’s built to meet the needs of both recreational families and serious trick jumpers.

Key Features at a Glance

Shape: Square, 5m x 5m.
Spring System: TwinSpring Pro – longer, more powerful springs.
Jumping Mat: AirFlow Pro mat – maximum airflow for higher jumps.
Frame: Extra-strong galvanised and powder-coated steel frame.
Padding: Thick, UV-protected safety pads for long lifespan.
Installation Options: Above ground or flatground.
Safety Net: Available with the premium DLX XL net or without (flatground only).

Why Square Matters

Most trampolines are round or rectangular. Square trampolines like the 5x5 Pro Bouncer offer unique benefits:

Massive jumping surface: The corners add extra space compared to round models of similar width.
Even bounce across the mat: Jumpers don’t get pulled toward the middle (common with round trampolines).
Perfect for groups: The square design divides naturally into zones, reducing collisions when multiple children jump (though one-at-a-time is always safest).
Freestyle appeal: Ideal for athletes practicing complex tricks, flips, and sequences.

Above Ground vs Flatground

The 5x5 Pro Bouncer is available in two installation styles:

1. Above Ground Pro Bouncer

What it is: A traditional setup with legs, raising the trampoline ~90cm off the ground.
Pros:
- Quickest installation.
- Maximum spring clearance beneath.
- Compatible with the DLX XL safety net.
Cons:
- Visually larger in the garden.
- Requires a ladder or step for younger children.

2. Flatground Pro Bouncer

What it is: Fully dug into the ground so the jumping mat sits flush with the lawn.
Pros:
- Sleek, integrated look in the garden.
- Easier access (step-free entry).
- Available with or without a safety net.
Cons:
- Requires professional excavation and proper drainage.
- More permanent installation.

Safety Net Options

Safety nets are essential for most families, especially with young children.

DLX XL Net: The tallest and strongest BERG safety net, with curved poles and reinforced structure. It’s the recommended choice for high-performance trampolines like the Pro Bouncer.
No Net (Flatground only): For advanced users who want a clean, unobstructed look. Not suitable for young children or casual family play.

Performance Features

What makes the Pro Bouncer different from Champion or Elite models is the performance package:

1. TwinSpring Pro System

Longer, more flexible springs.
Positioned in a V-shape, giving more usable jumping area.
Designed for maximum height with less effort.

2. AirFlow Pro Mat

Allows up to 150% more airflow than a standard mat.
Reduces air resistance so jumpers can reach greater heights.
Softer landings thanks to improved mat responsiveness.

3. Professional Frame

Built from galvanised, powder-coated steel.
Engineered for extreme strength to handle heavy use.
Designed to stay stable even during high-performance jumps.

4. Heavy-Duty Padding

Thicker and wider than standard BERG pads.
UV-protected for Irish weather conditions.
Provides maximum protection over springs and frame.

Who Is the 5x5 Pro Bouncer For?

The Pro Bouncer is designed for families who want the best — and for individuals who want to train seriously.

Perfect For:

Teenagers and young adults who want to practice flips, wall tricks, and gymnastic routines.
Families with multiple children who need more space.
Athletes and freerunners looking for a home training tool.
Parents who want a long-term investment that won’t be outgrown.

Maybe Too Much For:

Toddlers or very young children (a smaller Favorit or Champion may be a better choice).
Families with very small gardens — this trampoline is huge at 5m x 5m.

Real-Life Benefits

Families and jumpers who invest in the Pro Bouncer often highlight:

Longevity: Kids don’t outgrow it — it remains exciting into their teens.
Skill development: Ideal for practicing advanced skills safely.
Family fitness: Even adults can enjoy the trampoline thanks to its size and spring power.
Garden centrepiece: It becomes the hub of outdoor play and activity.
