A Day Out at Jump Giants Trampoline & Air Park

Ever since going out to Jump In, the children have been itching to explore more trampoline parks. There seem to be quite a few of them now that we’ve taken a look, but Jump Giants has something that other trampoline parks don’t have – an Air Park. This space is split up into two areas; the Trampoline Park and the Air Park, which require different socks, different tickets, and have different timers. There is a shared cafe area between the two, and you can book tickets for both, but we ended up going to each half on different days, to expand our adventure across two different weekends.

Jump Giants Air Park

The first half of the park we took a look at was the Jump Giants Air Park, because it is something completely new. If you are unsure what an air park is, it’s basically a giant, more sturdy bounce house. Amelia, Kai and Robin all were pumped at that description and spent a lot of the day we were going looking up YouTube videos of the venue and getting pumped. Dann and I also wanted to check out the area, and with a family ticket, you can go on as adults! We ended up getting one of those – and let me tell you – this giant place is enough to knock the energy out of any tired adult. At first, we were worried that the hour long time slot wouldn’t be enough time to play, but after ten minutes of us jumping, it was very clear we would be tired at the end of twenty minutes.

The children however were full of energy! They ran around the main part of the Air Park, which had a climbing wall, big running courses, and slides. These slides were wild – one was basically a vertical drop that scared the life out of me personally. Another was more of a slide, which Robin went up and down at least ten times. The outer ring had a long, and quite dark, course on it which the kids would race through, dodging, moving around, and trying to make their way to the edge. The rock wall was one we all tried to climb, but never got that far, and next to it was a giant, bubble-wrap looking trampoline bounce area, which Amelia thought looked like a giant popit, and seemed to love it just for that aspect.

If you have younger children, there is an inner bit to the Jump Giants Air Park, which is designed for toddlers. Robin had a look inside and checked out the mini-slide, ball pit, and the various soft areas that could be climbed on and jumped in. She, however, is a bit too big for this inner bit and found it boring fast, but it was fun to explore briefly. It’s also got it’s own entrance from the front and is completely cut off on the inside from the bigger kids, which gives a good deal of seperation.

Jump Giants Trampoline Park

The next time we attended Jump Giants, we went to the trampoline park. This park is equal in size and has so many different places to explore! There is, of course, a giant area of trampoline pads – that you can jump from, and some of them are angled if you want to do tricks or throw yourself at a wall. This main area is where the kids spent a lot of their time, jumping about. Another area had foam cubes in it, for them to jump into and throw at each other. Part of this foam area had those beams you can walk across, with a pole that you can knock other people off with. This was fun, though I did get stuck inside the pit and started to lose my shoes!

A massive area of the Jump Giants Trampoline Park has a Ninja Course, with a bunch of different areas that you can climb to, to get to the end. I did not understand how to get through this area, but Amelia and Kai loved it. Robin was too little to enter, but liked watching and going back to her trampolines. Inside the Ninja course, there were ropes to swing across, rock walls to climb up, boards to scale, and lots of foam cubes to catch you when you fall. Next to this area there was the trampoline basketball space and a dodgeball space, which brings some variety. There was also a wipe out zone inside the trampoline park, but you need to be 14 to enter this area, so none of the kids qualified. Since Robin couldn’t go to as many areas in the Trampoline side of the park, she preferred the Air Park, but the other two were pretty split and could not decide a favorite.

When it comes to Jump Giants as a whole, the biggest issue we have with the place is parking. There is never enough parking at the venue, and that makes things difficult as even the nearby parking is always full. The two sections do follow the one hour time limit and enforce them, and you do need to purchase and where different socks for each side, but an hour of play really does tire out children and adults alike, which is always a plus in a day out!
