Below is a photo of National Trampoline Champion Matthew Breese practicing on his Backyard Pro!

​This 11 year old trampoline competitor and United States Trampoline Champion in his 10- 12 year old age group is shown above performing on his Backyard Pro Jumbo Olympic Sport Training Trampoline that his parents bought him so he could train at home as well as at his trampoline gymnastics club.

This is a young boy who is regional trampoline champion in his age group in the Knoxville TN area. (He is also an avid Chess player!) His ground level Backyard Pro is equipped with our High Performance Woven Net Bed. 

Dear Backyard Pro, 

Just a note to say that my new BACKYARD PRO trampoline is working out very nicely. It is much better than the competition, institutional trampoline I used in college. The BACKYARD PRO high performance bed has a great return. I have been keeping in good shape by jumping after work. I have developed quite a routine us­ing back yard tricks--some of which I have developed my­self. I have also found that jumping is a year round sport. Last y􀀝ar I was jumping on my BACKYARD PRO trampoline in below zero weather with just sweats, extra socks 8e gloves. 

Yours truly, 
R.M.

This All Collegiate Diving Champion trains at home on her Backyard Pro® Trampoline. See the video below showing one of her winning dives.

​Dr. Brad Smart is a former two time All-American collegiate diver. After he graduated college and formed his own very successful company and married and had a family, he had gotten away from diving. However his children wanted a trampoline and he decided to buy them a good one that they could not only play on but improve their sports performance also. He bought them a Backyard Pro® trampoline. When he saw how much fun they were having, he decided to try a few moves on the trampoline. Dr. Smart started practicing his dry board diving skills. Eventually he perfected his diving skills and started entering Masters diving meets. He became a very successful competitor and won meet after meet resulting in competing in an ever larger distance from his home. Eventually in due time Dr. Smart qualified and entered the World's Champion Masters Competition which was held in London England. In that competition he won first place and became the World Champion Masters Diver. He said that in order to win, he had to perform dives more difficult than when he competed in college as an All-American diver. Eventually he ended up buying two Backyard Pro trampolines and continues to be active in diving.

Dear Astraea: 
Our Backyard Pro Trampoline is fantastic. We bought a Backyard Pro Trampoline with a high-performance bed about five years ago because our two sons, Derek and_Steven, are springboard and platform. divers. Since that time they have used the trampoline on virtually a daily basis for training and fun. We also have purchased Dan Millman's excellent instructional video which uses the Backyard Pro Trampoline. This year, thanks in a great part to our Backyard Pro Trampoline and video I'believe, Derek became the 2000 O.S. national champion for 14 - 15 year-olds on the 10 meter platform. He also received a bronze medal at the 2000 World Championships in Calgary, Canada on the one meter springboard. 

​Sincerely,
