What do you mean, Matt? All trampolines eventually deteriorate and need to be replaced. They sure don't last forever. We have had to replace at least three Wave tramps -- if we didn't, somebody would fall through. Most get worn spots that eventually tear open. And one of ours the bead that threads into the side track came apart, so there is a long section that is not in the track any more.

I don't think it is necessarily because one trampoline is better than another -- just that wear and tear and sun and sea will eventually take their toll.
