Sailing With Wind Orientation In Mind
On the sloops where I got my basic keelboat lessons, my neck developed a crick from constantly craning back to see what the Windex on top of the mast was doing. When I straightened out my neck, my eyes would fasten on the digital readouts of the...

Indoor Trampolines And Mini Trampolines
Indoor trampolines, also known as mini-trampolines, are small
trampoline kits designed for children between 3 to 7 years old.
They are available in many sizes but most of them are portable
and smaller than regular trampolines. Average height is about 9
-11 inches off the ground and may be circular, rectangular or
square in shape.
Since many emergency room-treated injuries are related to
trampoline jumping, before letting kids use indoor trampolines
(though smaller and look more harmless), all safety precautions
should be taken. Adequate adult supervision is also imperative
for all types of trampolines if it involves kids in the
trampoline activity.
Indoor trampolines may also be used as a bouncing device by
gymnasts or stuntmen to be catapulted into the air. Professional
indoor, or Olympic style trampolines, have a webbed surface and
are generally much more expensive. They also need folding down
and are not suitable for outdoors. Other indoor trampolines may
also be used as fitness and weight loss tools.

and is designed to encourage children to exercise and keep fit.

frame and prevents children from stepping through the bungee
cord for extra safety. Costs around $100 to $135.

coordination with the assistance of a handlebar, which can be
