BOUNCE - The harder you fall the higher you bounce

This Sat I went to experience something new in Hong Kong, a free jumping revolution just opened 3 weeks ago (15 July 2015)! BOUNCE Inc is an urban playground housed with more than 80 interconnected trampolines. It is originated from the Kangaroo land and now you can Jump for Joy in the Pearl of the Orient too.

這週末去體驗了一下BOUNCE Inc,這個超好玩的運動形式來源於袋鼠之國澳大利亞,在香港開業只有三個禮拜，擁有多達80個互相連接的彈床，是朋友聚會和週末運動消遣的好去處。

BOUNCE consists of 5 areas and each has unique characteristics.

以下為BOUNCE五大區域的介紹，各有特色。

 1. Free Jumping arena: Bounce’s main stage. Big open space consisting of interconnected trampolines, series of tumble tracks, and angled banked walls. It is said that trampoline can burn up to 1000 calories in 1 hr.

Bounce 的主要活動場地。這個寬敞的空間由許多互相連接的彈床與翻躍跑道和傾斜彈床合併而成,，可隨你喜歡在彈床之間跳躍或在轉角位反彈。據說跳彈床可以在一小時內燃燒1000卡路里。

2. The Big Bag: Jumping high and landing soft and safe. You can jump, twist, somersault on the air and land on the big soft bag. Recommendation from the staff is to do a synchronize jump with friends. You jump I jump. 

不管你的技術如何,這裡是體驗極限跳躍和練習各種花式動作的最佳地點， 充氣袋提供一個巨型而柔軟的落腳點，你可以放心在空中翻筋斗。 如果與朋友相約同去,可以在員工的指導下進行同步跳躍。

3. The Dodgeball court: The friendly staff (the guy with red top) joined us and he's too good at dodging! Hahaha... 

終極閃避球，在彈床的幫助下你的身體會變的更加靈活，穿紅色上衣的員工好厲害，怎麼都打不到他 ，哈哈!

4. Slam Dunk: Now I can dunk! Call me Jenny Jordan! 我終於可以灌籃了! 請叫我珍妮佐敦!

5. The Wall/ Performance Trampoline: Bounce & run up the wall coming out of the high-rebound performance trampoline. A 4x7 meter monster platform provides extra height and bounce. You can advance your skills on the super tramp. 

A tuckshop by Classified is outside the trampoline park for your convenience. Enjoy some salad, sandwich or snacks, or have a coffee break at the balcony to enjoy a bird-eye view of the stadium. 

在The Wall你可以一嘗飛簷走壁。這塊4x7的彈床擁有極高的回彈力， 可在這裡挑戰極限，嘗試更多的高難度動作。

如果累了，彈床區域旁邊就有一家小食店,可以買到沙拉，三文治和零食。 二樓的陽臺區域也是休息的好地方，一邊喝飲料一邊欣賞樓下眾人精彩的彈跳動作。

A pair of true grip socks is necessary during your whole bouncy journey. The brightly coloured grip socks provide better gripping which maximize safety and general hygiene. You can purchase them (20HKD) at the counter.

The courts are divided with safety nets and there's always a staff close by to keep you safe and making sure only 1 person per trampoline. Lockers are provided.

這雙防滑襪的設計是為了幫助增強抓力，提高安全性和保持個人衛生，全程都要穿著啊。你可在櫃枱買到真正的防滑襪 (20HKD)。不同的區域都被不同的安全網隔開，總是會有員工時刻注意著你的一舉一動，保證運動的安全並給予相應的活動指導和建議。場外提供儲物櫃。

After an hour of jumping, running, falling and laughing, we were all exhausted and in a sweat. No doubt trampoline is one of the best and most effective exercises. Rebound exercise is a low-impact workout that improves muscle tones and coordination.

It is a good place for not only practising your aerial moves for sports such as snowboarding & parkour, I would also recommend BOUNCE for ice breaking & team building purpose.
One of the friend I bought with me was a friend that I have not seen for 10 years and there was no awkward moment, I am so glad we came to Bounce instead of some random cafe to chitchat.

在一小時的跳躍，狂奔和大笑之後，我們雖然滿頭大汗並且非常疲倦，但是彈床給我們帶來的能量和壓力釋放是相當不錯的，是十分值得推薦的一項運動，不同的肌肉群和協調能力都得以提高。

Bounce為滑雪或者跑酷愛好者提供非常不錯的動作訓練和調整機會。除此之外，這裡也很適合進行破冰活動或團隊建設。 這次跟我同去的一個朋友與我10年沒有見面了，在娛樂的過程中我們卻絲毫沒有任何尷尬， 這裡比在一般的咖啡館見老朋友好太多了。這是其中一次最開心的朋友聚會，謝謝Bounce讓我們有這麼特別的一次體驗。
