Abstract
A rebounding exercise device is disclosed in which at least two rebounding surfaces are supported at an incline relative to horizontal. The low ends of the rebounding surfaces are near each other so that one can use the rebounding device by jumping from one surface to the other. In particular, the rebounding device includes a mat which is supported in a V shape by a plurality of springs about the periphery of the mat. Loops are provided along the center portion of the mat by which the center portion of the mat can be pulled down so that the V shape is approximately maintained during use.

A rebounding exercise device comprising:
- mat means;
- a plurality of springs attached about the periphery of said mat means, each spring having an outer end extending from said mat means;
- a frame to which the outer ends of said plurality of springs are attached, said frame having a low center portion and two high ends at opposite ends of said frame, such that said mat means is formed with a low center portion and two inclined portions when supported by said frame so that a person may jump back and forth on said two portions;
- and
- means attached to the low center portion of said mat means for pulling said low portion of said mat means down.
A ski rebounding device comprising:
- a first rebounding surface;
- first means for supporting said first surface at an incline relative to a horizontal plane so that said surface has a low end and a high outer end;
- a second rebounding surface;
- second means for supporting said second surface at an incline relative to horizontal so that said second surface has a low end and a high outer end, said first and second surfaces being located with the low ends of said surfaces in between the high outer ends of said surfaces means attached to the low ends of said surfaces for pulling said low ends of said surfaces down;
- and
- two members extending from said device, each member containing a rubber lined hole so that one end of a ski pole may be inserted into said hole and a handle portion of said ski pole may be held by a person while jumping on said rebounding device.
