Hey everyone!

Has anyone else here a rebounder? It just makes me feel soooooooooo much better and I spend hours and hours on it. To me it feels somewhat similar to swinging (which I also do A LOT). However, as I tend to jump up and down whenever I'm excited or nervous (stimming?), I wonder whether a rebounder can be seen as some kind of stimming tool? :lol:

If you have not tried it since you were little, you might want to consider it. It is good for your health and it really calms one down and releases a lot of tension. :D

A rebounder is a trampoline? Those are fun! I don't have one anymore, but I would totally be on it for hours and hours if I did. My mom doesn't like them because she doesn't want me or my brother to fall off and break our bones.

I have a small fear of bouncing off the rebounder and landing on the hard hard ground. I still love jumping on them though. And swinging too. I love swinging. I have a small fear of the swing connector thingies snapping when I'm forward up on the seat.
