Registration and payment took about three minutes per group, so the waiting time can add up quickly. Since it was an especially rainy day, I spotted lots of families with children bursting with energy who were yearning for some physical exercise. Obviously we came here for the same reason, haha.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the registration process, whomever wants to jump on the trampolines will receive a coloured bracelet to wear. Groups of customers are swapped based on the colour of these bracelets after a set period of time. The call indicating the hourly swap usually goes like this: \u201cAll right! Time for people with green wristbands is up!\u201d (<i>Hai! Ki-midori no risutobando no hito wa oshimai desu!<\/i>)<br \/>\nIt could be that the colour had already been changed by a few minutes, but we got to use the facility for a bit longer.<\/p>\n<p>Time we got our bracelets: 13:40<br \/>\nTime we were called off: 15:00<\/p>\n<p>In other words, we got to play for 1 hour and 20 minutes for the price of 1 hour\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/270c\" alt=\"\u270c\" data-goomoji=\"270c\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/270c\" alt=\"\u270c\" data-goomoji=\"270c\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/270c\" alt=\"\u270c\" data-goomoji=\"270c\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/>\u00a0I advise people who need lots of time to change clothes to hurry up and have more time left to play.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25a0Indoor facilities<\/h3>\n<div style=\"width: 1140px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-10061-1\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"http:\/\/evergreenhostel.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/VID_20200216_141328.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/evergreenhostel.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/VID_20200216_141328.mp4\">http:\/\/evergreenhostel.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/VID_20200216_141328.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>Some of the trampolines on one side of the building. Th-this is amazing! Even for me as an adult it looks like so much fun!<\/p>\n<p>In the Ninja Course (like in Sasuke) there\u2019s a button at the start and another one at the end, allowing you to time your way through the obstacle course. It\u2019s just like on television!<\/p>\n<p>(\u203bSASUKE = a tv-series also known outside Japan as Ninja Warrior or Wipeout, where participants clear various obstacles in a gigantic obstacle course. This highly popular programme featured several self-confident and muscular athletes.)<\/p>\n<p>You can even indulge in surfing or slam-dunking! (I\u2019ve always dreamt of doing a perfect slam dunk, haha)<br \/>\nIn the mixed area, both adults and kids can jump around freely. As the risk of accidents is a bit higher, only one person is allowed per cage.<br \/>\nEntering the kids area as a parent is a no-go: children up to 120 cm only. Although in practice, as long as you\u2019re a kid who wants to play somewhat separately from their parents, access is allowed regardless of age. Lots of children where flying through the\u00a0<span class=\"il\">air<\/span>\u00a0in places filled with sponges (sorry, I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re called), which seemed like a lot of fun.<\/p>\n<p>In the main trampoline area, adults and kids alike were nimbly spinning through the\u00a0<span class=\"il\">air<\/span>, doing all kinds of elaborate jumps. Just seeing it made me believe I could do it too, haha\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9608 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/evergreenhostel.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20200216_135002-505x1024.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_20200216_135002\" width=\"290\" height=\"827\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This kid surely does gymnastics or something.

As it should be! Taking the politeness of the staff members and all of the provided facilities into account, the price starts looking more justified.<\/p>\n<p>A nice bonus is the stimulation you\u00a0<span class=\"il\">get<\/span>\u00a0from all the sporty people around you. Like a girl sporting a TAISO NIPPON t-shirt who had clearly been doing gymnastics, or another basket-playing girl with JAPAN BASKET written on her sweatshirt. They looked so cool.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to do the activities as an adult, you should absolutely come in sportswear! I fear that if you hit the trampoline with jeans or a belt on, it\u2019ll hurt a lot. Plus, if you do sports in regular clothes, it starts to\u00a0<span class=\"il\">get<\/span>\u00a0really hot after a while. The heating is usually off in this warehouse-like hall, but I saw some kids wearing just a tank top and their clothes were soaking with sweat. In midwinter. Must be healthy though.<\/p>\n<p>With provisions like a place to put your phone and other valuable belongings, this well-maintained space has been able to prevent any accidents. Still, this is in principle a self-responsible activity, so if you go, keep it fun and enjoy the muscle pain the next day!<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s jump jump jump<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/1f4a8\" alt=\"&#x1f4a8;\" data-goomoji=\"1f4a8\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/1f4a8\" alt=\"&#x1f4a8;\" data-goomoji=\"1f4a8\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"CToWUd\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/e\/1f4a8\" alt=\"&#x1f4a8;\" data-goomoji=\"1f4a8\" data-image-whitelisted=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jump it up at\u00a0Get\u00a0Air\u00a0Trampoline Park!
