previous evolutions of this design have been sold by them. All
failed to endure in the real world when released to the public. |

parts often fit ReboundAIR®

Some parts are not easily serviceable by the user.
Others cannot be replaced and require the entire unit be retired. |

Some |
1) The Quarter folding rebounder design has several
serious flaws which cannot be overcome by fancy engineering or trendy materials.
In the interest of consumer safety, Needak does not produce a Quarter fold
rebounder.
2) Taken
from ReboundAIR®
marketing materials July, 2003. Correspondence by an independent surveyor
regarding clarification of details and specifications of ReboundAIR®
rebounders and their programs remains unanswered.
