The Upper Bounce Trampoline Step N' Slide is designed to keep kids safe when ascending and descending the trampoline. The wide ladder rungs, heavy-duty handrail, ample-sized platform and durable plastic slide are combined into one practical, yet fun accessory. The ladder's construction features a sturdy frame wide enough for older kids. And, each rung is deep so kids' bare feet can grasp firmly. The textured grooves add another layer of protection, especially when little feet are wet and slippery.
