Vuly Ultra 2 vs Thunder 2

This page contains affiliate links and we may earn a commission on purchases.

The Ultra 2 uses coil springs around the edge of the mat, covered by padding. The Thunder 2 uses leaf springs mounted away from the jumping area, so there is no exposed steel spring beside the jumper. Both meet the Australian Trampoline Standard AS 4989:2015 and both are round.

The Thunder 2 also carries a longer frame warranty at 10 years against 5, a higher weight rating at 140 to 150 kg against 120 to 130 kg, and an XXL size that is larger than anything in the Ultra 2 range. The Ultra 2 costs several hundred dollars less and offers a smaller S size for tighter yards.
