AB  - This paper discusses a novel use of vibration equipment 
to assess the safety of whether to pad or not to pad the 
vertically orientated walls within trampoline parks used 
specifically for an activity known as walk-the-walk.
The CEN/TC 136 WG 17 is currently drafting EN ISO 
23695:202x Trampoline Parks ? Safety requirements. 
The joint CEN/ISO Working Group is divided on 
whether to allow a padded or rigid vertical surface for 
the walk-the-walk activity. In general, all surfaces 
within the falling space of a forced movement device 
such as a trampoline shall be impact attenuated.
This paper presents the finding of research undertaken 
by the University of Technology Sydney to provide the 
CEN/ISO Working Group with guidance.
The walk-the-walk activity is where a trampolinist walks 
up a vertical wall using a high-performance trampoline 
to obtain sufficient vertical height and momentum.
