I've been using string bed trampolines for a really long time (I have very limited exposure to a web bed) so I'm just really interested. Are Aussie beds considered more powerful than other brands of string beds (like my favorite bed by Dave Ross).

About the open gym, I personally would not let non-students use the Aussie bed trampoline. It's too tempting for people to start goofing off and flying off the trampoline - just my opinion though.
I have no experience on a Ross bed. I would guess that most string beds are similar. The Ross bed is more expensive than the aussie bed. Dave Ross (reboundproducts.com) has a great reputation...I'm sure all of his equipment is top notch.

We have the yellow and red tramp at our gym and we always have a coach right there when anyone is using it. The optionals are allowed to use it with someone watching from a distance and everyone knows the rules. In open gym, there is a coach stationed there, that tends to be the most used piece of equipment. It is so much fun but you have to watch 'cause people like to break the rules.
