Sky Jumper – Caroline Krusig

How Sky Jumper works

With this ride, your own movement shapes the experience. You stand on a trampoline and wear a safety harness connected to elastic cords. The combination of jumping power and tension from the cords allows for especially high jumps. The cords then guide your body back towards the centre of the trampoline. This makes the attraction quite different from a traditional carousel, where riders experience the movement mostly passively.

The operator says there are two bungee cords per jumping station. They help you move and are designed to let you return to the trampoline in a controlled way. If you feel confident, you can even try front or back flips, according to the operator. But you don't have to do a flip: simple high jumps are part of the experience too. One of the most impressive moments is the brief pause at the highest point before you come back down.

What makes the jumping experience special

Compared with a roller coaster, Sky Jumper is a very personal experience: each participant starts the jumping movement themselves. The four jumping stations also allow several guests to take part at the same time. If you'd rather watch, you can follow the jumps from the side and see the different styles. This combination of taking part and watching makes the installation a special attraction among the traditional rides.

Sky Jumper with showman Krusig

The installation is presented as a dedicated attraction on the official Krusig family website. Willy Krusig is listed there as the contact. The City of Karlsruhe includes the bungee trampoline in its list for the Herbstmess’ 2026 under Caroline Krusig. Sky Jumper was already listed with Caroline Krusig in official Mess’-Spaß-Coupons from the spring 2025. This means the ride has been part of Karlsruhe's funfair offering across several editions.

The installation also makes a visual impression. The operator describes its lighting as energy-efficient RGB LED technology, which can produce different colours. This means the ride can attract attention on the fairground not only with its jumps, but also with its lighting.

Who is bungee jumping suitable for?

Sky Jumper appeals to active visitors who would rather jump themselves than be moved by a ride motor. Children often find the unusual feeling of jumping with assistance especially exciting. Older guests may also enjoy experiencing how high they can jump. The safety and weight limits displayed at the ride, as well as staff instructions, must be followed.

If you’re jumping on a setup like this for the first time, you can start with small movements and get used to the support provided by the ropes. The speed and intensity depend largely on your own effort. You can find more active attractions in the attractions overview.
