Thats not too uncommon with projumps. Can you describe it in any more detail or possible get a video of you jumping, just to make sure everything is ok?

wel.. its been a month,... its possible but unlikely unless youve used them LOADS of times.. how often do you use them.. like 'twice a week for 2 hours a time' for example.

well.. your joint 'Could' have worn out... you may ned to investigate into it.. maybe just take a look into the top bearings (at the top of the spring) and see if you can see any wear .. also see if you can move the spring about.. like able to move it in any direction.. (side to side or up and down). do that and report back .. then i can help you further
