David Ross is a Canadian trampolining coach and manufacturer of trampolines and trampoline equipment. Ross is probably the person most responsible for Canadian trampolinists becoming competitive on the international scene.
As a physics student at Queen's University, Canada, David Ross became interested in competitive trampolining. He finished 2nd in his first Canadian National Trampoline Championship in 1972. He also became interested in manufacturing high performance trampolines and spent years in researching the design and construction of woven trampoline beds. Ross beds, made by hand weaving, are now used in many competitions around the world. He has also produced custom trampolines for Cirque du soleil and other shows.
He opened the first custom built Canadian trampolining facility in 1990. It is located in Richmond Hill, north of Toronto, Ontario where many Canadian National Team athletes train. Ross has been the Canadian National Team coach for a number of years.
