I had a similar problem. My trampoline (on a 1977 H-16) was showing some stretch stress at the grommet points. I also am missing straps and the grommets that held the straps--worn/stetched out too. I doubled the amount of grommets across the whole tramp and am replacing the worn out ones that are the toe strap anchor points. Several of the grommets showed the beginnings of a tear along the axcess of pull. I sewed and glued a small, strong patch (from the underside) with a sewing awl, and re-grommeted the point. Grommet kits are available from Murray's Marine catalog and come with everything needed to set the rings. I have yet to put it all back together, but I think it is going to be the type of fix that will gain me a couple of years if not more...tramps are expensive! bones.
