Trampolines in low gravity

If all other things are equal, would a trampoline jumper achieve a different height in lower gravity? I.e a Moon base with full atmospheric pressure and a very high ceiling vs a similar setup on Earth.

The trampoline is just a spring and just returns any energy put into it. So the question is really, "Can people jump higher when there is lower gravity?" The answer is definitely yes. With less gravity, the gravitational acceleration is lower. That means with a given initial velocity upwards, it takes longer to decelerate you to zero speed at the top of your trajectory and than bring you back down. So you can definitely jump higher on the moon. You can see this easily if you ever watch any of the Apollo moon videos. Depending on the gravitational field of a given body, there is a given escape velocity, which is the initial speed you have to start with to never fall back down. The weaker the gravity, the lower the escape velocity. In other words, the lower gravity, the higher you can jump, progressing towards the limit of an infinitely high jump when you exceed the escape velocity (because the gravity is so weak).
