• The common, everyday word for trampoline is studsmatta. Trampolin is a more "in the know" term used chiefly in acrobatic contexts, especially in the sport of trampolining and among circus performers.
• Svikt is considered the more technically correct term for a diving board. Trampolin is the more common word in everyday language.
• Some native speakers might limit trampolin mostly to diving boards, though "högsta trampolinen" (the highest platform) is likely to still sound natural for a diving tower.
