Could anyone tell me if the new tramp have better clips on them. On the older one the plastic clips use to break.

Thanks

I don't have any experience with the old clips, but the ones on my 2015 seem to be just fine. At least they can hold my fat butt at 240lbs.

If you replace any clips, only buy the new ones, they work on both old and new tramps.
I typically break a couple clips a year, and will be replacing them as needed (as instructed by my very clever dealer), in 3-4 yrs I'll have all new clips (both old and new are the same price).
Actually I am planning on putting the new clips in every other clip position to start out (also recommended by the clever dealer), Once a few are in place, I don't expect any more breakages.

Problem solved. (thank you Hobie)

No, the sizes are different between the AI and TI up until 2015.
