How to Choose an Inflatable Water Slide

Slip-slidin' Away
Remember the days of taking a running start and painfully flopping your belly onto plastic sheeting hooked up to the water hose, only to slip about 5 feet from where you started? In our neighborhood, kids repeated this action until their tummies were purplish red. Today's inflatable water slides turn backyard parties into fun-packed climbing and sliding experiences. The race is on with inflatable water slides of all shapes, sizes, and price ranges: down, across, and over midway humps of single and double slides. Or travel up, around, and through Disney-, sport-, and animal-themed inflatable water slides. Can you feel the ride?

Safety First
Inflatable water slides are equipped with safety features that allow children and adults to thrash about with supportive padding and protection on all sides. Safety straps secure the ride for children, and front enclosures allow for safe landings. Look for inflatable water slides with reinforced strapping to keep stress points from tearing.

Inflatable water slides bring the beach into your back yard. Inflatable bases on today's slip-n-slide water rides guard bodies from injuries caused by sticks and stones, and protect summer clothing from mud and grass stains.

Choosing the Right Inflatable Water Slide
Check fire-retardant standards. An inflatable water slide should be easily inflated and deflated. Consider the ease with which it can be packed away at the end of the season, as well as space required for storage. Top-quality stitching will minimize repairs.

Inflatable water slides should be weighted to prevent lifting; some can be used with stakes for added security. The longer the water slide, the faster the ride, but make sure there is a buffer for impact landings. Check that the inflatable water slide you purchase is lead-free. Accessories like air pumps, deflators, tarps, hooks, stakes, and storage bags are investments you won't regret.
