The Beyond Tent 18' Lightweight Rainbow Slide with Detachable Pool delivers the colorful excitement your clients demand in a 240 lb package that one operator can load, transport, and set up solo. At 28 ft L × 11.6 ft W × 18 ft H, this single-lane water slide provides a towering climb height with vibrant rainbow panels and a refreshing detachable splash pool — designed for rental operators who want proven summer ROI at an accessible price point. Inflate in under 5 minutes, stake 16 points, and you're open for business.
Why Rental Operators Choose This Slide
Built from a knife-coated 9 oz & 15 oz ripstop PVC vinyl blend — 1000×1000 denier mesh with PVC coating — this slide resists UV fade, surface abrasion, and sand infiltration that shortens inflatable life. Stress points are double-layered; seams are double and quadruple stitched then heat-welded. Finger-safe safety netting, a ramp-style entrance, and 16-point stake tie-down satisfy safety requirements at schools, parks, and HOA events. The detachable splash pool sets up in minutes, and back-flow flap deflation zippers with velcro covers mean fast pack-down so you can turn to the next booking without delay.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the exact inflated dimensions?
The 18' Lightweight Rainbow Slide inflates to 28 ft long × 11.6 ft wide × 18 ft tall. Allow 3–5 ft of clearance on all sides for staking and rider flow.
How many riders can use it at once?
This is a single-lane slide rated for 1 rider at a time. Maximum rider weight is 120 lbs and height is 5 feet. Riders must queue and wait for the previous rider to exit the splash pool before descending.
Does the splash pool come with the slide?
Yes — the detachable splash pool is included. It attaches to the slide base and installs or removes in minutes, making transitions between wet use and storage fast and easy.
What blower is included and what power does it need?
One 1.0HP electric blower is included. It requires a standard 110V/15-amp outlet. For remote setups without grid power, use a generator rated at minimum 1,500W.
How long does full setup take?
Most operators complete full setup — unpack, lay out, stake, inflate, and attach the pool — in 15–20 minutes. A two-person crew is recommended for transport and staking the 240 lb unit.
Is this slide safe for school and municipal events?
Yes. It is ASTM & CPSIA compliant, fire-retardant, and lead-free. Finger-safe netting, a ramp entrance, sewn-in warning signs, and 16-point anchoring satisfy requirements at schools, parks, and city events.
What material is this slide made from?
A commercial-grade 9 oz & 15 oz knife-coated ripstop PVC vinyl blend — 1000×1000 denier mesh with PVC coating. Stress points are double-layered; seams are double and quadruple stitched then heat-welded to seal out sand and dirt.
What is the difference between lightweight and full commercial inflatables?
Lightweight units use a 9 oz + 15 oz vinyl blend vs. heavier 18 oz single-layer commercial vinyl. They weigh less (240 lbs), cost less, and are easier to transport — ideal for operators running multiple events per day or building a starter fleet. Full commercial units carry higher weight limits and heavier seam construction for high-frequency venues.
How many anchors are required and are they included?
16 stake anchors are required and included. Tie-down strips are also included. Always stake all 16 points — never operate without full anchoring on grass, sand, or soft ground.
Can this slide be used on a slope?
Inflatables must be set up on flat, level ground. A slope exceeding 1–2 degrees can cause the unit to shift during operation. Level your setup area before staking, and confirm all 16 anchor points are fully seated.
What warranty does this product carry?
The 18' Lightweight Rainbow Slide carries a 90-day limited warranty covering seam tears, fabric openings, and manufacturing defects. Beyond Tent covers repair costs; the customer pays return shipping. Normal wear, zipper damage, and misuse are not covered.
How is the slide shipped and what is the estimated delivery time?
This unit ships via LTL Freight. Delivery typically takes 7 to 10 business days from the ship date. The freight carrier will contact you to schedule a delivery appointment. Ensure you have space and personnel to receive a pallet delivery.
California Prop 65 Warning: This product can expose you to chemicals including Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information visit www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
