The 16’ Lightweight Sunburst Slide is a vibrant, high-energy addition to any event rental inventory. Its bold palette of green, yellow, and orange radiates sunny energy that draws kids and families in from across the venue. Inflating to a commanding 25 ft L × 9 ft W × 16 ft H, it delivers genuine slide excitement while remaining portable enough at 160 lbs to move with a small crew and a standard trailer. What sets this unit apart from basic residential slides is its construction: 15oz commercial PVC vinyl on all bouncing surfaces, bottoms, and high-stress zones — matched with 7oz lightweight PVC vinyl on the upper panels, windows, and pillars for an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. Double and quadruple stitching with multiple layers of vinyl at all stress points gives this semi-commercial slide durability well beyond what typical residential inflatables offer, at a price point that makes sense for operators entering or expanding in the rental market. Rated for both indoor and outdoor use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the inflated dimensions of the 16’ Sunburst Slide?
The unit inflates to 25 ft L × 9 ft W × 16 ft H. Plan for a setup footprint of at least 28 ft × 12 ft to allow anchoring clearance and a safe participant buffer zone on all sides.
Can this slide be used indoors?
Yes. The 16’ Sunburst Slide is rated for both indoor and outdoor use. For indoor deployment, ensure your venue has at least 18 ft of clear ceiling height to allow safe rider clearance and unit integrity at full inflation.
Is this a wet slide or a dry slide?
This is a dry slide only. It is not designed or rated for water use. Adding water to this unit may void the warranty and create safety hazards. For water slide options, see Beyond Tent’s water slide collection.
Does this unit include a blower?
Yes. A continuous-duty blower is included with every unit, keeping the slide fully pressurized throughout your event.
How long does setup take?
Inflation typically takes 5–8 minutes. Full setup including anchoring and safety checks runs approximately 15–20 minutes. LTL freight delivery means the unit arrives palletized or crated — factor in unboxing time for first-use setups.
What warranty does the Sunburst Slide carry?
The 16’ Sunburst Slide carries a 30-day limited warranty from date of purchase, covering defects on all jumpers, slides, and semi-commercial inflatables. This shorter warranty period reflects its semi-commercial classification.
How is this slide different from a standard residential inflatable?
The Sunburst Slide uses 15oz commercial PVC vinyl on all high-stress areas — the same material grade used in professional rental-grade inflatables — while using 7oz PVC on upper panels to keep the weight manageable. Double and quadruple stitching at stress points, combined with multiple vinyl layers, gives it substantially longer lifespan than typical residential units sold in big-box stores.
What materials is this slide constructed from?
The bouncing areas, bottoms, and high-stress zones use 15oz commercial PVC vinyl. The top sections, windows, and pillars use 7oz lightweight PVC vinyl. All stress points feature multiple layers of vinyl reinforcement with double and quadruple stitching.
How many riders can use the slide at once?
One rider at a time. Ensure riders wait at the bottom until the slide is fully clear before the next participant begins climbing.
How is this unit shipped?
The 16’ Sunburst Slide ships via LTL Freight due to its size. Delivery typically takes 7 to 10 business days. You will be contacted to schedule a delivery appointment. Ensure you have space for a freight truck and equipment to move the pallet if needed.
How should I store this slide between events?
Fully deflate the unit, ensure it is completely clean and dry, then roll and fold it for storage. Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, sharp objects, and extreme temperatures to maximize product life.
Is the Sunburst Slide suitable for events with older children?
Yes. At 16 ft tall, the Sunburst Slide is well-suited for older children and pre-teens who find shorter slides too tame. The longer, faster ride makes it a standout attraction at carnivals, school events, and community festivals where you want to appeal to a broader age range.
