The 12' Safari Single Lane Inflatable Water Slide transforms any outdoor venue into a wildlife adventure. Safari animal artwork and tropical palm tree theming create the kind of visual excitement that keeps kids lining up and parents booking repeat rentals. Commercial 18 oz lead-free, fire-retardant PVC vinyl construction, double-stitched seams, and a complete accessory package — blower, tarp, storage bag, stakes — make this unit production-ready from day one. Compact 20 ft × 9 ft footprint for easy setup in residential and commercial spaces.
Why Rental Operators Choose the Safari Water Slide
The safari animal theme and palm tree design targets the premium birthday party market — parents who want an experience that stands out are willing to pay more and refer more. The compact 20 ft × 9 ft footprint means this unit fits in neighborhoods and venues where larger slides can't, opening a wider customer base and more rental days per season. Commercial 18 oz PVC vinyl with double-stitched seams and Polypropylene and Nylon reinforced webbing at all stress points delivers consistent rental performance without repair downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the inflated dimensions of the Safari Water Slide?
When fully inflated, the Safari Water Slide measures 20 feet long, 9 feet wide, and 12 feet tall. Plan a setup footprint of at least 24 ft × 13 ft to allow for safe perimeter clearance around the base and slide exit.
How many riders can use this slide at one time?
The Safari Water Slide has a rated capacity of 4–6 riders on the inflatable at one time. For the slide lane itself, riders should go one at a time in sequence — the next rider enters the climb only after the previous rider has cleared the bottom landing area.
Is the blower included with purchase?
Yes — one electric blower is included with every Safari Water Slide. It connects to a standard household electrical outlet. No additional equipment is needed to inflate the unit upon delivery.
Can this slide be used both indoors and outdoors?
Yes. The Safari Water Slide is rated for both indoor and outdoor use. Indoor use requires adequate ceiling clearance of at least 14 feet and appropriate drainage. Outdoor use requires a level surface, proper ground anchoring with the included stakes, and water source access.
How long does setup and teardown take?
Most operators complete full setup — unpack, stake, connect hose, inflate — in approximately 10–15 minutes. Deflation via the zipper ports typically takes 3–5 minutes. The fast turnaround cycle makes this unit efficient for multi-stop event days.
What material is this slide made from?
The Safari Water Slide is constructed with commercial-grade 18 oz PVC vinyl that is lead-free and fire retardant. Every seam is double stitched with heavy-duty, extra-strength nylon thread. Polypropylene and Nylon reinforced webbing is applied at all stress points, and Velcro-sealed zipper flaps ensure secure, easy deflation.
What is included in the package?
Each Safari Water Slide ships complete with the inflatable unit, one electric blower, a ground tarp, storage bag, stake anchors, repair kit with PVC patch material, and a user manual. Everything you need to begin renting is in the box.
Is this slide ASTM compliant?
Yes. The Safari Water Slide is manufactured to comply with ASTM commercial inflatable safety standards. All materials are fire retardant and lead free. Safety warning signage is included on every unit to support responsible commercial operation.
Can this slide be used dry without water?
This unit is designed and optimized as a water slide. Dry use is not recommended, as the slide surface relies on water flow for smooth, safe sliding. Running the slide dry may increase friction and reduce rider safety. Always operate with a connected water source.
What does the 12-month warranty cover?
Beyond Tent provides a 12-month limited warranty covering manufacturer defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, improper storage, accidents, vandalism, or normal wear on zipper components. Contact sales@beyondtent.com for warranty service.
How does this slide ship?
The Safari Water Slide ships via LTL (Less Than Truckload) freight, palletized and secured for safe transit. Estimated delivery is 7 to 10 business days from order confirmation. Signature upon delivery is required. Contact us at 866-296-3868 to coordinate delivery scheduling.
What types of events is this slide best suited for?
The safari animal theme and compact footprint make this slide a top choice for birthday parties in the 4–12 age range, school field days, HOA summer events, church carnivals, summer camps, and community water days. Its distinctive themed design drives social media sharing, which generates organic bookings for operators.
