The Birthday Party Slide Kids Actually Ask For By Name.
The 12' Dolphin Dip Water Slide is a compact, high-demand water attraction built for rental operators targeting the birthday party market. The ocean dolphin theme consistently outperforms generic slides in the 4–12 age range — parents actively search for themed water slides, and the bright color palette generates organic social media exposure at every event. At 205 lbs with a 22 ft × 11 ft footprint, it hauls alongside other rentals for efficient multi-stop event days without dominating your truck space.
Built from commercial-grade 18 oz lead-free, fire-retardant PVC vinyl with double-stitched seams and polypropylene/nylon reinforced webbing at all stress points, this slide is engineered for rental-cycle durability season after season. Hook-and-Loop-sealed zipper deflation ports prevent accidental air loss during events. The included blower inflates the unit fully in 3–5 minutes, and full setup runs 10–15 minutes — fast enough for multi-stop days.
ASTM certified, fire retardant, and lead free. Backed by a 12-month limited warranty. Package includes blower, ground tarp, storage bag, stake anchors, repair kit, and user manual — completely rental-ready from the first delivery.

22 ft long × 11 ft wide × 12 ft tall. Plan a setup footprint of at least 26 ft × 15 ft for safe perimeter clearance around the base and slide exit.
How many riders at once?
4–6 riders on the inflatable at one time. For the slide lane, riders go one at a time in sequence — the next rider enters the climb only after the previous has cleared the bottom landing.
