Cool wave slide. About $120.00. I don't think I payed that much when we got ours though. I'd look around.

The one pictured on Amazon web site worked just fine, I actually got it from my neighbor.

We ordered a Swing-N-Slide Cool Wave (it's an 8 foot slide) from Acehardware.com. It comes with free shipping to any Ace Hardware store. The price is $84.99 (and I think it is currently on sale for less). This was much less expensive than any other vendor. We have used it for two years and it still looks like new.

there are several settings you have to choose from. Make sure you have set for slides.

Lyn, a small instruction booklet. You will want to buy more slides (I bought the box of Celestron prepared slides) since this only comes with four prepared slides. The five plain slides are a lot of fun too. I bought a separate science book that explained and had a lot of pictures of magnified images - and a short story type book called something like Greg's First Microscope. Together, those items made a well-rounded gift - and my son 9 YO enjoys even a year later.

Should work. Need room to get a running start for a good slide. Only the front actually floats or sits in the water the rest would be sitting on your dock

I'm using 71mm wheels. I'm more of a cruiser so if you are wanting to do slides and such I am not sure what wheels to use. I suggest looking on some forums for a more educated answer.

This is what it says it works best with. This slide mounts easily to 42" to 52" slide platform and features sturdy, smooth, 1-piece molded-plastic construction, but it is 96 inches in length ,I would say that 80 inches would be a steep straight down slide and could result to serious injury to the child I would say no on that

This was purchased as a gift, but I don't believe it came with slides. I purchased a starter set of slides separately.

You need a 4x5 feet space where you will be attaching the slide to.4 feet deep 5 feet wide.

The video that came with the slide was informative. I believe they recommended to set up only on level ground and not on concrete.

The slide seems to only fit 5 ft deck height with no modification. I did modify the setup by constructing a raised landing deck so I could have a higher starting deck height. Hope that helps.

at 33 inches it would not be much of a slide. my grandchild just turned one and she wants more. buy the next size up. they'll get the hang of it really fast

One print and one slide tray comes with it... but that's all you can use at one time so it should be enough. I bought an extra slide tray 'just in case', but I didn't use it.Chet

the largest one you can get. i bought the small one and it is not big enough. i have a 32 ft with one slide.

I actually bought it for use on my xdm. You should brace it with a cloth or some cardboard to keep it from scratching the slide (learned the hard way) but it works perfectly other than that.

Two slides required. One on each side. I recommend mounting slides near the lower edge of the side of the box, but if the box is strong/stiff enough, you could mount it higher.
