The Rush Vertical Drop Slide is a tall inflatable attraction built around one principal feature: a steep descent from its raised platform. Measuring approximately 20ft high, 20ft long and 20ft wide, it creates a prominent centrepiece for school occasions, community festivals, birthday celebrations and organised family events in Drogheda, Dundalk, County Louth and nearby areas.

Designed Around a Steep Vertical Drop

Unlike a conventional inflatable slide with a longer gradual slope, the Rush Vertical Drop Slide gives users a much steeper descent. Participants climb internally to the platform before taking their turn down the slide and leaving through the designated exit.

This focused format works well at events where organisers want one large feature rather than several smaller activities. The slide must be operated according to the supplied instructions, including any rules relating to user height, age, capacity and turn-taking.

A Covered Platform Helps Control Use

The platform incorporates a built-in overhead cover designed to prevent users from jumping from the top. This is an important part of the slide and must not be pulled, climbed upon or interfered with.

The inflatable is annually safety tested, fully insured and supplied with suitable safety mats. SuperBounce professionally installs and secures the equipment before explaining the operating requirements. Responsible adult supervision must remain in place throughout the hire.

Allow a 30ft x 22ft Setup Area

Although the inflated dimensions are approximately 20ft x 20ft x 20ft, a minimum clear setup area of 30ft x 22ft is required. The additional space allows for anchoring, blower placement, safety mats and movement around the equipment.

The full height also needs careful consideration. Check for trees, branches, overhead cables and other obstructions rather than measuring only the lawn.

The proposed position should be:

• Large enough for the complete 30ft x 22ft operating area
• Clear above the full 20ft height
• Free from walls, fences and fixed garden features
• Away from drains, flower beds and uneven sections
• Separate from tables, chairs and refreshment stations
• Accessible through an external route at least 3ft wide

Grass Installation Only

The Rush Vertical Drop Slide is suitable for setup on grass only. It cannot be installed on concrete, paving, tarmac, artificial grass or another hard surface.

The grass must be firm, sufficiently level and suitable for secure anchoring. Tell SuperBounce about slopes, soft ground, buried services, drainage features or any uncertainty about the proposed installation area before booking.

A Three-Foot External Access Route Is Required

The delivery team needs a route at least 3ft wide between the vehicle and setup position. Measure gates and narrow side entrances at their smallest point, taking hinges, handles, bins, pipes and fixed posts into account.

The slide cannot be transported through a house. If there is no suitable external route to the garden, this product cannot be installed there. Steps, tight corners, steep paths and long carrying distances must also be reported in advance.

Front Garden Installations Must Be Discussed First

Customers considering a front garden position should call 086 272 8333 before completing the booking. SuperBounce will need to consider the available grass, public access, surrounding paths, road proximity and the ability to maintain a controlled operating area.

Do not assume that a large visible lawn is automatically suitable. The required space must remain entirely clear and allow the inflatable to be installed securely.

Build a Larger Activity Plan Around the Slide

For an event using several inflatables, the Rush slide can be paired with a separate product from bouncy castles to provide a more traditional bouncing activity. The 3 in 1 Inflatable Sports Game offers shorter ball-based turns, while garden games can provide a less physically active alternative.

Organisers planning events for different age groups can also consider obstacle courses or compare other equipment within super slides. Each attraction needs its own complete operating area, supervision and queue space.

Keep Refreshments in Their Own Zone

Food and drinks must remain away from the slide. A popcorn machine or Twin Barrel Slush Machine can be positioned at a separate serving station where suitable power and supervision are available.

A 10ft x 10ft Gazebo may provide cover for an appropriate event area, while further practical additions can be found within party extras. None of these items should obstruct the inflatable’s entrance, exit, anchors or blower.

Standard delivery takes place between 8am and 12pm. Seasonal collection times are:
