How to Roll a Bounce House Waterslide

[@sergejs2583]

Man, you are crazy, i’m 8 years in this business and I can’t imagine how you handle all this bounce houses alone 😱🤣

[@nick_o_glass]

It’s tenacity and gratitude that I get the fi this for a living. No slide will ever beat me. Rolled a 600lb myself last week at pickup while on the phone cause my worker was late.

[@BIGGWAGON04]

Exactly. I'm a big person and still have problems doing it alone. He makes it look easy

[@chrisreyes5073]

You have no idea how much this helped me. I just got my first combo and have my first rental for it today. I had trouble while setting up in my yard. You were able to show me what I was doing wrong, and now I'm feeling super confident now!!! Thank you!

[@nick_o_glass]

Love it!! Congrats ✊🏼

[@jorgefernandez456]

Hey man hope you see this. You inspired me to start doing this. I've watched all your videos and done all kinds of research. I am 21 years old making good money at a job I HATE. I cannot wait to get this bounce house business off the ground so I can finally start doing something I enjoy. Please don't stop creating content. You're changing people's lives for the better. It's crazy to think about, but you legit inspired me to chase happiness over social media. Different sides of the world, never met, and yet I look up to you. Super stoked, thank you Nick. Love from Fresno CA.

you make it look so easy cudos man

[@nick_o_glass]

Thank you! It is easy with the right technique

[@chancewestover8635]

I wish I would have seen this video 4 hours ago. Lol. I just received my first three inflatables today by fed ex and decided to blow up my 14’x14’ standard bounce house. Took about 10 minutes to set up but 2 hours and several attempts to get it rolled up tight enough to get the straps back on. Super excited to try it this way next time. OPEN FOR BUSINESS!

[@nick_o_glass]

Hahaha. Yep sounds about right, welcome to the biz!! Pro tip, the ROLL is no biggie, the FOLD is the key

[@chancewestover8635]

What I figured out is that I was doing a quad fold instead of a trifold.

[@nick_o_glass]

@@chancewestover8635 most are tri see do have a few 15x15 that we have to do quad

[@mzztender]

Nicely done !!

[@nick_o_glass]

Thank you!

[@ethanmadera1612]

This looks amazing. Definitely going to do that and keep it in mind.

[@nick_o_glass]

Thanks man!

[@bobiesbaubleboutique]

Looking good! The process has evolved a bit since I last saw you roll one!

[@nick_o_glass]

Kinda figured out what I’m doing now-a-days 😂

[@toneyslifestylehustlez8574]

Nice roll bro 💪

[@nick_o_glass]

Thanks Toney!

[@barringtonlyons7567]

Great videos man step by step instructions keep them coming websites and promotions

[@nick_o_glass]

You bet!!

[@xNickD337x]

I roll the bounce house all the way. Put the straps under the opposite side you do, then unroll a little, do the “flap” and pull the straps thru. It helps with making a nicer flap

[@nick_o_glass]

Nice!

Nice work man, Wats a good product to lubricat you water slides after each use??

[@nick_o_glass]

Not needed

[@lukefernandez1037]

Not only was this video educational. But entertaining as well, can tell you've been doing this a while. I have an inflatable tent 14*15*12h any suggestions for rolling that better? Just got it and attempted first roll up 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@nick_o_glass]

Thank you so much! It’s just practice and trying little changes to the process until it’s tight, small, and compact!

[@kjturner7233]

Where did you get that hand truck? I like the way the strap goes around it and I also like the small wheels so you can just pull it.

[@nick_o_glass]

That’s the old Rollsall.com! Now we have a new fancy one. LIFE CHANGING PURCHASE

[@OfficialReysace]

What air blower do you use? What’s the wattage/hp?

[@Mdcilg]

Hi bud thanks for putting out these great vids, I recently purchased 2 older 26ft waterslides and I'm trying to find liners for the bottom pool with velcro. Do u have and place I should look at. Thank u

[@nick_o_glass]

Spacewalksales.com tell Cory I sent you he’ll get it handled!

[@coreydaughton1095]

What dolly do you use

[@kbanks02]

this may be a dumb question... but do they have blowers that reverse so you an suck the air out?

[@nick_o_glass]

It’s an attachment and you use the blower backwards. It’s ok not that effective

[@rickyprez37]

Really cool. Thanks.

[@nick_o_glass]

You bet!

[@jesticespitzer1757]

Hey nick!!! Just started fallowing you on here! I started researching the bounce house business about a month ago and I’m seriously thinking about giving it a go. I plan to start with 4 inflatables for now. My question is. Right now I have a 5x8 trailer. Do you think it would be enough to start off with? How wide is that trailer that you just loaded onto? Thanks!!

[@nick_o_glass]

Yep you’re good to start! Run with that until you’re too busy then by 7’ x 16’ tandem axle With electric brakes. Future proof yourslef plus buy once cry once. We have three 7’x 16’s now and the 6’x14’ just sits

[@soulbreaker1051]

I just got a lot of good tips, I left my water slide a slopping mess but this video will help me lol.

[@nick_o_glass]

Hahah it will indeed!

[@julioletona9664]

Can I still roll the bounce house with the stopper from the front the same way ?

[@nick_o_glass]

Absolutely man. We take these pools off in the fall. They go back on today actually!

[@DIYDiaz]

This was super helpful!!!! Thank you! 👏🏽

[@nick_o_glass]

Editing video for Wednesday posting of 18ft waterslide rolled by myself!

[@slowuwu]

Try rolling the slides over here in the UK, thicker the material makes it a lot harder buddy

[@nick_o_glass]

The vinyl is thicker over there?

[@slowuwu]

@@nick_o_glass yeah its real thick, have you got any socials. I'll send you photo if you want. i own a bouncy castle business and my slide weighs around 480-490 pounds

[@nick_o_glass]

@@slowuwu Jesus!!!! That’s the weight of a 19ft waterslide. Why are yours different? Yeah DM me on Instagram @nick_o_glass

[@chris.kneeland]

Pretty impressive with one person. How much does this house weight?

[@nick_o_glass]

Wait until the next video where I roll an 18ft slide by my skinny-ass self 😂 it’s about 375lbs

[@madtoker1741]

Couple things Nick. I noticed you didn't use a tarp on the concrete isn't it more likely to get damaged on the concrete without a tarp? I have bags for mine at least my bounce house and my combo. do you not have bags or are they just too much work? Thank you in advance

[@nick_o_glass]

It was just blown up on concrete to clean it! But I still don’t tarp them on concrete, just on grass or gravel. And yep I sandbag them at all rentals on concrete

[@madtoker1741]

Thank you but I didn't mean sandbags I have covers did I put it over to Inflatables after I roll them all of ours are brand new so the wife wants to put them in bags. Is it a waste of time?

[@madtoker1741]

The bags are from the manufacturer same material as the inflatable

[@nick_o_glass]

@@madtoker1741 OH yeah the bags. No I’ve never used them. Too slow and no point IMO. They’re in a big ass box in my shed hahaha

[@T.sotelo559]

Hey man quick question if the side gate of a house is narrow for the slide to fit how do you make it fit?

[@nick_o_glass]

We call it the smoosh and push. You lay the unit down, jump on it, and the squeeze it thru since it’s skinneer

Thanks so much for doing this video, super helpful!! Your 19ft slide, do you roll that yourself or need a partner to roll it?

You bet man!! I HAVE rolled it alone the same way but it’s got to be a perfect fold for my little ass to roll the big part of the fold. 98% of the tome we take 2 people for it
