I know I remember my first giant slip and slide as a kid!

I am just very impressed with how you kept up on foot filming running down that hill 😂

It’s tough to beat that fun in the summer!

I love the idea of the kiddy pool at the end to slow down.

[@TheLawnTools]

So cool! Definitely need to try this but my hill isn’t as steep as yours

[@kove]

Definitely want it on a hill. I wish ours was more steep for this!

[@kove]

Found this in spam comments. Imagine Ben Lawn Guardian's old lawn with a slipnslide! Ben certainly *had the steepest hill all the ladies loved.

Fold it a few times at the top to keep the stakes from ripping it.

Kids for sure have enjoyed the day!

[@kove]

Sure did, wears them out too, we've had it out three times now!

With all the rec pools closed up here for the summer I’m bringing the kids down. That is way too much fun.

Lol, yes we've been forced to be creative. Okay, just bring more soap! 😁

[@kristynjohnson3510]

Making great memories!

Absolutely!

Dose this beautiful slide will work on flat area ?

[@kove]

i suppose it would

[@Fabianjaxson]

With that kind of fun on a hill like that you will never see an overweight kid! They are working hard and don't even care haha

That looks awesome, I need to find a spot with a hill now!

You should!

midwest must have alot of hills? Assuming, this is the midwest? Sorry if I'm wrong

in the STL area

[@Rayraywheelz]

Very cool an unforgettable experience

[@kove]

thanks Ray! Exactly why I made it!

[@garymac1760]

Did the hose run all the time, or wet it now and then?

[@kove]

Yes, unfortunately uses a lot of water and gets super muddy.

[@kristynjohnson3510]

How fun!

[@jcap1983]

what’s the grass look like after?

[@kove]

It depended on the day's temp, amount of sunlight and how long we ran it. After doing it about 10 times, I don't go longer than 3 hours and try to minimize water use (more soap). It has and will kill cool season grass if left on too long, I think one time I left it on there for 5 or 6 hours. Warm season grass tolerates it much, much more.

[@brendagillians]

Sooo going to do this

[@kove]

It's real easy, do it!

[@amaliadinatale2089]

Haha I would like make one to the sea … but I don’t know how … how I take water … haha

I can only have 75 in so could I cut the plastic. This summer I’m trying to make a homemade water slide. Pls tell me if I could do that

[@kove]

How much do you have? It's all kinda relative to what you expect.

[@andrewsmith4958]

I could have 100ft

[@aafamilyfarms4412]

It's not 6 millimeter but 6 mil and one mil is one thousandth of an inch

[@kove]

lmao, quarter inch thick plastic would be a beast! Good catch..

[@craigzilla100]

I mean the grass won't be killed after just a few hours once a week or so right?

[@kove]

I'd do it a couple hours every two weeks if using the same spot. Unfortunately I used it all day and killed the entire strip.

[@craigzilla100]

@@kove yikes 😲. Good to know.

[@Kiera9977]

6mm ?? You mean 0.6mm??

1 mil is not 1 mm, it is 1/1,000 of an inch.

lol, I can't believe those words came out of my mouth, I should know better. Thank you for the correction Robert!

[@andrewnaum4749]

only thing soap will kill the grass.

[@Rayraywheelz]

The plastic covering the grass will kill it faster than the soap

[@kove]

Not at all! and I've had both cool and warm season grass in the end there. it does just fine. Soap acts as a surfactant, helping the soil absorb water more quickly!

[@kove]

INDEED! Do not buy clear if possible. If you buy clear, keep on grass for only a couple hours. I since bought a second after the first got too many holes. White works perfect, and I leave on the grass all day.

[@251melabelle]

Doing it with 6 mil

Let me know how it worked out!
