Hello All,
Our small kids are asking about adding a small slide to the side of our pool and I am not in the market for a $600-$1K version unfortunately.
Two options come to mind:
1. Inflatable:

I am wondering about the hassle of inflating, storing and longevity for this one. Flagstone coping and pebble cement might be harsh. Plus securing this like a tent does not seem sturdy to me.
2. Kids slide:

I am comfortable with rigging up a cemented spike-stabilizer support, similar to a swingset for this. It appears more sturdy IMO.
Anyone having thoughts or comments, actually done this?
BTW - I AM familiar with the insurance, risk etc aspects - please post accordingly.
Thanks.
