We made one out of a sheet of clear plastic and a couple garden hoses once. Got in a boatload of trouble for killing the hell out of the grass, but, like you said, well worth the punishment.Great post.Kirkhttp://kirkstarr.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-30830615241609560462007-04-25T03:32:00.000-07:002007-04-25T03:32:00.000-07:00The ideal of a slip-and-slide was always better th...The ideal of a slip-and-slide was always better than the reality. I recall too many times where I received some minor injury from using one of my friend's slip-and-slides. Too little water? Ouch, plastic-burns. Start you slide from too high off the ground? Be prepared to get the wind knocked out of you, as well as the indignity of landing like a dead fish on the plastic sheet and not Rosshttp://typeset.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-16509384868498945422007-04-25T06:08:00.000-07:002007-04-25T06:08:00.000-07:00i never had a slip n slide... it always looked lik...i never had a slip n slide... it always looked like fun on the tv commercials, though...grrracehttp://grrrace.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-81679510395528479812007-04-25T06:42:00.000-07:002007-04-25T06:42:00.000-07:00great story, budd. my brother and i always wanted...great story, budd. my brother and i always wanted a slip 'n slide but wound up with a wet banana. they were pretty much the same, and i definitely got scraped a few times landing in dirt. oh, and sliding over the pebbles and rocks we forgot to clear from under the plastic...thinking about it makes my stomach hurt. fun times, though. definitely brings a smile to my face.gamanyhttp://gamany.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-90339977072475602932007-04-26T06:58:00.000-07:002007-04-26T06:58:00.000-07:00Kirk-I think they have those at frat parties.
