ABSTRACT:
A water slide includes a trough or tube having an entry end elevated with respect to a recovery end for conveying water and individuals from the entry end to the recovery end. A loading platform extends into a starting pool and is designed to allow easy and safe access from the rear and both sides to provide entry to the trough. The flow of water into the starting pool or reservoir cascades over and onto the loading platform and then into the trough in a steady manner. Steps are provided into this pool to allow access to the loading platform. At the recovery end of the trough, an elongated recovery ramp is provided to allow exit off the water slide at a variety of positions.
