I am searching for The Six Flags Banzai Mega Water Slide and the website you directed me to (Wal-Mart.com) is out of stock. Are there any other stores that may carry this product.Thank you for your help.

I too have been looking everywhere for this slide. To make things more difficult I live in Canada. If anyone finds somewhere online to purchase this I would really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for any help you can offer!

ok, this is the slide I really want. Our old neighbors had just the bonzai falls racer which was only one slide and was supposed to take 100 pounds although it could support more. I encourage everyone who lives in a warm climate to look into this. Thanks

We bought this slide two years ago. It was great the first year....but by the beginning of the second year it was showing a lot of stress on the seams and they were beginning to rip. By the middle of the summer last year it was not staying inflated by the pool end enough, thus causing it to spill large amounts of water onto our grass, and/or having a very uneven pool at the bottom for the kids to slide into. The top handles were ripped, and it no long inflated enough for even ONE child to slide down let alone two. It is my understanding that the warranty is for 30 days. So, we spent about $375 (at that time) for less than two summers worth of use-probably only used about 20-25 times total. That's not a lot of use for such extreme damage/it is no longer usable. Use caution when buying one. We bought ours at Toys R Us-after searching all over! Good luck


When we were kids, all we really had for summer fun was the hose, a yard sprinkler, a water ballon, an inflatable pool, a slip and slide and a cheap plastic squirt gun. I really envy the aquatic offerings of the modern age kid. Not only do they have Super Soakers that can hose down the "enemy" from 30 feet, they also now appear to have gigantic water park worthy speed slides for the backyard like the new Six Flags Banzai Falls Mega Racer ($450)! Not only does it have dual 22 foot long waterslides, it also has a giant splash pool and a climbing wall! The good news for parents is that they don't have to blow it up manually like the old days because it has a built-in blower that can inflate it in under 3 minutes. Even better news, it has a weight limit of 400 pounds so when the kids head in to get back to their video games we can sneak in a few races as well!

We were instantly impressed. Our kids at the time were 6 and 4 and had hours upon hours of fun.
Our first purchase was the ORIGINAL Banzai Falls Water Slide (our purchase date is 6/2005). This slide is still standing, water connections still functional and in excellent conditions. No holes, tears or rips from our overly anxious bunch! And this is all after 2 years of FULL use!
In June 2006 we decided to buy another since the overwhelming enthusiasts in our neighborhood couldn't seem to wait their turn on our one slide. We then purchased the Six Flags Banzai Falls Wave Rider Waterslide. Another great purchase. No holes, water connections still in perfect shape, and still providing hours of entertainment.
Just this past week (June 6, 2007) we decided to do it again. Purchase yet another water slide. We have a big party coming up in the next few weeks and thought it would be great. We decided to purchase the 2 Lane - "Banzai Falls Double Drop Raceway". Wow is this one neat. The slides are more reinforced then the past years. I truly believe that this one will long out-last the others. It even comes with a packet full of patches "just in case".
My recommendations for keeping this investment going year after year:
When you are done using the slide, turn the water off but continue to let the air flow for at a minimum 1 hour. This will allow the slide to dry and prevent any musty smells.
Fold the slide up and put it away when not in use. We have bought large rubber maid containers (the largest they sell) on wheels for easy moving. This has prevented them from being torn in the thin bags the company sends with the slide.
When the slide is not in use keep it out of the sun light. We have found that it is best stored in a cool dry spot. In a garage, storage unit etc... again keeping it in the container in one of these areas would be best.
Drain the water-bags when not in use. The water bags are more prone to holes while they are full. It is best to drain them between uses.
I recommend hosing the slide down (sides, bottom, and climbing area) after use. Birds like to leave their mark on the slides, and if you don't get to it right away it is a bit harder to remove (the air flow dries it out). If you wait too long and it dries to the side of the slide, use a dab of kitchen dish washing liquid on a rag and scrub while the slide is inflated. This should prevent it from staining as long as you get to it within 24 hours.
To prevent the slide from dry-rotting, keep it maintained in a cool dry area. If you do not have a cool dry area, during the winter months pick a nice day and inflate the slide. Giving it a quick hose down. Then let it continue to stay inflated for at least an hour, before putting it back in the container and putting away.
To prevent the slide from fading in the sun, make sure it is stored in a dark area. The containers with the lid are the best.
Hints for easy use:
While the slide is inflating (not quite fully inflated) attach the water connections to the top of the slide. This will prevent you from having to climb up the slide to attach them.
If the children are not making big splashes when they land at the bottom of the slide, randomly let some of the water out that is collecting at the bottom of the slide. This will prevent it from causing the front of the slide to go "lop-sided".
To keep the slide free from dirty feet, place a small bucket at the end of the slide so they children put their feet in there before climbing up the back of the slide.
And most of all, ENJOY your slide. They are even fun for the adults! If you have specific questions about your slide, feel free to contact us at any time!
