The 22-foot Big Blue Dual Lane Water Slide combines height, side-by-side racing, a long slip-and-slide section, and a pool into one Charlotte-area rental. Now It's A Party lists the active unit from Matthews with published dimensions of 40 feet long, 18 feet wide, and 22 feet high.
That footprint gives the attraction more event presence than a compact backyard slide. It also creates a specific planning problem: the host needs room not only for the tower but for the full runout, pool, water connection, drainage, queue, and exit traffic. The direct product page is the correct place to confirm the exact configuration.

Why this attraction stands out
Dual lanes allow friends or siblings to start together, while the extended runout makes the ride feel longer than a simple climb-and-drop slide. The blue color scheme and palm details create a strong summer visual without tying the event to a licensed theme.
The pool at the end changes supervision and guest circulation. Participants should exit promptly and return to the queue on a route that does not cross the wet landing area.
Match the rental to the guests
Large birthdays, school celebrations, church events, camps, neighborhood parties, and company family days are natural fits when water access and drainage are workable. Confirm intended ages, rider capacity, swimwear guidance, and whether adults may use the slide.
Age grouping can improve safety and enjoyment. Smaller children may need separate periods from older, faster guests, especially on dual lanes where racing encourages momentum.
Plan the complete footprint
Start with the published 40-by-18-by-22-foot size, then add blower space, anchors, hose routing, queue depth, exit clearance, and access around the pool. Check the entire height zone for branches and lines.
Walk the yard after imagining continuous water use. Identify slopes, drains, patios, doors, landscaping, irrigation, septic areas, and neighboring property. Confirm the hose connection distance and whether the surface remains stable when wet.
Run the attraction with intention
Assign an adult to the entrance and another to the pool or exit when the guest count is high. Control starts so the landing area clears before the next riders descend. Keep nonparticipants and loose toys away from the runout.
Charlotte thunderstorms and soft ground can change the plan. Confirm wind, lightning, rain, and rescheduling rules. A backup activity should exist so the host can make the correct weather decision without pressure.
Confirm the product-level booking terms
Use the direct product page to confirm current pricing, Charlotte-area delivery coverage, rental duration, included setup, hose or water requirements, power, pickup, and cleaning expectations. Ask whether the slide may be used dry and whether the full slip-and-slide and pool shown are included.
Provide the address, surface, gate measurements, access photos, water connection, event time, and rider age range. The provider should approve the actual site rather than a rough statement that the yard is large.
Final booking checklist
- Confirm the exact event address and delivery coverage.
- Verify the current product, price, rental window, setup, and pickup.
- Measure the usable site and the complete delivery route.
- Confirm surface, anchoring, power, water, staffing, and supervision.
- Review weather, cancellation, rescheduling, and overtime terms.
- Match participant eligibility and event rules to the provider's guidance.
Before event day, give one responsible adult ownership of the rental plan. That person should know the provider's arrival window, the approved setup area, the participant rules, and the weather decision process. Clear ownership keeps last-minute questions from being scattered among guests and makes the provider handoff easier.
Big Blue is a premium Charlotte-area water attraction when the full 40-foot route fits naturally. Plan the water and exit path with the same care as the slide tower, then book the exact unit.
