Proper anchoring is essential to the safety and performance of this product. Use of professional
anchoring services recommended. If improperly anchored, product can move and/or float away.
Aquaglide is not responsible for damage, injury or loss due to improper anchoring.
Open Water:
(General guidelines - not intended to replace need for professional installation)
1. Place product in an area protected from wind and boat traffic. Confirm allowances for stated minimum
water depth, safe distance away from hard objects and vertical clearance requirements.
2. Consider prevailing conditions such as wind, waves and other environmental factors in positioning this
item. Inflatable items can be unstable in strong winds. Slide faces are best positioned toward a breeze,
not across it. Check water and seabed for sharp or dangerous objects.
3. Keep product a safe distance from docks, boats, boat lifts, and any other structures. To prevent
potential damage to product, injury or death, NEVER tie the product to a dock.
4. Use one vertical mooring line for each anchor ring with an appropriate weight anchor, ground screw, or
earth anchor at base. For exposed anchorages or water depth greater than 20ft. (6m), bridles connecting
two rings to one mooring line may be preferable.
5. Anchor weight recommendations based on average conditions. Sites with potential for extreme
weather, strong tides, currents, winds and/ or swell should consider using up to 50% additional weight or
holding power.
6. Install anchors and mooring lines before inflating this product.
Commercial Pool:
1. Product placement in commercial pool should be checked carefully in advance to confirm allowances
for the stated minimum water depth, safe distance away from hard objects (pool edge) and vertical
clearance requirements. Most residential pools cannot meet these requirements.
2. Pool moorings typically use a minimum of 4 horizontal mooring lines made from heavy duty elastic.
Additional horizontal moorings should be added to increase stability and as necessary for larger product
groups.
3. Horizontal Moorings are usually attached to pool anchor eyes, such as those used to secure lane buoy
lines. Adjust mooring lines to keep product(s) under tension at all times.
ANCHORING
Lugeback is a floating warped luge corner for use in water. Users may slide or walk around inner corner.
Users may also climb across the more challenging outer corner.
PVC surfaces are slipperier when wet, which can lead to loss of balance when walking or climbing. Slide
surfaces will perform better when previously wetted. Chemical treatments are available to reduce friction
on sliding surfaces, but are not generally necessary if products are kept clean.
Maintain Working Pressure:
Air pressure is temperature dependent. Always confirm proper working
pressure before and during use as changing temperatures may affect the internal pressure. If product
