Purple Water Slide Rental — Wider, Longer Run, Same $275 Price as Other 16-Foot Slides
The 16' Purple Wave Water Slide stands out from the other 16-foot single-lane options in the Sandi's Moonwalks inflatable water slide rental lineup in a concrete, measurable way: it's physically larger. While the Tsunami Wave, Princess Sparkle, and Rainbow all run on a 14-by-28-foot footprint, the Purple Wave requires an 18-by-32-foot setup area — four feet wider and four feet longer, with an actual slide body 16 feet wide and 32 feet long. That's more slide at the same $275 price point. If your yard has the space for the larger footprint, the Purple Wave delivers more physical slide for the same rental cost.
The purple color scheme makes it a natural theme fit for unicorn parties, fairy-tale birthdays, royalty-themed events, and any celebration anchored in purple or lavender. Sandi's Moonwalks has served backyard water slide rentals in Leander and across the Greater Austin Metro for over 18 years. The Purple Wave pairs naturally alongside a bounce house rental for parties that want both a wet and dry inflatable in a purple or princess color palette.
Delivery, setup, and takedown are included. Confirm your yard has the 18-by-32-foot flat area needed before booking. Call (512) 294-2221 to check availability and reserve the 16' Purple Wave for your event.
16' Purple Wave Water Slide Specifications
Setup area (18'W × 32'L) is larger than the 14'W × 28'L footprint of other 16-foot slides in the catalog — confirm your yard has the space before booking. Water source (garden hose) provided by event host. Surface must be flat. 1 adult monitor required on-site for the full rental period. Prices shown are base rates. Pricing may vary for specific dates, locations, or delivery distances. Taxes not included.
Why the Purple Wave Is the Most Physical Slide in the 16-Foot Price Tier
More Slide Body for the Same $275 — If Your Yard Has the Space
The other 16-foot single-lane slides in the Sandi's Moonwalks catalog — the Tsunami Wave, Princess Sparkle, and Rainbow — all fit in a 14-by-28-foot footprint. The Purple Wave needs 18 feet wide by 32 feet long. That larger setup area accommodates a physically wider and longer slide body: 16 feet across versus 14, and 32 feet from base to climbing platform versus 28. More slide material, wider lane, longer run — at the same $275 price. For backyards where the additional four feet in each direction is available, the Purple Wave is the best physical value among the entry-level water slide rentals. Use the party date availability checker to confirm your date before booking.
Purple Is a Specific Theme Match — Not Just a Color Alternative
Unicorn birthday parties, fairy parties, royalty and queen themes, Mardi Gras events, and purple-palette celebrations are distinct enough in their color commitment that a pink or blue slide creates an obvious mismatch. The Purple Wave eliminates that friction. Its rich purple design matches the most popular purple-themed party categories for ages 3 through 10, and the visual match between the slide and the rest of the party setup is immediately apparent to guests walking into the backyard. For parents planning a birthday party where purple is central to the theme, the Purple Wave is the only slide in the catalog that delivers a true color match. Browse all inflatable water slide rental options to compare designs across the full lineup.
Still Just One Standard Outlet — No Power Trade-Off for the Larger Size
Despite its larger physical footprint, the Purple Wave still runs on a single 110V household outlet — the same as any other slide in the 16-foot tier. The additional width and length doesn't change the power requirement. The only preparation difference versus the smaller-format slides is confirming you have the 18-by-32-foot flat area available. Call (512) 294-2221 to discuss your specific yard layout before booking if you're unsure whether the Purple Wave fits your space — the team can help you assess before you commit.
Events Where the Purple Wave Water Slide Is the Right Fit
Unicorn and fairy themes are among the most popular birthday party aesthetics for girls ages 4 through 8, and both themes are built around purple, lavender, and rainbow palettes where purple is dominant. The Purple Wave is the most direct inflatable water slide match for these themes in the Sandi's Moonwalks catalog — a ride that a child who cares about the visual setup of her party will immediately recognize as chosen specifically for her. Use the event booking calendar to check Purple Wave availability on your birthday date.
Not every princess party is a pink party. Royal purple has a long-standing association with royalty, queens, and fantasy kingdoms — themes where the Pink Sparkle slide's color creates a visual mismatch. For princess birthday parties anchored in deep purple rather than soft pink, the Purple Wave is the natural choice. It's also a match for queen-themed parties, purple superhero themes (Thanos aside), and any celebration where a child has specifically requested a purple visual identity for her event.
The Purple Wave's 18-by-32-foot footprint means it's best suited for backyards with more than the minimum square footage required by the 14-by-28-foot slides. For parties hosted in larger residential yards, ranch properties, or event venues with significant outdoor space, the Purple Wave takes advantage of that available area and delivers a physically larger attraction at the entry-level $275 price. It's the right call when the theme is purple and the yard has room to spread out. Browse the full inflatable water slide rentals catalog for the complete lineup before committing to a design.
At school carnival and community event contexts where a water slide is one of several attractions, the Purple Wave's additional width creates a more visually commanding presence in the lineup without requiring a step up to a 20-foot or 22-foot slide. Its larger body reads as a more significant attraction from a distance — important for drawing a crowd to the slide station from across a large event footprint. Pair it with a bounce house rental for a two-attraction layout.
How the Purple Wave Water Slide Rental Works
Before booking the Purple Wave, measure the area where the slide will set up. You need a flat, clear area 18 feet wide by 32 feet long — four feet wider and four feet longer than the 14-by-28-foot footprint of the other 16-foot slides. This is the most important pre-booking step for the Purple Wave specifically, since its larger footprint means not every yard that fits a standard 16-foot slide will accommodate it. Use the rental date availability tool to confirm your date and call (512) 294-2221 to discuss your yard dimensions before booking.
Power requirement is standard: one 110V outdoor outlet within reach of the blower hose. Water supply is a garden hose connected to your outdoor water source — provided by you, not by Sandi's Moonwalks. Confirm both are accessible from your setup area. Summer bookings for themed slides fill quickly; book 4 to 6 weeks ahead for summer weekend dates.
The Sandi's Moonwalks delivery crew arrives before your event start time, positions the Purple Wave in the confirmed setup area, inflates the slide, and connects the blower and water supply. Delivery, setup, and end-of-event takedown are all included in the $275 rental price.
One responsible adult stays at the slide throughout the rental period to supervise riders. At the end of the rental, the Sandi's Moonwalks crew returns to deflate and collect the Purple Wave.

More Inflatable Water Slide Options
20ft Blue Crush w/Slip N Slide
At $525 and 20 feet tall, the Blue Crush is the step up when height and a built-in slip-and-slide extension at the base are both on the wish list. The slide-and-slip combo gives guests two distinct water experiences in a single unit — the vertical drop of a tower slide followed by a horizontal splash run. For backyard parties where the crowd skews older and a 15-foot slide starts to feel like the minimum rather than the feature, the Blue Crush raises the experience significantly.

18ft Purple Falls Double Lane Water Slide
At $445 and 18 feet with two side-by-side lanes, the Purple Falls Double Lane is the natural purple upgrade for parties where both a height increase and faster throughput are priorities. Purple-themed events with a guest count large enough to create long single-lane lines benefit from the double-lane format's racing format and doubled capacity. The purple color palette carries forward from the Purple Wave into a taller, two-lane design built for bigger crowds.

22ft Ruby Crush Water Slide
At $375 and 22 feet tall, the Ruby Crush is the single-lane option for events where maximum height is the priority. Its deep red and purple-adjacent color palette keeps it visually in the same warm jewel-tone family as the Purple Wave while delivering seven additional feet of drop. For teen events, graduation parties, and community events where young riders expect serious slide height, the Ruby Crush is the upgrade path that stays in the purple-red color family without switching to a neutral design.

How is the Purple Wave different from the other $275 water slides?
The Purple Wave is physically larger than the other 16-foot slides at the same price. The Tsunami Wave, Princess Sparkle, and Rainbow all fit in a 14-by-28-foot setup area. The Purple Wave requires 18 feet wide by 32 feet long — more yard space, but a physically wider and longer slide for the same $275. It also runs on a single 110V outlet and is open to ages 3 and up, same as the others. For an amusement rental safety FAQ, visit our main FAQ page.
What yard space does the Purple Wave need?
The Purple Wave requires a flat, clear area 18 feet wide by 32 feet long. This is larger than the 14-by-28-foot footprint of the other 16-foot slides, so it doesn't fit in every standard suburban backyard that the Tsunami Wave or Rainbow would. Confirm your available space by measuring before booking. If your yard is on the smaller side, a standard 14-by-28-foot slide may be a better fit — call (512) 294-2221 to talk through your options before committing to a specific model.
Is the Purple Wave a good fit for a unicorn birthday party?
Yes. The Purple Wave is the closest color match in the Sandi's Moonwalks water slide catalog to the purple-and-lavender palettes common in unicorn birthday party setups. Unicorn themes typically involve purple, pink, and rainbow elements — the Purple Wave's design hits the purple anchor of that palette directly. If the birthday party has a strong pink component rather than a dominant purple one, the Princess Sparkle may be a closer visual match. Call (512) 294-2221 to discuss your specific theme before booking.
If I like purple but need a bigger slide, what should I book?
The 18ft Purple Falls Double Lane Water Slide at $445 is the natural purple upgrade — 18 feet tall, two side-by-side lanes, purple color palette. For events with a larger crowd where throughput matters or where older guests need more height to be excited, the Purple Falls Double Lane is the direct step up from the Purple Wave within the same color family. Call (512) 294-2221 to discuss which purple slide option best fits your event size and yard.
Can I add the Purple Wave to a bounce house order?
Yes. Sandi's Moonwalks delivers the Purple Wave alongside bounce house rentals as part of a combined party order — a wet attraction and dry inflatable running simultaneously. For purple-themed birthday parties, pairing the Purple Wave with a princess or unicorn-themed bounce house creates a fully themed two-attraction yard setup. Call (512) 294-2221 to confirm the combined footprint fits your space and to build a single order covering both units. Check your date first with the event date availability tool.
