I am REALLY looking forward to visiting this bathroom after visiting IKEA with my mother.
.


It had two 120m long Reifenrutsches that start at over 13 meters in height.

The slides can reach speeds of up to 24.14km per hour.

It also has a jungle rope swing over the pool.

I loved the hydro tube slides when i went there. They had a lot of swinging back and forth. They also were very fast. The rope swing was amazing as well.

I like how Cool5 uses a Dutch word in a title and a German word in his post. I actually hoped it was about a pool in Germany or The Netherlands, but I hoped wrong. Damn you Cool5. I know German and Dutch get mixed up a lot by the entire world, because both languages are pretty similar. But I'm pretty sure you should have known better! :lol: Try Schwimmbad or Freizeitbad. Those are a lot more common in the German language. As for Reifenrutschen, try: Bandenglijbaan. That would be the Dutch word for that. (Now I wonder how many people are going to try to pronounce those words. :lol: )

Looked like fun slides tho, too bad about the inner-tube slides. Body slides are the best slides!

"Body slides are the best slides!" (As long as they are smooth on your back)

I haven't seen actual screws on the sliding part of a body slide. If they were, you would get seriously hurt. Usually if the body slides have rough edges at the seams they need to re-coat the surface and smooth it out again.

The slide was great! Nice oscillating and swinging in the helix of death at the end.
