This is the first ever sealed air, [custom, inflatable water slide](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inflatable-tanning-pool) meant for the yacht industry. Now you can turn your already-badass personal house boat into a water park without the giant line ups. The company states that there is no "off the shelf" option for getting the Freestyle Cruiser, but rather that each is [custom-sized according to your yacht](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custombuilt-yacht). The water slide comes in either a leg-supported version or a non-leg supported version, but the latter is not recommended for yachts spanning over 5 meters. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Yacht-side Water Parks:** The Freestyle Cruiser Inflated Water Slide provides a unique opportunity for yacht owners to invest in creating exclusive water parks on their yachts. - **Custom Inflatable Water Slides for Luxury Vessels:** Expanding on the Freestyle Cruiser, companies offering custom inflatable water slides to yacht owners is a potentially lucrative market. - **Personalized Attachments for Luxury Boats:** Customized water slides for yachts opens up opportunities for other personalized attachments to boats such as inflatable obstacle courses or floating trampolines. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Luxury Yacht Manufacturing Industry:** Customized inflatable water slides can be seen as an innovative tool for yacht manufacturers to offer their customers, with immense potential for market differentiation and added value. - **Marine Recreation Industry:** Innovative water slide designs and development bring a fresh perspective to the marine recreation industry and offer targeted products to specific demographics looking for unique aquatic experiences. - **Outdoor Recreation Industry:** The Freestyle Cruiser Water Slide introduces an innovative outdoor recreational activity to the industry, with a potential to cater to private and corporate events. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Seafaring Sky Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airyacht.md) - [Hot Tub Boats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacruzzi.md) - [Floating Bar-Style Docks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bote-inflatable-dock-hangout-classic.md) - [Humongous Hydrofoil Luxury Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydrofoil-luxury-yachts.md) - [Floating Cabana Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floating-cabana-bar.md) - [Jet-Ski Powered Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-16.md) - [Outdoor Waterslide Drinking Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-do-you-meme-slip-sip-flip.md) - [Multifunctional Four-Seater Watercraft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-crosswave-waverunner.md) - [Ultra-Opulent Razor-Like Yachts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-71-superyacht.md)
