Nov 08, 2014: The SlideRider might be the coolest toy we’ve ever seen- though it’s probably not just for children.
Meet SlideRider, the coolest concept toy in the world. And it’s really close to being available on the the market.
The clever device was suggested by Trisha Cleveland, from Minnesota whose invention answers that age old question "why do we have stairs when we could have a slide?"
The designs are finished and the first prototype was completed in September, here it is in action.
The site behind the SlideRider Quirky, helps make inventors’ dreams a reality. Anyone can submit and idea and then members vote on the best ones which actually get made!
Simply unfold the padded base to cover your stairs, assemble the safety bumpers and take a week off work to spend on your new slide.
SlideRider features a weighted top and a cushioned bottom pad so you don’t smash into the wall (unless you do something stupid).
When you’re done, fold it up and put it away for the next rainy day.
