Abstract
A water slide tube adapted for braking during hydroplaning in a catch or landing pool of a water slide. The water slide tube includes a tube body and a tube speed control assembly, which has a floor attached to a bottom surface of the tube body. The assembly includes one or more drag-inducing elements, provided in or on the floor, configured to produce drag when an outer surface of the floor travels over an upper surface of the catch or landing pool. The floor includes a sheet of flexible material joined along its peripheral edge to the tube body. The sheet of the floor includes a planar portion arranged to be tangential to the bottom surface of the tube body. The one or more drag-inducing elements may include at least one hole extending through the floor providing a passageway for water to an interior space of the tube body.
