Thanks. Looks exactly like what I need. Price makes me sad. I’d need 4, 2 for each slide. Not sure how badly I want to fix this.

I have been playing with slide toppers for over 9 years now. Snow and rain. I started out with inflatable toys. Then I built a cool PVC pipe thingy that I could insert and remove from the ground. And then I did nothing.
Nothing has worked best. Ok, that was phrased oddly. I quit putting things under the toppers. When we get a bunch of heavy rains I will take my extendable brush up and tilt the edge of a topper just enough to drain most of it off. But that is pretty rare when we get that much rain. Mostly I just leave it. The pool will dry up in a day or so. We are just careful not to stand near the slide when we bring it in.
If I were permanent in a really rainy place I might do something, but since we travel constantly it's not a thing I worry about.Dallas

We use a 6" exercise roller as you really only need something to raise the center of the topper to keep the water from pooliing. We poked a hole all the way through one end of it, ran a thin rope/line through it, tied it off, and will use the other end of the rope to pull the roller out before pulling the slide in.

I have a 315RLTS and I get water on asked topper. I actually bought 6 pool noodles duck taped three together and then the user three. I then tapped them end to end abd skid it under the topper and have never had a problem since.
