Why Teams Love Our Inflatable Tunnels
Let's be real - there's something special about running through a tunnel before a game. We've supplied tunnels to tons of high schools, colleges, and even pro teams, and the reaction is always the same: pure excitement. The crowd goes crazy when they see their team burst through, and players tell us it gets them super pumped up.
These aren't your average party inflatables either. We build our blow-up tunnels using the same tough materials you'd find in professional sports equipment. They're wide enough for your whole team to run through together, and they'll hold up great in pretty much any weather. If you're into our heavy-duty stuff, take a look at our inflatable playgrounds too - they're built just as tough!
Make It Your Own: Custom Team Tunnels
Want your school colors? Your mascot? Your team motto? No problem! Our customers go crazy for custom designs, and we love making them. Whether you need a massive tunnel for your football program or something compact for indoor sports, we'll hook you up with the perfect size.
Here's a cool idea we've seen work great - some schools set up a whole fan zone with their tunnel. They'll add one of our inflatable ball pits nearby for the little kids, and it turns into this awesome pre-game hangout spot. Pretty neat, right?
Built Tough, Built Safe
Look, we know these tunnels need to handle a lot - excited players, crazy weather, repeated setup and takedown. That's why we don't mess around with the cheap stuff. We use the same commercial-grade materials you see in professional sporting events.
Here's what makes our tunnels special:
- Super strong PVC that won't tear or stretch out
- Double-stitched seams that can take a beating
- Quick-connect blowers that won't quit on you
- Special UV coating so the colors stay bright
- Really solid anchor points (because nobody wants a flying tunnel!)
- Easy-clean surface (because mud happens)
Just like our popular jumpers, we test the heck out of these tunnels before they leave our warehouse.
Setting Up Your Tunnel is Actually Pretty Easy
Nobody likes complicated setup instructions, right? We've made sure our tunnels are super straightforward to get running. You'll get everything you need:
- A powerful blower that'll inflate your tunnel fast
- Heavy-duty stakes and tie-downs
- A storage bag that actually fits the tunnel when you're done
- Clear instructions that make sense
- A repair kit (just in case)
Most of our customers have their tunnels up in about 10 minutes - even first-timers! The blower keeps it inflated automatically, so you don't have to worry about it sagging during the game.
Buy or Rent? Here's the Real Deal
Sure, renting might seem cheaper if you only need a tunnel once. But here's what we've learned from our customers: if you're using it more than a few times, buying just makes more sense. Schools and teams especially love having their own tunnel because they can get it customized with their branding.
Think about it:
- No more calling around to rent every time you need it
- Pays for itself pretty quickly if you use it regularly
- You can get it painted up with your team stuff
- It's always ready when you need it
- You know exactly how to set it up and take care of it

Questions People Actually Ask Us
How much space do we need?
You'll want about 20x10 feet for most tunnels, plus some extra room around it for stakes and people moving around. Shoot us your space measurements and we'll help you pick the right size.
Can these handle wind?
They're pretty sturdy - good up to 20 mph winds when staked down properly. If it's blowing harder than that, you might want to take it down or have someone keep an eye on it.
Can you put our logo on it?
Definitely! We do full custom jobs with team colors, logos, mascots - whatever you want. The printing holds up great and won't fade or peel off.
How long does setup take?
Most people get it done in 10-15 minutes with two people helping. Packing up is even quicker - maybe 5-10 minutes to get it deflated and packed away.
What kind of maintenance do these need?
Nothing crazy - just wash it down with soap and water if it gets dirty, check for any tears (though they're pretty rare), and store it somewhere dry. We include a repair kit for small fixes if you need it.
What about warranty stuff?
Yep, all our tunnels come with warranty coverage for defects. Give us a call if you want the specific details for the model you're looking at.
