John Scurlock designed the first inflatable structure in 1959 and came up with the idea quite by accident. He was watching his employees jump on some inflatable covers for tennis courts he was experimenting with and the idea slowly gained momentum. He originally called the inflatable structures "Space Walks" and started a company of the same name. He marketed the inflatables for kids and started out with a large air mattress which he then modified with walls some years later. The windows were composed of clear, solid plastic and were enclosed like a bubble with one fan inflating the bubble and circulating air and the other inflating the base. Students in England purportedly used the same idea to build inflatables structured for a fundraiser they were hosting and a number of other uses began to crop up. The word "moonwalk" became the moniker of choice and the idea spread, becoming increasingly successful. Soon enough, safety regulations were passed in the UK and the US and the inflatables industry boomed. Today, the inflatable amusement industry continues to grow and thrive as more and more people are realizing the benefits and fun inflatables bring to their users. Since its invention in 1959, the Space Walk has spread throughout the world and entertained billions of children and adults.
The original inflatable game was the Moonwalk (bounce house). Today there are a wide variety of inflatable games that come in all shapes and sizes. Many inflatable games put people in head to head competition with other people such as the bungee run and gladiator joust. There are also several inflatable obstacle courses available. Because of their large size, most obstacle courses consist of two or more inflatables connected together. The Styles can range from Jumps, Combos, Interactives, Slides, Games and Toddler Series. The entertainment industries of Moonwalk is now manufacturing licensed lines that include famous characters like: Batman, Batmobile, Cars - Disney Pixar, Casper, Curious George, Disney Fairies, Disney Princess, Dora the Explorer, Elmo, Finding Nemo, Go, Diego, Go!, Looney Tunes, Mickey Mouse, Pirates of the Caribbean, Power Rangers, Ratatouille, Scooby Doo, Sesame Street, Sponge Bob Square Pants, Strawberry Shortcake, Superman, The Backyardigans, The Incredibles, The Little Mermaid, Tinker Bell, TM Ninja Turtles, Tootsie Roll, Winnie the Pooh, World of Disney.
Inflatables are large portable structures that are connectoed to a high power fan. When the fan is turned on, the structure inflates to it's full size. Inflatables are also know as Bounce Houses, Bouncers, Jumpers, Jumping Castle, Inflatables, Inflatabe Game, Inflatable Interactive Game, Inflatable Play Structures, Moon Bouncers, Moonwalks, Party Jumpers, or Spacewalks. They come in many shapes and styles such as castles, water slides, and obstacle courses.
