More and more often, event planners are incorporating inflatables into their get-togethers. Kurt Wresh, president of USA Inflatables and Events in Dayton, says most go with an obstacle course or giant slide—but he has many more options to offer planners. “For team building and stuff like that, we have human foosball, Zorb ball racing, Zorb wars, and a human billiards game,” he says. Zorb has participants climb inside giant inflatable balls for various activities.
Prices range from $250 for your standard bounce house to $1,800 for the most elaborate inflatables. Mechanical skateboards and surfboards can be rented for $1,300. “We have the largest selection in the Twin Cities,” Wresh says. “We also have face painters, balloon artists, magicians, and characterists. We try to be your one-stop shop when it comes to your event rental needs by [also] providing entertainment.”
