A slab of playground gutterspout ice placed under your butt when going down the slide guarantees a mach 2 speed down the slide. After explaining it to my youngest daughter, she and the rest of the kids were banned from the practice last winter because the excessive speed sent kids flying out of control at the bottom of the slide.
When you're a kid, flying out of control is what you do best!

Living in California, ice was hard to come by but we all had a huge source of wax paper in our lunchboxes/bags which increase the slide speed nicely. The neat thing about wax paper is it left a residue so those without the paper could still benefit!
