Why aren't slides built with a "pitch"
Why don't they build slides with a "pitch" on the roof of the slide so the water would run off to the front and rear of the camper like it does on a house roof? A couple of inches of pitch would do it...

Seriously, what could possibly be wrong with a rounded arch one? Think about it, the seals would be continuous all the way around from the bottom of one side, up and across the arch and down the other side.
Hard to build a rounded arch out of lumber that is straight.
They did, back in the day, have rounded roof barns. The neighbor has one. I always wondered how it was done until I went inside his. The rafters are all made of 1x6's . Each piece of 1x6 is cut to a shape and then 4 of them are nailed together to make a rafter with a round in it. Of course this barn was made well over 100 year ago. Can you image the labor cost going into building something like that these days????
