I like the idea of a hook shaped device, either blowing air or a water wand type.
But here is another idea- 9.5 times out of 10 nothing has accumulated on top of my slide, and I don't need to do anything but look to be sure. But looking requires climbing the ladder too. How about a selfie stick for your cell phone so you can inspect from the ground?
I'm not sure they make a selfie stick long enough for use with fiver slides, but I'm sure you could adapt something to extend the reach.
You are exactly right, many times when I'm not camping under trees there is absolutely no reason to even think about debris on top of slide. Taking a quick pic of the slide top would confirm. Also, would be useful if needing to clean to make sure everything is off. Great idea!
EDIT: Ordered Blue tooth selfie stick today. Will make PVC extension. Quick way to inspect top of slide.
