The BounceWave Story

Jason Ladd left his six-figure, full-time job back in 2005.  His longing for entrepreneurship and the ability to spend more time with his family sparked this move that would change the course of his life. Much like many of the new inflatable rental start-ups, Jason observed a high-demand for a reputable inflatable rental company in his family’s small town north of Tampa, FL, and took note of how lucrative the event rental industry was. With a few days worth of internet research under his belt, he started his own inflatable rental company, Xtreme Jumpers & Slides.

A few years later, the family’s inflatable rental enterprise expanded, offering inflatable products sourced from manufacturers nationwide. After experiencing challenges with design flaws, practicality concerns, and durability issues, as well as a desire for more attractive designs, Jason made the decision to initiate the design and construction of his own inflatables. From 2010-2017, Jason used all of the inflatables he built in his own inventory, testing field durability, practicality, as well as design rentability & themes that rented at higher volumes compared to others. After seven years of testing, Jason & family decided to bring these proven high-quality & thoughtfully designed commercial inflatables to rental companies all across the USA, thus BounceWave Inflatable Sales was born.    

BounceWave Inflatable Sales has became one of the largest Inflatable & Event Rental suppliers in the eastern U.S.A., and one of the fastest growing in the nation. Our rental outfit, Xtreme Jumpers, is still one of the largest in Florida to this day. BounceWave also expanded into the high-end event and wedding rental industry in 2023 with Orchid House Event Rentals. Our success comes from a simple recipe that so many companies tend to stray away from: Incredible customer service, high-quality products, and honesty.

And the story doesn’t end there, BounceWave Inflatable Sales is constantly growing, and has since expanded into the blower, event supply, and hand-truck industry with BounceWave Blower Co., Event Rental Depot, and Diamondback Dolly.

To this day, Jason and the BounceWave Team have a true passion for helping new businesses flourish and established businesses grow beyond imagined. 

In 2024, BounceWave officially opened its new Offices and 30,000sqf Warehouse in Central Florida, where we invite customers to come visit us in person and see why BounceWave Inflatable Sales is the BEST supplier in the nation. 

Always remember, as rental operators still to this day, WE DO WHAT YOU DO.
