Slide, in particular water slide, - with a starting zone and a landing zone, between which extends at least one slide with a slide surface, which comprises a run-up section leading away from the starting zone and a run-out section leading into the landing zone, - with a plurality of slide sections of the slide track provided between the run-up section and the run-out section, - with at least one switch (23, 30) arranged in the slide, by means of which an incoming slide section is subdivided into a plurality of outgoing slide sections or a plurality of incoming slide sections are combined into an outgoing slide section, - the switch (23, 30) having a first slide connection and, adjacent thereto, a second slide connection, both of which are located opposite a third slide connection or at a distance therefrom and are arranged between the first and second slide connections (24, 25) and the third slide connection, and the third slide connection, viewed in the vertical direction, is raised relative to the first and second slide connections (24, 25) and, starting from the mouth region, an ascending section is formed in the direction of the third slide connection, characterized in that - in that two or more switches (23, 30) assigned to one another in pairs are provided in the slide, - in that the first switch of the mutually associated switches (23, 30) in the slide is connected to the run-up section or to the slide section leading to the switch by means of the first slide connection, and - in that the second switch of the mutually associated switches (23, 30) in the slide is connected by the second slide connection to the run-out section or to the slide section leading away from the second switch. - with a starting zone and a landing zone, between which extends at least one slide with a slide surface, which comprises a run-up section leading away from the starting zone and a run-out section leading into the landing zone, - with a plurality of slide sections of the slide track provided between the run-up section and the run-out section, - with at least one switch (23, 30) arranged in the slide, by means of which an incoming slide section is subdivided into a plurality of outgoing slide sections or a plurality of incoming slide sections are combined into an outgoing slide section, - the switch (23, 30) having a first slide connection and, adjacent thereto, a second slide connection, both of which are located opposite a third slide connection or at a distance therefrom and are arranged between the first and second slide connections (24, 25) and the third slide connection, and the third slide connection, viewed in the vertical direction, is raised relative to the first and second slide connections (24, 25) and, starting from the mouth region, an ascending section is formed in the direction of the third slide connection, characterized in that - in that two or more switches (23, 30) assigned to one another in pairs are provided in the slide, - in that the first switch of the mutually associated switches (23, 30) in the slide is connected to the run-up section or to the slide section leading to the switch by means of the first slide connection, and - in that the second switch of the mutually associated switches (23, 30) in the slide is connected by the second slide connection to the run-out section or to the slide section leading away from the second switch.
