A swing-slide has an elongated seat sized and shaped to hold a rider in a seated position with his legs extended. The seat is suspended from an overhead support by front and rear suspension members to normally freely swing back and forth in a substantially horizontal position when the front suspension member is shortened. Lengthening means for the front suspension member is automatically actuated by the height of swing or manually by the rider whereby the front end of the seat is lowered converting the latter to an inclined slide for ejection of the rider into an adjacent body of water.
