I helped my dad with one years ago and I can tell you that I found it to be really difficult.  Hope your a good swimmer!

My friend has an accu float, similar concept as an insta slalom, you will need a few helpers and space for it the few helpers need to be as engaged in the process as you are
so the roll out or roll in is as smooth as possible. good luck

We have one and set it up each year when we are on vacation.  We found it easy to install if you have 2 or more people to help.  We had 4 adults last year along with a couple kids in the open bow.  Each person had their designated role.  2 people on the platform, one driver, one person handing pipe and the kids throwing the balls when needed.   Once you get the routine down on the first couple balls it goes quick. 

We did not have wind or current to deal with so that may make it more difficult.
