They are pretty much parallel with the slides on ours. Only get the "ponding" on a heavy rain. When it happens I just run the slide in 6" to 12" and it will "dump" the water. Some people will place a beach ball or some elaborate pvc pipe contraption to hold the topper up. To me, I don't want to be on a ladder installing/removing stuff when a push of a button works, for my camper anyway.
