Experience
The ride uses a chain lift hill as opposed to a conveyor belt on most water rides. The boat rises 80 feet (24 m) then turns around under a tunnel at the top. It then drops 80 feet (24 m) at a 50 degree angle at a speed of 42 miles per hour (68 km/h). The ride ends with a giant wave that drenches people on and off ride. A bridge is installed at the bottom of the hill where visitors can stand to get soaked.
