WhiteWater to deliver world’s first AquaCourse™
installation at Alabama’s Splash Adventure
Update : 19/04/12 - 23h19Published by François Mayné the 15 April 2012, New.
Set to open this summer, the water park Alabama’s Splash Adventure (formerly Alabama Adventures Theme Park) has just announced that it will feature the world’s first AquaCourse™ installation, the WhiteWater’s newest innovation in water rides.
AquaCourse™ is a multi-level play experience inciting excitement by traversing guests through an exhilarating course of ropes, towers, bridges and zip lines while safely harnessing guests in. Providing a distinct family experience, individual guests determine their own challenges, while still sharing the complete AquaCourse™ experience with their whole family.
WhiteWater stated "360° interactivity is what makes AquaCourse™ the first of its kind! By removing all of the barriers of typical waterplay structures, such as decks and handrails, guests can safely interact with others without any obstacles in the way. Geysers bubble up from below, sprays drop from overhead, water guns shoot from side to side and even spectators can get in on the action by pulling a rope that dumps a bucket of water onto the head of those."
Available in various models, AquaCourse™ integrates seamlessly into water parks, amusement parks, FECs and other family-centric facilities.
