Florida debut for ProSlide's KrakenRACER
By Martin Nash
Rapids Water Park in West Palm Beach, Florida, US is now home to the world's first ProSlide KrakenRACER. The new water slide is the latest evolution of the award winning ProSlide ProRACER, which since its debut has taken home the IAAPA Best New Water Ride accolade.
With its fast dispatch and high capacity, the patented ProSlide KrakenRACER starts 'racers' head first through enclosed, braided, twisting tunnels, where they experience accelerating drops and twists before speeding towards the open racing lanes for one last plunge and the chance of first place. Rapids Water Park chose the KrakenRACER in a six lane configuration, but it is also available in other multi-lane footprints - 2, 4, 8 and 10 lane configurations.
