'Revolutionary' ProSlide ride debuts at Siam Park

Canadian-based waterpark manufacturer ProSlide Technology has unveiled its newest waterslide – which combines two world-first rides into a single high-thrill experience – at Siam Park in Tenerife, Spain.
The ride, which officially opened in July and has been named Singha, incorporates ProSlide’s FlyingSAUCER features into its RocketBLAST water coaster, with patented water jet and boat design. Singha uses ProSlide’s water coaster and turbine technology to propel rafts up the coaster hills higher and faster. Rows of water jets line every hill to power steeper climbs.
Four massive saucer-shaped bowls punctuate the ride. The FlyingSAUCERs are steeply angled for a drop-and-dive sensation, featuring high-banked curves and maximum centrifugal force. "Our guests love speed and are looking for revolutionary rides,” said Christoph Kiessling, managing director of Siam Park. "That's Singha. Its constant acceleration, extreme curves and adrenaline-pumping drops will drive guests to our park for years."
