Point Panic


This is a cool ride in a fully enclosed water slide where no light is visible except for strategic areas of installed light that will make you think you are going faster than you really are. This ride makes all your senses come alive from the intentional darkness of taking this water ride in the pitch dark.


Rock-A-Hoola


This 300 foot long slide concludes with a few laps around a bowl before being flushed into a the middle pool. Think of a dentist rinse bowl and you are the rinse.
