Type Water Ride

Construction

Track is a semi-circular plastic channel with a small amount of water running along it. Boats slide along the track, assisted by the flow of water.

Constraints

  • Maximum track slope - 60°
  • Lift hill maximum slope - 25°
  • Maximum height above ground - 65 feet

Other Information

A good water slide requires at least one steep drop, but can be extended into a complex layout, so long as care is taken on the crests of hills, as dinghies can crash off the track.

A remedy for the problem is to build a completely circular section of track at the crests of hills and in the turns, which prevent the dinghies from leaving the track.
