Switzerland’s Aquaparc has taken delivery of Europe’s first ‘Fusion Waterslide’ from WhiteWater.
Called the ‘Houla Hoop’, the attraction opened at the waterpark in Le Bouveret in late March. Aquaparc is one of eight leisure parks owned and managed by The Looping Group.
The Houla Hoop combines the high banking turns of WhiteWater’s ‘Constrictor’ with the near vertical oscillations of its ‘Rattler’.
The project posed a unique design and installation challenge of fitting a large amount of new fiberglass into a tangle of waterslide flumes, according to WhiteWater.
“Our team developed a detailed complete 3D environment of the site that allowed us to minimise any potential interference with the existing structural supports and waterslides,” said WhiteWater slidepath designer Marco Lechuga.
