Polin has supplied two new waterslides at Las Vegas’ Cowabunga Bay – which was the company’s first turnkey waterpark project in the US.
Both opened in time for the start of the 2015 season. The ‘Surf Safari’ features the world's largest manmade "wave” and is the first of its kind to ever open in the US, according to Polin. Named at Cowabunga Bay as the "Wild Surf", the giant slide features a 40-degree sloped entrance and a parabolic design.
It includes a trip through the dark and a drop of 55ft (16.76m) through an enclosed flume before riding the wave.
While Surf Safari has a beach theme at Cowabunga Bay, it can be designed to match other concepts and can be created in a variety of versions, including with half-open, half-closed and fully closed tunnels with or without the waterfall feature.
The other attraction installed is Polin's ‘Family Rafting Slide’, which the park named "Beach Blanket Banzai." The resin transfer molded (RTM) manufactured family slide allows guests to splash along a 9-degree slope at 8.5 miles per second through more than 600ft (188m) of twists and turns, "S" curves and an overall 60ft (16.76m) change in elevation.
