| Qatar’s Aqua Park installs Stingray surf machine |
|
Qatar’s Aqua Park has unveiled its latest new experience, the Stingray surf machine - a first for the Middle Eastern country.
The Stingray is a surfing and skim-boarding half-pipe ride manufactured by UK-based Murphy’s Waves, with specially designed skim boards that allow riders to stand and carve into the curved side walls.
“For the first time ever in Qatar, it’s possible to ride up curved sidewalls at 90 degrees to the direction of the water flow,” said Mohamed Firdaus, Aqua Park Qatar general manager.
The surfing and bodyboarding attraction has been introduced to encourage repeat visitation and increase variety at the Doha waterpark – which currently features a wave pool, a lazy river, a WhiteWater West Boomerango and a children’s pirate-themed area.
Firdaus expects the new addition to help boost customer attendance, especially during Eid-al-Adha holidays in September.
