On Memorial Day weekend, Wet‘n’Wild Las Vegas will unveil its newest attraction, the world’s first “Slideboarding” waterslide.
Slideboarding at Wet‘n’Wild Las Vegas
Slideboarding, which has been implemented on the Zipp Zapp Zoom ride, integrates gaming and competitive sports into a waterslide experience that will change the waterpark industry forever. The technology employs a smart gaming system that tracks each player’s progress/scores as he or she heads down the slide. It then posts the scores on affiliated scoreboards. The system creates tailored experiences for each rider in varying degrees of difficulty based upon prior games.
Here’s a sneak preview and explanation of how Slideboarding works:
