WhiteWater has introduced a new version of its Boomerango water slide at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, adapting the attraction for indoor water parks.
The new ride, called Zambezi Rapids, combines the company’s Boomerango feature with a Constrictor slide to create a course with steep drops and high-banking turns.
The Boomerango Boombox design allows operators to incorporate the feature into indoor water parks without requiring the same amount of indoor building space. The enclosed structure extends beyond the building envelope, allowing the ride to operate in different weather conditions.
WhiteWater says the enclosed configuration increases the perception of speed and adds an element of surprise. The ride retains the steep descent and weightless sensations associated with the original Boomerango.
“Boomerango Boombox is not just a new ride for the sake of something new. It’s using the world’s best ride in a different environment, making the experience even better,” said Doug Smith, WhiteWater’s head of sales.
Travis Nelson, president of Kalahari Resorts & Conventions, said the resort aims to combine established attractions with new experiences.
