Tidal Wave

Grote Hopkins Shoot the Chute in Amity Cove met een 85 ft drop en een splash die ook omstanders raakt.

Tidal Wave is Thorpe Parks klassieke nat-word-garantie. De oversized boot klimt omhoog boven Amity Cove, valt vanaf 85 ft terug naar het water en maakt een golf die net zo belangrijk is voor de kijkers op de kant als voor de riders zelf. De rit is kort, maar de impact is groot: water, lawaai en een dorp dat lijkt te zijn geraakt door een rampgolf.

See more than 50 min? It is probably busier than usual — consider a quieter moment.
