Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

Loving these new SLIDES, yes, SLIDES, not to be confused with Coasters...

This does look promising though, it's HUGE.

they have started testing the ride with dummies and attached a camera for one of the test rides.
It's actually looking even better than I expected! It's spinning nicely, when its being pushed up by the magnets and it looks like there is a whole bunch of water splashes getting you nice and wet.
Can't wait to see the reviews for it and hopefully ride it myself!

Talk about getting **** soaked! Looks fun, but it still isn't a coaster.

^ It's in a waterpark, it's what I'd expect, but, I'm with you with the classification, hate how these are classed as "Coasters", it's a SLIDE.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

Ahh right, didn't know it was in the water park. I presumed it was in the main park because people were classing it a coaster...

Wow, this thing looks like it'll be EPIC when it's open to the public! I don't like water slides, but I'd ride that in a heartbeat!

Test dummies on a waterside makes me chuckle.

Just like how Disney refer to Crush 'n' Gusher as a water coaster.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

I'm pretty sure that got Started when Schlitterbahn's Master Blaster was called a water coaster. It's a more than a water slide but less than a coaster. We need a better word or phrase to describe it. Any ideas?

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

It's just marketing speak, the same as a RoboCoaster and a Disk'o Coaster....Wouldn't stress too much.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

It's a Waterslide. End of. There's no point trying to make names up for it. It's a slide.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

I mentioned it on the other page because of enthusiats that are calling it a coaster, not the parks.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

^ No, the park has started calling it a water slide/coaster...or at least Daniel has

My comment was more based at Youngster Joey. I know Martyn, thankfully someone else sees it the same as me.

Yeah, but I don't care about that, they can call it a Jesus bouncer for all I care. Its enthusiasts that try to call these coasters that gets on my nerves.

Re: Holiday World |"Mammoth"| Water Coaster

Its in a water park, with rafts and water, with no form of being strapped in.

Its a slide, or a ProSlide or whatever the maker calls em.

I dont understand how hard it is to call it that. Could it be because it can produce airtime and is technically launched up the hills via magnetic propulsion?
