But how does he know that? Like, I wouldn't say it's confirmed because a part-time Alton Towers worker says it is. Until I see it from a valid source, I ain't believing it.

Yeah, that video is hardly concrete evidence. It sounds to me like he's reading the text from Screamscape though.

So, how about a Screamscape source: http://www.screamscape.com/html/seaworld_florida.htm#InfinityFalls
2018 - Infinity Falls - (4/17/17) I obtained a few more facts about the new Infinity Falls ride coming to SeaWorld Orlando in 2018. As suspected, the ride hardware will be coming from Intamin, and it will have a length of 1,520 feet that will take about 4 minutes to travel through on the 8-passenger rafts, with a 42” height restriction. The final drop, which they are listing as the “tallest river raft ride drop in the world” will be 40 feet.

Thanks Hixee, now Screamscape is much more of a reliable source than someone who spends most of their time cradling a litter picker.

100% a Intermin, Seaworld confirmed it. Pretty sure it was on twitter, But cant seem to find the tweet. I will keep digging.

Anyone know why this isn't finished yet? I have annual passes to SeaWorld, aquatica, and Busch gardens. I was just there last week and it doesn't even look close to finished ☹️ we as pass holders are supposed to get first rides according to SeaWorld so when it is finally finished I'll definitely let y'all know how it is

@CP6 probably knows, but it's really unlikely he'll be allowed to tell. But asking might be worth a shot anyway.

EDIT: Oh crud, tagging people with usernames shorter than four characters is a bit of a hassle. Oh well, he drops by the forums from time to time, maybe he'll see the post anyway.

I doubt it. Word is they are having issues with multiple pumps moving water in the ride and the filtration system isn't working.... The ride has been drained, again.

Intamin have made tons of rapids... Surely the only difference with this one is the elevator? But even that hasn't been the main cause of issues.

Construction update: still not open.

This is one of the better construction updates this subforum has seen lately. Just today I found out that half of the attractions in the stickied threads around here had been open for months without anybody noticing. Keep posting updates, and we may be able to get the status up to date within a month of its opening!

Manufacturers are always changing providers of parts and technology and means of certain aspects of their rides such as the pumps on this etc., everything has teething issues.
