At the park today, trip report later, but it looks like the 2023 addition is an orange and black water coaster like Watubee at Holiday World. Could see the pieces from Rampage in their backlot.

Yeah they've got pieces on site as per a Rampage POV from June and a livestream by their PR guy Alex. Pieces look fairly big. There was some talk that they opened the Rocket Racer slide late for the season in order to reroute pipes for said attraction (screenshots below are from June).

Well colour me mildly surprised. Not only is it from Proslide, but they’re still manufacturing pieces up here in Canada;

any clue what the slide type is?

Not so easy to tell, only that it’ll be big. I’m going to cast a bit of doubt on the whole water coaster idea though since between what’s been seen in Alabama and what I found today, there’s no telltale window-walls (see below).

Good point, but they could be the last pieces being made. Surprised its still being manufactured.

Another stop at the factory today. There are some weird pieces out here;

An experimental waterslide at AA? Consider me intrigued.

Quick update from Proslide’s factory today, none of the parts have been shipped out yet. Now, this looks like their largest addition in a long time, but there’s been no usual “Christmas Present” campaign from the park, as their last two additions were preceded by months of teasing. This is making me think that we’re looking at a 2024 project here;

Exhuming this thread a year later, and the "Christmas Present" campaign is now and confirmed and underway for a 2024 attraction. So yea, Christmas Day it is, lads and lasses.
Also on the topic of the holiday season, a Magic of Lights drive-through will be hosted at the park; https://fb.watch/nB8fXzF9gS/

A little late but new at Alabama Splash Adventure for 2024 is a big chonker raft slide. Not huge by usual standards, but they've been working on this for a few years and these kinds of attractions don't come cheaply. Disregarding the crazier tendencies of this branch of the Koch family... support smaller parks and businesses! An addition like this is a commendable effort;

Bit of a bump, but the new Slidewinder opened today!
It has just 9 days left of the operating season. The delay kinda came per State inspectors taking their sweet time to get out there, and Dan Koch (park owner) being... mildly unstable.
