As said on themeparkguy.com a new water park is going to open in Abu Dhabi. The park will also feature Vekoma Splash Battle, which will be first of its kind produced by Vekoma!

Yup. This one blows.

Water, I mean, of course.

Throughput will still be crap, as it's still 4 passengers per car.

Since they need to fill the onboard water tanks, they can't seem to make these dispatch any faster, but at least if peeps are riding in swim trunks, loose articles shouldn't be as much of a problem.

That looks like another of those things Holiday World are getting in the corner.

Why's that not in construction guys, CLEARLY a coaster...

How's this not had a topic earlier? I've been following this for ages now and not thought to bother to make a topic. I'm a fool.

There's a LOAD of photos here;

Isn't there 2 separate coasters there?

Re: Yas WaterWorld with Vekoma Splash Battle

^ No. One coaster, two lifts. There's other images that if you follow it along, you can see it's one coaster.

I was thinking exactly the same.

This looks like a killer water park though! <3

Re: Yas WaterWorld with Vekoma Splash Battle

Okay....seriously, HOW LONG IS THAT COASTER GOING TO BE?! It honestly looks like it has 3 lifts and will hit the entire park before ending

Re: Yas WaterWorld | "Unknown" | Vekoma Splash Battle Coaste

What was the point in moving this, its already fully constructed!

:lol:

I did look and couldn't find any information on the ride and its status; still it's neatened up the topic - furie

Re: Yas WaterWorld | "Unknown" | Vekoma Splash Battle Coaste

The coaster's name is Bandit Bomber.

Re: Yas WaterWorld | "Unknown" | Vekoma Splash Battle Coaste

Also, the proper name for coaster type is a Splash Party, not a Splash Battle.

Cool, topic title can be updated.

Re: Yas WaterWorld | "Bandit Bomer" | Vekoma Splash party

^ Also changed from "Bomer" to "Bomber".

I can't wait to actually see Bandit Bomber testing. Looks so much fun weaving in and out of all the slides and theming structures.

 

[TilenB]

The park has opened 2 days ago!
Construction completed

Taken from their Facebook;

There's also a POV of Bandit Bomber;

I think it looks like good fun, I love the interaction with all of the theming elements and when all the water effects are going to be fully working, I think it'll be a great family coaster.

 

[nadroJ]

The name sounds like bum bandit.

I will be travelling down to yas island pretty soon to try out this amazing looking waterpark, a full review of the park and this ride will be coming.
