Wet’n’Wild water park has built a reputation as the “Summer Playground” of Las Vegas and has just launched an exciting, one-of-a-kind interactive thrill ride, a unique waterpark experience, theSlideboarding Game. An electronic game, a thrilling waterpark attraction and an extreme style ride all combine to make up the personality of this new waterpark wonder.
This WhiteWater attraction, is paired up with one of the park’s most popular slides, Zipp Zapp Zoom. This unique Wet’n’Wild addition offers an extreme element of play from an extreme sport thrill seeker to grandma and grandpa. This new ride, recently unveiled on Memorial Day weekend will solidify Wet’n’Wild Las Vegas as the premier water park in the area according to the facility’s management. The Slideboarding game is the first-of-its-kind in the world and integrates an online gaming platform into a waterpark ride that will define the future of the waterpark industry.
Ok, sounds interesting, but what exactly is Slideboarding? Slideboarding incorporates gaming and competitive sports into a waterslide experience. It creates an X-sport culture that is a game, a sport and a physical thrill and it is expected to set a tidalwave of change throughout the industry forever.
Wet’n’Wild just launched the SLIDEBOARDING App a few days ago, it will simulate the actual ride experience. It features a replica of the park’s, Zipp Zapp Zoom, with the same twists, turns and colored buttons. Slideboarders will be able to practice their skills while away from the park or on the go to prepare for their next visit. Gold and VIP Season Pass holders can enjoy this experience all summer long and others can pay-to-play as they level up.
