New water ride on the Horizon

Supplier: Horizon Three Industries LLC

WWA and IAAPA earlier this month saw Horizon Three Industries showing off a prototype of one of its new range of interactive water attractions called Soaker Rides.

The first ride the company plans to bring into production is the Geyser Gunner - of which the prototype was an example - where riders race against each other to the top of the ride.

Teams of two guests are buckled into seats that are mounted either in a shallow pool or over an existing one. Each seat supports a water gun, which can swivel left, right, up and down. A target in the centre of the pool responds to water pressure when hit by the water gun.

There are two ways to use the water gun. Firstly, a concentrated stream of water on a riders own target causes a frothy water geyser to raise his seat. In addition, if both team mates hit their own target, the water geyser will raise the seat even quicker.

Secondly, by hitting a target corresponding to an opponent’s seat, that team will be doused with so much water from the back of their seats that they cannot maintain concentrated fire on their target, potentially slowing their upward progress.

The first team to the top wins and will remain floating on top of the geyser until the ride time expires.
