Six ProSlide water ride complexes debut at new waterpark on China’s Hainan island
ProSlide Technology Inc. has announced its installation of six high-performance water ride complexes at the new Evergrande Ocean Flower Water Park on China’s Hainan island.
With the massive new attraction having undergone its soft opening, the leading water ride design, manufacturing and technology company sees the development as the advent of a significant collaboration between ProSlide and the Evergrande Group in China.
With the Evergrande Ocean Flower Water Park home to six breathtaking complexes that house 15 leading ProSlide water rides including, at a staggering 359 metres, the world’s longest ProSlide RocketBLAST® Water Coaster, ProSlide Vice President - Asia-Pacific Business Operations, Chuanchao Cheng advised “we couldn’t be more excited to have partnered with the Evergrande Group on this monumental water park.
“The vision of leisure and entertainment on display at Evergrande Ocean Flower is inspiring. ProSlide’s water rides lead the global industry in innovation and technology, and we’re proud to be bringing them to Evergrande’s newest park.”
Ocean Flower features a high-performance ride mix of ProSlide’s most innovative and iconic water rides spread across the park’s six complexes.
Among them is a ProSlide water coaster that holds the title of China’s first four-person RocketBLAST® Water Coaster, while also being the world’s longest. Guests of Ocean Flower get to experience the ride’s eight high-powered booster sections that use patented water jets to drive the inline boats higher, faster and longer than conventional ‘blaster’ coasters.
The park is also home to China’s first 6-person TornadoWAVE® - a visually stunning curved wall that anchors the top parks around the world and sends riders sweeping across the top, experiencing zero-Gs.
Proud of how the teams that worked on the project showed their resilience in the face of obstacles, ProSlide’s Chief Commercial Officer Ray Smegal added “dealing with COVID guidelines, time differences, holidays and collaboration between ProSlide’s Shanghai team, Ottawa team, Evergrande’s engineering team and various suppliers presented some big challenges that required creative solutions.
“Our teams showed an unwavering level of diligence, commitment, passion and dedication to this incredible project, and our client’s vision.”
