THIS MONTH’S COVER SHOT: Cowabunga Bay Las Vegas represents the first North American turnkey supply contract for Polin Waterparks & Pool Systems. The new park, opening this spring, will take its inspiration from the beach scene of the 1950s and ‘60s. Featured across three themed zones will be a selection of Polin slides and attractions including the company’s first Surf Safari. See page 22 for more details.

At Funtown Pier in Seaside Heights, 90% of the pier was destroyed. We had a Sling Shot, which was a total loss. We also had a brand new ride destroyed in the Port of New York. Our losses are well over a million dollars
