Light Effects and Special P attern Effects can be applied to create a visually mesmerising journey through the tubes, or the slide sections can be supplied with a translucent finish. Magic Shine of course comes as standard. The spheres can be also be supplied half open or partly open.
Windigo is a colourful mat racer installation that begins with multiple enclosed tube slides that then runs into high-speed racer lanes. Thrill seekers will love the L ooping R ocket, featuring a body slide and super high freefall combo alongside a separate giant body slide. An additional freefall is featured elsewhere in the park. Po

in two configurations – as a pure tube slide and as a combination of Black Hole/Flying Boats and R afting Slide. Natural Light Effects inside the tubes add intensity to the ride experience. The dark -and-light -blue Space Boat attraction starts with a spiralling tube section and then progresses into its piéce de résistance, a bowl slide in which riders whirl around and around in either single or double - seater tubes before disappearing down the “plug hole” and out into a final small tube section/run-out. Keeping the kids happy is a model B9
pirate-themed play structure featuring tipping buckets, slides, net climbs, water cannons and water all around. Children will love it for sure, but Rikos guests of all ages will love the Surf Safari – if they’re brave enough to take this waterslide ‘expedition’!
