The Kamikaze Wet n' Wild Water World

Australia’s first and only Sidewinder opened last September 2008 at Wet ‘n’ Wild Water World – Australia’s largest waterpark which is owned by Warner Village Theme Parks.

The Double Sidewinder, branded as the Kamikaze, plunges riders down a sheer 11 meter drop at an angle of 70 degrees. Reaching speeds up to 50 km / h, riders feel the sensation of zero gravity.

Chief Executive of Warner Village Theme Parks (WVTP) John Menzies says, “We expect this new attraction to be a big hit with our thrill seeking teens and adventurous families. It’s a unique attraction and the first of its kind in the southern hemisphere.”

"Before your stomach has a chance to catch up to your body you are already hurtling up the other side…if you were the backwards rider you are now staring straight down, and if you were the forwards rider you are thankful for that backrest. You continue to slide up and down, sometimes spinning, feeling as if you are on a giant sheet of ice." - Gavin Seipelt | Parkz.com.au
