Well it was Action Park at one time and we all know how that ended up... I went to Mountain Creek once and thought I was going to flip over on one of the tube slides there.

I LOVE that slide! It's my favorite body slide ever because of how much amazing theming went into it. That, and the cave it ends in.
Bump:
I remember seeing Splashtacular's renderings of their water slides, including their 360 rush slides. I always though if these were to become a reality, they would be the coolest water slides out there.
Low and behold, two parks in the United States currently own and operate their own versions of the 360 Rush, with another planned to be built. Have you guys seen these things, they look insane!
I cannot wait to try one. It'll probably be at the Spring Valley Beach water park in Alabama.
This entire slide complex looks pretty crazy. I'm proud to say it was built by an Israeli company. Now if only they were to build something this cool HERE IN ISRAEL. lol.
This is the White Lightning speed slide at Raging Waters San Jose. The higher walls made me feel more at ease when obtaining such air...the landing was a bit of a thump but was well worth it!
^Six Flags White Water has those exact slides, but with more drops. Dragon's Tail. An initial dip, followed by three drops. The last two producing airtime just like what you see in that photo!
Currently my favorite body slide at White water, and any water park that has them!
In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (my home town) there's a water slide called Kilimanjaro. It is 50 meter tall (164 feet) and it's said to be the world's tallest water slide. Can anyone confirm that?
^^ I did past internet research on finding the tallest. As far as I was able to see, that slide's has the tallest drop. It's not the tallest freestanding water slide in the world, but it is the tallest. Insano is only 49m.
