WhiteWater, an international water park attraction company with its headquarters in Vancouver, created a stir at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo 2023, held in Orlando, by presenting their new products and projects. The company also received the Brass Ring Award as Best New Product.
Vantage, WhiteWater’s software division, launched the IAAPA Expo 2023 with the publication of Joy Economy, a comprehensive 300-page book. The book is a valuable resource to the attractions industry and includes interviews with leading industry figures who share insights on how to create exceptional experiences for guests and employees.
The Wall Runner water slide, a revolutionary new product that gives a zero-gravity experience, was unveiled at the Expo. This innovative ride propels the rafts through artfully designed arcs, while maintaining forward motion.
WhiteWater also displayed several new products that were launched earlier this year. These included the popular Infinity Master Blaster Water Coaster, the miniature Mini Blaster and the award winning Elevated AquaForms 12 – a raised version their modular aquatic play systems, which won the Brass Ring Award as the Best New Product for Water Park Ride/Attractions under $2 million. The unique structure is designed with over 85 m (278 feet) of decks and bridges. It offers guests of all ages a variety of experiences. Elevated AquaForms 12 is not only a great way to enhance play, but it also maximizes space. It provides clear sightlines while freeing up space on the floor in water parks.
WhiteWater led the way with groundbreaking projects at the expo. The Icon Tower, which will be the tallest tower with a water slide in the world at 85 meters (278 feet), as well as The Rise of Icarus, the tallest tower of water slides in North America in the U.S. were two of the projects that broke records.
WhiteWater’s global project updates demonstrated its dominance in water parks, with projects spread across Asia Pacific, Europe and the Americas. The Middle East was also included. Among the notable projects are SnowStar in Shanghai and Mega Abyss, in Japan. Oceana in Liseberg, in Sweden. And Thermas Dos Laranjais, in Brazil.
