Continuous Water Coaster Thrills in Limited Indoor Footprint 

August 29, 2024

Challenge:

How to build a thrilling attraction with steep drops in an indoor venue, which inherently has a tight footprint. 

Creative Solution:

The uphill blasts and steep drops of a water coaster usually result in the longest lines inside a water park. To bring these thrills to an indoor water park that has a very limited footprint—Macau is a small city, after all—WhiteWater’s engineers eliminated Master Blaster’s runout lane and instead, made the slide path a continuous loop. 

Infinity Master Blaster does not require a tower. Instead, riders in 1-2-person inner tubes are transported on a conveyor up to the first hill where their rafts edge the precipice, building anticipation before they plummet down 21 feet in the biggest drop in the industry. The reprieve in the valley is only brief before the riders are then launched into a high-velocity uphill blast before another heart-pounding drop. More crests and troughs follow along with plenty of twists and turns before looping back to finish at the start. Theoretically, riders could stay seated in their inner tube and go for another round if one wasn’t enough.  

This Master Blaster design allows it to be easily integrated into tight footprints.
