(eap) The Adventureland Resort in Altoona, Iowa (USA), which celebrated its 50th anniversary this year, recently announced a novelty for the 2025 season. Under the name “Hyperlight”, the “Typhoon” waterslide will reopen with new light effects and sound. iSlide technology will be used to transform the waterslide into a new experience with colour-changing lights and dynamic surround sound. Thanks to the different combinations of light and sound, no two slide experiences will be the same.
“Our park team is continuing our massive park-wide transformation project in 2025 with yet another new experience for our visitors to enjoy,” says Adventureland Resort General Manager, Mike Lusky. “Next summer, the thrills are going to shine brighter in Adventure Bay as we introduce the completely reimagined Hyperlight water slide, offering summer fun in a whole new light for every rider.”
Only this year, the guests-favourite “Underground” wooden roller coaster (Custom Coasters International) was reopened following a comprehensive modernisation (see EAP News of 22.04.24). ■
