ProSlide Breaks New Ground in Water Ride Design with HIVE
HIVE Debuts with World-First Installations at Zoombezi Bay and Chimelong Water Park
November 19, 2024 – Orlando, Florida – ProSlide, a global leader in water ride innovation, is proud to introduce HIVE™—the world's first immersive helix water ride feature. In 2025, the ProSlide HIVE™ will debut at Zoombezi Bay in the United States, Chimelong Water Park in China, and with Radamis in Egypt, capturing guests in ways only world-class attractions can.
Behind the HIVE™ lies a mission to craft a world-first water ride experience that pushes beyond conventional expectations. Inspired by the authentic design of the FlyingSAUCER and dynamic energy of a Formula 1 track, ProSlide's design transforms every ride into a fast-paced adventure.
The ProSlide HIVE ™ is available in two configurations – 2-person tubing (HIVE™ 20) and 5-person raft (HIVE™ 35). This revolutionary feature introduces panoramic sightlines in a seamless, high-speed, high-G helix. The experience is as much about visual storytelling as it is about speed, delivering a stunning, high-energy environment where guests can feel part of a thrilling narrative at every moment.
The Hive: Two HIVE™ 20s where guests will experience panoramic sightlines and 360-degree spirals for a fast-paced, zero-G, head-spinning journey.
Mussel Mayhem: Featuring the TornadoWAVE 12 / TORNADO 18 SwitchBACK, this iconic duo brings next-level action to riders in the American Midwest for the first time.
Captina Falls: The world's first matting RallyRACER with FlyingSAUCER 8s.
“We couldn't be more excited to bring Conservation Tower to life at Zoombezi Bay this summer—a first-of-its-kind adventure that blends heart-pounding fun with a purpose,” said Anthony Sabo, Vice President of Zoombezi Bay. “Each waterslide in this groundbreaking complex tells a story about the Columbus Zoo's conservation efforts, starting with The Hive, the first waterslide in the world to feature dual helixes through towering beehives. Only at Zoombezi Bay can you experience unique and cutting-edge attractions while supporting local and global conservation efforts.”
