The all-new themed area features two mega-slides never before seen in Australia - the Mammoth River Ride and Mammoth Falls.

The Mammoth River Ride features 4.5-metre-wide troughs winding over more than 200 metres of white water rapids and ridden in giant six-person tubes.

On the Mammoth Plunge, the rafts plunge down 80 metres over triple humps into a purpose-designed splash pool.

Guests launch into both slides from a mighty tower rising 18 metres above the ground � a similar height to Wet�n�Wild Water World�s existing Giant Speed Slide.

Combined, the massive new slides are two of the most thrilling six-person raft rides in the Southern Hemisphere.

Also open is the Speed Coaster � a double barreled dose of sheer adrenaline. Guests will take off on the ultimate downhill tandem toboggan slide before being launched upwards into an awesome zero-gravity experience.

The Speed Coaster is unique to Wet�n�Wild Water World and features innovations never before seen in water slide design.

Wet�n�Wild Water World General Manager Steve Peet said the award-winning water park had developed to a scale which would place it squarely in the top 10 water parks in the United States.

�But we�re certainly not resting on our laurels and we will keep developing and growing so that we provide the very best in world-class water park attractions and entertainment.

�As Wet�n�Wild Water World continues to grow in popularity, the new attractions will ensure we can keep up with the ever-growing demand during peak holiday periods,� Mr Peet said.

�Most importantly, the new attractions will broaden the appeal and awareness of Wet�n�Wild Water World, while also enhancing the strength of the Warner Village Theme Park Group in drawing new and repeat visitors to the Gold Coast, particularly through the 3 Park Super Pass � Australia�s premier theme park package.�

The new developments follow the creation of the Super 8 Aqua Racer in 1998, followed by the development of a new, themed front gate and the addition of Terror Canyon 2 in September 1999.
