Nice, fast, minimally themed flume ride but the constant safety announcements just destroy this ride. I thought I was in an OSHA convention, not Angel Falls. Once is enough Busch Gardens, four is overkill and unneeded. Great footage though.

Thank you. Yes, have to agree. The announcements are way too much! We were very close to editing them out, but then it wouldn't be an authentic POV.

The section after the first drop seems to have quite a high speed compared to other log flumes.

That was a Spillway Drop originally, which was supposed to have a little uphill section.

This classic ride has so much potential. The new paint job was a step in the right direction, now imagine a thematic upgrade with some music, props, a new themed queue, and maybe even some enclosed sections of the ride. They've had success making these kinds of upgrades to attractions at Adventure Island and Aquatica, why not do the same thing here and market it as a new ride?
@XtremeCoasters6 ай бұрын
They may well do at some point. Classic log flumes are becoming a rarity now, this is a great ride. We really enjoyed it 🙂

Rode the flume at BG Tampa many years ago, seems very similar but thought I recalled the final drop had a bridge crossing the bottom giving people the option to get soaked when the logs reached the bottom, I could be wrong though…😊

You're probably thinking of the bridge over the old Tidal Wave boat ride attraction? That'd be easy to mix up if it'd been a while!
