Check Out The New Riptide Race Slide At Aquatica That’s Now Open

The Florida heat is back and that means its time to stay hydrated. The best way to do that is to just drink a lot of water. But the most FUN way to do that is to go to the water park. And thanks to our friends at Sea World’s Aquatica in Orlando I got to do just that. Plus I go to check out their brand new racing slide, Riptide Race. Its 68 feet high with dueling slides so you can race against your friends and family.

This is what it looks like at the top getting ready to launch. Special thanks to Aquatica Ambassador Tamara for showing me the ropes and keeping safe.

Here’s a POV video of the inside the slide itself.

And here are a few pics I snapped during the brief times I was dry enough to use my phone.

And another thanks to the Aquatica people for these sweet 80′s throwback shades!
