The Rocking Boat, developed by Mack Rides and first installed at Futuroscope as Mission Bermudes, is a highly innovative water ride that simulates the dynamic motion of a real boat navigating turbulent waters. The patented ride system allows the upper floating body to move independently, creating a realistic rocking and rafting effect without visible channel walls, enhancing immersion

Modern attractions have reached ultra-high visual impact—with advanced LED, projection mapping, and elaborate scenic design—yet sound often remains the weak link. Traditional systems struggle to deliver precise localization and consistent clarity, especially in complex spaces and moving ride vehicles. Guests may see where the action is happening, but the sound rarely matches that level of definition.
EDC Acoustics’ Volumetric Wave Field Synthesis (VWFS) solves this challenge by placing the sound field within the audience or ride car, creating true 3D-localized audio that perfectly aligns with the visual storytelling.
VWFS loudspeaker modules can be seamlessly integrated into ride vehicles, architectural elements, seating, ceilings, or even floors, allowing designers to create immersive audio experiences without compromising sightlines or theming. Advanced phase and delay algorithms synchronize every speaker in the environment, delivering near-field precision, consistent SPL, and ultra-low latency that stays locked to visuals—even in
motion.
VWFS integrates seamlessly into both fixed audience spaces and mobile ride platforms, blending onboard and offboard audio without loss of clarity. It scales effortlessly—from intimate theaters and dark rides to stadium-sized installations—while reducing noise bleed into surrounding areas through precise energy control.
The result: every seat becomes the best seat, every ride car its own immersive soundstage, and every guest hears the story with the same impact they see.

A groundbreaking ride, Wall Runner introduces the world’s first lateral drifting experience on a water slide. Its artfully crafted arcs will capture visitors’ attention the minute they spot it in a water park’s skyline. This billboard attraction combines everything guests love: speed, drops, highbanking turns—and adds sensational lateral G thrills.
Keeping a high speed throughout the ride, the raft climbs up each arc and swings to the next, accelerating over sideways. Wall Runner maximizes the oscillations while having the momentum of moving forward. It is as fun to ride as it is to watch.
As impressive as Wall Runner looks, it is a curved element that can be incorporated into many different slide paths; you just need a curved drop in the opposite direction before and a curved drop in the opposite direction after. It is a very versatile feature that can be added to a fusion slide.
Thanks to the way the parts are split, Wall Runner also allows for fun and colorful designs, enabling each park to customize the arcs with different gradients, patterns, or themes befitting of its brand or storyline.
Wall Runner’s versatility is also demonstrated through its ability to adapt the ride experience to different demographics. It is an all-round attraction that can feel daring and at the same time, family friendly. For example, a group of six young adults’ combined weight would result in the raft travelling faster than a raft with two adults and two children.
The Wave is a monumental inflatable slide that redefines aquatic fun and visual impact. Standing at approximately 5 meters / 16,4 feet tall with an impressive 15-meter / 49,2 feet slide length, it features a dynamic wave-shaped profile that extends the ride and enhances excitement. Riders can slide in multiple positions, shifting and changing direction as they go, creating a uniquely social and interactive experience. Thanks to its modular three-piece construction, the Wave can be set up in around two hours, either as a standalone attraction or seamlessly connected to an existing Wibit SportsPark. Its iconic shape and impressive scale make it a natural highlight for any venue, transforming locations into unforgettable destinations. Fully compliant with DIN EN ISO 25649 safety standards and TÜV certified, the Wave is not just about thrill – it’s about
safe, unforgettable fun.
The big new thing is the extreme lauch experience. Its a fusion of the roller coaster technology and a waterslide.
Benefits are the sensation that has not been realized on a water attraction yet plus the higly attractive visual that also non-riders enjoy.
Here the Slide Coaster launch mechanism propuls the riders up a ramp into two 600ft long waterslide tubes with a diameter of 6ft. Guests then race through a series of daylight effects, changing colours and parts with a clear top until they are landing softly in the lazy river with a splash.
The river then moves the boats back to a conveyer that offers a comfortable exit of the boats for the guests.
