Note that slide was an extreme one not your day to day waterpark slide
Could you just confirm for me that the new raft ride at TL ISNT classed as an extreme raft ride? Just managed to persuade our 8yr old to give it ago it november but that info is disturbing 😨

At Typhoon Lagoon? Misadventure Falls? No. It's really tame. Very similar to the family raft ride at Blizzard Beach.

Just to confirm it's $67 for adults and $62 for kids for a one day Volcano Bay ticket.

Not suggesting you go, just pointing out the price

The weight limits aren't too restrictive either to be fair
