Good thing it’s supposed to warm up by the weekend! Darien Lake is set to open their latest water slide.

The RipCurl Racer opens to the public on Saturday, May 21st following a preview party the day before for special season pass holders.

The $1.5 million water ride launches six mat-riding competitors headfirst through side-by-side tunnels and then into separate racing lanes. The full ride only takes 24 seconds, but it’s 24 seconds of speed, compression and zero gravity moments.
