Hello SFGAm World members.

This past Saturday I went to Magic Waters water park in Rockford, IL. It is fairly run down water park, but that didn't stop me from having fun! Anyway I only have on ride I wanna review so let's get on with it.

Splash Blaster: 4.5/5 Just an awesome water coaster. The airtime on this thing is insane. Definitely exceeded my expectations. Just an awesome water coaster. If people that are not from Rockford visit Magic Waters, it's because of Splash Blaster.

Anyway, now for some photos!

Image

I think we're here.

Image

Yep, we're definitely here. Unless this is just another weird ProSlide dream that I have.

Image

Entrance

Image

This weird mushroom thingy is the first thing you see when you walk in.

Image

O look, pretty slides! And an eatery themed to coconuts

Image

$7? Still a ripoff.

Image

This random mix mashup of slides is what I like to call the Rockfordian icon. Seriously, is there anything else in Rockford?

Image

Water coaster turnaroundness

Image

Pretty Proslide complex with pretty colors!

Image

No sketchy looking orange slide today :(

Image

More Rockford icon goodness.

Image

No wave pool today. I honestly didn't care since I'm not a wave pool person.

Image

Mandatory fake palm tress, and....

Image

MORE MANDATORY FAKE PALM TREES!

Image

Double Dare Drop slides, which limited my ability to breathe.

Image

Lazy river and Water play structure. Sorry, I don't have any more photos of it.

Image

Mandatory splash pad thingamajig.

Image

Lockers. woohoo.

Image

Lift hill shot.

Image

Double drop close up

Image

And, I end with this. Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed it!

Went there June 7th, 2006 and had fun on the Splashblaster.

All I remember is that the female lifeguards dressed however they wished so.
926 Coasters around the World! Countdown to 1000!

As a native of the area, the last decade has been a nice boon for Magic Waters. Being publicly owned is a tricky beast, but the Rockford Park District has done a nice job recently in adding attractions and keeping things nicer. The harsh winter caused some problems with the wave pool and body slides. But overall, Magic Waters has had a pretty good turnaround. It was an absolute hole in the late 90s.
