I don't like Hurricane Harbor, but Tornado's pretty cool. I just don't like how they brake you so much after you come out of the tunnel and go up into the funnel. Other than that, it's cool.
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu

Well, i haven't been on much here, but Skull Island and Wahoo Racers is always where I find myself chillin. Oh, and I have yet to be on our Tornado, but if it's anything like Zinga at Holiday World, I love that as well!

Tornado and Wahoo Racers are my favorites. The last few times I've gone on the Wahoo Racers, I just wanted to go on it over and over again! I would've if there weren't so many stairs to walk up. Going up a lot of stairs really tires out my legs! Anyway, my other favorites are the toilet bowls, and the speed slides.

Yea, im not a big fan of HH either, but its a nice place to go with peeps and my girlfriend. If i had to choose a fav., it be riptide(that the purple body slide if you didnt know :wink: ) and in second would be either paradise plunge(the blue body slide) or vortex (the green toilet bowl.)
YEA!!!! THREE MONTHS TO GO!!!!!!!

Hurricane Mountain

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

:lol: . You know what I mean. The water coming out of the tunnel goes one way and the water in the funnel flows the opposite direction. Good one though :D

I've only been on Wahoo Racers and those were pretty fun, although blinding, the water just sprays in your eyes the whole time, I'd rather see what place I'm in then just be blindsighted the whole time.

However I've been on the Tornado (it's actually Hurricane there) at the Wilderness, and it was awsome with a full raft. But it was weird though 'cause the best part seemed to be the little tunnel after funnel. We just banked insanely for some reason in that part. It was great.

So my vote is for the Tornado.

^ I got to ride that one, too. I liked how you couldn't see inside the funnel until you were actually in it. You could only hear the screams coming from within and then the people shooting out at the begining of the line. Plus, the little dip and turn at the end rocked.

Wahoo Racers to begin with.

The bowl slides. The tornado. The Bahama Mama and Bubba Tubba. The innertube ride to adjust to water temperatures.

The steel drum music in the background to give you the Carribbean feel.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.

So, yeah...this one time....back in 05.... I rode one of the big tube ride things and the water was like all cold 'n stuff... and the lifegaurd gal was all like "it's heated" and I'm like "heated with what? ice?" Ha.

I'm funny.

What were we talking about?

Oh yeah, I didn't like Wahoo Racers when I went on it for the first and last time a couple months ago. Too much water in face....couldn't breath.
