Concept Wiegand Maelzer SlideWheel

[AIR]

This is... extremely unique. Chimelong Water Park announced the world's first intallation of this. Could we possibly see one of these in Williamsburg or is the capacity too terrible? Would it even be a good fit? It just caught my eye as something really awesome.

The capacity looks pretty slow. I really can't see it as a likely candidate for WCUSA. It looks more like a Great Wolf category slide based on the video.

I'd hate for it to break down and you be trapped inside, you can't really climb out if the motor stops running.

Besides the terrible capacity, It really doesn't look like a lot of fun.

I don't wanna be swinging back and forth in a water slide tube while it rotates. The pacing looks awful.

And as Shane pointed out, what are the evacuation procedures if that thing breaks down?
