I went on them about one month ago, They're OK but nothing special, Not a long wait and you can choose either enclosed or not.

Yep its still called Whitewater mountain mate, I saw today its just an added name to that section in general.

I went on them about 2-3 weeks ago. They're alot of fun!

Are they faster than the previous slides?

They're A little faster than the previous slides and have a less wide track.

I must be weird but I liked the older slides better, Twice I have gone down them and it would have a rather moderate start then no water would come down for like 3 seconds and I would stop completely then a rush of water slowly pushed me down. I wish they had put the mountain back up but I found it funny that there are still drips in the line area.

I think you would find those drips were caused by the pipes of Terror Canyon above, not the mountain (which I believe from memory was made of a foam mesh). The problem with the mountain may have been that it was aging, it had started to grow moss in some areas and guests had ripped it off in some sections. It basically left a bad impression as the park had been severely updated and that didn't fit in with the new look. At least, this is what I presumed. Ultimately, it still is a mountain... the mountain represents the big hill which was a man made hill when the slides were first constructed.
