Water Park

The 27 metre tall tower is an impressive structure. The top of the tower will be the starting point for the Kaboom! Master Blaster slides.

The slide components need to be installed in a particular order based on how cranes can access the site. Generally this means the lowest sections of slide are installed before those above it.

There are different sizes of pumps for different purposes. Some will pump the main supply of water to the top of the 27 metre tower, some will supply water to Kaboom's uphill sections while some will provide water to the water effects in H2Oasis.

The assembly process includes bolting together the prefabricated fibreglass sections, waterproofing the joints. Despite different parts being manufactured in different factories, the process is time consuming but seamless.
