Disney Introduces a Cruisin’ Water Coaster

Published November 19, 2009 by djsteen in Featured

Disney is basically another word for “fun”. You can experience movies made by Disney at theme parks like Disneyland (in California and Paris) and Walt Disney World (in Florida), and Tokyo Disney Resort (in Japan). These theme parks can make anyone feel like a kid.

There are many more products and services with the Disney brand on them, but one of the largest and most exciting ones is their line of cruise ships. Imagine how much fun a cruise is, and then add the Disney touch to it. Yeah, epic!

The Disney Cruise Line has been sailing since 1998. They currently have two ships (Disney Magic and Disney Wonder) in service and another two projected to set sail in 2011 (Disney Dream) and 2012 (Disney Fantasy). Both the ‘Dream‘ and ‘Fantasy‘ are larger than the current ships and they offer some giddy features!

Today’s video is about the water coaster (a.k.a. water slide) to be appearing on the Disney Dream. It’s called the AquaDuck and it can push riders forward at 20 feet per second thanks to powerful water jets. It takes you farther than the length of two football fields as it twists and turns on top of the ship. Oh, and there’s a drop that extends 4 decks of the ship. Have a look for yourself!
