Favorite Water Ride

[mantaguy]

Which wet and wild ride splashes you the most?

It's a tough choice, but I'm voting for Dudley. It has a great theme and I always have to duck on the drop!

This was a close race between Dudley and JPRA for me but in the end, I have to give it to JPRA. The theming is what makes this ride so great.While Dudley's is good, it doesn't beat floating through a river and seeing dinosaurs up close.

I've gotten off JP completely dry several times. I get somewhat wet on Dudley, but every single time I go on Popeye I come off absoloutely drenched.

 

[mantaguy]

This dosn't have to be how wet you get, jut which one is your favorite.

It was a very close decision between Jurassic Park and Dudley Do Right, but in the end I chose the River Adventure simply because the ride played a big role in my childhood.

I was in awe for this ride when I was 10. And it only strengthened my love for the movies. The ride itself is classic. As soon as everything goes wrong in the ride...it gets fun.

JPRA hands down, great effects, has a "flowing" story, and

who can't be terrified by the T-Rex at the end?

Bluto's, by far. No matter where I sit, I always end up leaving the ride soaked. I love the detail on the ride as well.

Gotta give it to Popeye. It was very close but I just don't really think of Splash as a water ride but more of a timeless disney dark ride with a thrill. To me it is about as much of a water ride as Pirates is.

Popeye is the best rapids raft ride ever built in quanity of gags, quality of gags and theming. The thing goes into the lagoon and back out again and just when you think it is over there is another gag around the corner. Also things like the animated figures below Me Ship, The Olive and Me Ship the Olive itself give it some amazing atmosphere.

Aww, Atlantis is getting no love! Even though it's kind of old, it's still a good ride and has the best and most surprising ending of any of the Orlando water rides,

when it suddenly plunges down the roller coaster element and makes a final big splash. I always underestimate the speed of that drop whenever I go on!

If only they'd fix some of the effects...

 

[Splatter]

If Atlantis would of had all of its effects going like it did in its opening year including the story elements in the queue like it used to have. It would of honestly been my number one without a doubt. A once amazing ride.

Love Atlantis, but long live P&B barges!

Jurassic Park River Adventure takes the cake for me. That or Duddley.

 

[talfonso]

Popeye & Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges - I like the ending when Bluto gets hung out to dry when Popeye defeats him! It seems as if we're pottys!

 

[TheDecemberists]

Popeye all the way. That is THE best rapids ride I have ever been on.

 

[dolphan4ever410]

i would say journey to atlantis because it tells u the story of atlantis....AWESOME...plus it is part roller coaster too...but dudley do rights comesin to a close second place

 

[Claire-Bear]

Popeye is so much fun! Love it haha and it's a very friendly ride - all sympathising with complete strangers as they get drenched!

 

[gecko]

Jurassic Park! hands down. Although I like the cali version better just because of the crashing JP Van. That's my most memorable scene of the film for me. Singapore's version sounds incredible withe the rafts in the dark and the elevator, can't wait to see some videos of this.

 

[Kraken&Manta]

I love Journey To Atlantis, nice story, great ride, and you don't get wet (unless you sit in the front).

 

[universal chris]

JP river adventure for me.

Ripsaw Falls by a hair, love the drop at the end. IOA has my top 3 with Atlantis next.
