Soaky Mountain Waterpark Building Dueling Water Coaster for 2022

Soaky Mountain Waterpark, located in Tennessee, will be adding a unique water roller coaster in 2022 named The Edge.  To be more specific, the park is actually adding a pair of dueling water roller coasters, not just one!

The Edge is appropriately named because it sits high up on the border of the water park, and will really tower over the nearby attractions.  Created by Whitewater, The Edge will fuse together the company's popular water roller coaster with their Boomerango slide ending.  Riders will start from a 70 foot tower and the two slides stay close to one another in layout for most of the path.  After a large three story first drop riders will encounter both enclosed and open sections of downhill and uphill slide.

Toward the end of the ride the paths split somewhat and pass through another enclosed section that features aqualucent sections that create a plethora of colors as riders slide by.  Suddenly the rafts plunge down another large hill and then climb up onto a giant half pipe which gives them air-time at the peak.  The rafts then slide back down, over a gentle air-time hill, and end the attraction.

The end of the slide even features lights and other effects to announce which of the paths completed the course the fastest.  Soaky Mountain Waterpark will also increase its lounge space in 2022 with 1,000 more chairs, and will add large umbrellas throughout the park for additional shade.
