Journey sequence

PowerSplash can have a rotating platform at the station. If this is available, the carriage is rotated out of the station onto the actual rail. If the platform is not available, this procedure is not necessary. The car is then shot backwards using a 2000 HP LSM and drives a slightly longer straight backwards and up a first 45 m high vertical tower. Due to the not yet reached top speed, the car does not make it to the top and the tower moves forward back down again. In the area of ​​the station or rotating platform, the car is accelerated further and moves up the second, vertical tower. It also rolls back and is accelerated once more in front of the station or rotating platform, this time to the top speed of 100 km / h. As a result, the car now also creates the height of the first tower. During the time the car is on the first tower, the section below the tower is flooded with water. After the car has come down this tower, it drives through the rail flooded with water and it comes to the splashdown known for water roller coasters . This also brakes the car.

Trains

PowerSplash has one or two individual cars. Each carriage can seat 20 people (five rows of four people).
