News: Six Flags Fiesta Texas to add three new water rides

By Aaron

Jan. 18th, 2006 -- As part of an effort to make the park more family friendly, Six Flags Fiesta Texas is adding three new water rides and a children's play area for the 2006 season.

The park will construct a 50-foot-high waterslide called Big Bender, a six-lane speed slide named Hill Country Racer, and a ride called Whirlpool that will swish riders around a 40-foot-diameter bowl before dropping them into a corkscrew chute. The new play area will be called Splashwater Springs and will feature a pirate ship, squirting palm trees, and a slide.

SF Fiesta Texas will also redesign the waterpark's entry plaza and add a store called Beach Bum Surf Co. The waterpark will reopen May 6.
