Six Flags to Add Water Racer to Hurricane Harbor and Nighttime Parade in Theme Park
ST. LOUIS, (SLFP.com) - For the fifth consecutive year, Six Flags St. Louis will bring its guests new and exciting thrills as the park cements its position as the premier "daycation" destination in the Midwest.

This season, Hurricane Harbor will celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2009 by expanding the water park to add the exciting Wahoo Racer and the theme park is set to amaze guests with an unparalleled spectacular nighttime parade, Glow in the Park.

This six-lane water racer features a triple drop layout that provides maximum speed and airtime. Riders will race head-first on sled-type mats down 262-feet of steep drops and rolls reaching speeds of 35-mph. Wahoo Racer will be designed and built by the award winning manufacturer of water attractions, ProSlide. The new water attraction will be located between The Big Kahuna and the Speed Slide complex in Hurricane Harbor and is scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend 2009.

In 2009, Six Flags St. Louis will take its daily parade over the top and leave guests in awe with the introduction of a nighttime parade, Glow in the Park. This unparalleled nighttime spectacular will feature six custom-designed floats, two additional mobile units, 65 light-adorned performers and 35 support staff and technicians. Floats will light up the night with vibrant, multicolored lights illuminating the streets and fill the air with specially arranged cirque-style music. Drummers, puppeteers, singers, dancers and kinetic stilt walkers will surround the floats making the Glow in the Park parade unlike any other in the Midwest.

The theme park opened its 2000 season with THE BOSS, one of the top 10 wooden roller coasters in the country. Riders experience 50% airtime in a double-down double-drop of 150-feet. The ride comprises three more drops of 112-ft., 103-ft and 72-ft and a series of "airtime" rabbit hops. Maximum speed is 66.3 mph with a G force of 3.

In 2008, the park introduced Evel Knievel, a 2,700-ft. ride experience that begins with an 80-ft. first drop at a 90° left turn angle, which is answered with a 55-ft. double down drop. Sixteen hills follow with camelbacks, a 40-ft. fan curve and multiple high-banked turns at up to 67° angles.

Six Flags St. Louis has additional roller coasters including The Screamin' Eagle (3,872-ft wood), Batman The Ride (steel), Mr Freeze (steel), Ninja-The Black Belt of Coasters (steel) and The River King Mine Train (steel track/wood structure).

Hurricane Harbor, is a 12-acre tropical paradise. Set among 20,000 tropical plants including palm trees and a volcano, the water park features 1,500 tons of sand and 1.2-million gallons of fun with six water attractions. A series of four brightly colored tube slides offer guests a watery trip down their choice of partially or totally enclosed 400-ft. twisting tubes from 5-stores high.
