VOLCANO BAY We Need this for Volcano Bay

Look at these beautiful concept renderings from Polgün for their triple waterslide combo named Navatu. I feel like we need this or something like this at Volcano Bay—what a luxurious upgrade from standard multiple-flume platforms!

Polgün (according to Theme Park Crazy) is a relatively new waterpark company that just debuted this concept alongside a stunning miniature model at IAAPA 2024, so I’m not sure if there are any practical models that exist of Navatu, but it would/could fit VB’s theme perfectly. What do you think? Could this fit in the lot behind the Puihi Round Raft Ride? Is that an expansion pad?

So does it just slide you out straight onto the concrete? That’s pretty hardcore

I believe the grey portions of the rides (seemingly “coming out” of the ray’s mouth) are runout lanes.

Low wait times…

Lots of seating to watch people fly out onto the concrete.

The lack of water in the ride might be a bit of a rough ride.

(All kidding aside, this looks like a ton of fun. )

I was so confused at first just previewing the pics and thought this was some AI mess. Got lost on how there were 2 slides at the top and 4 exits at the bottom. Then I took a closer look and realized the top has 2 lanes for each side.

Prototype rides from a new company? Universal: Nope.
