Ever wondered what it feels like to soar off the edge of a cliff? Extinction is not just a theme park ride; it’s an adrenaline-pumping, heart-thumping adventure you’ll never forget. Picture this – the wind rushing past your face, the English Channel sprawled beneath you, and your stomach somersaulting as you’re swung 18 metres into the sky. If you’ve got the guts, take on the full 360-degree swing, or for a bit less drama (but still heaps of fun), opt for the 180-degree version.
This one’s not for the faint-hearted. But if you’ve got a taste for thrills and the nerve to back it up, Extinction will have you walking away saying, "That was EPIC!" Whether you’re a daredevil craving a white-knuckle ride or just looking to test your courage, this is the ultimate bucket-list experience for thrill-seekers.

Whether you're a thrill-seeker or just wondering what it feels like to defy gravity, Evolution promises an experience like no other.
Step aboard Shipwrecked if you dare, and hold on tight for a wild, topsy-turvy adventure! Imagine the creak of wooden beams as a great ship battles monstrous waves and swirling tides.

It’s adrenaline, laughter, and “oh-my-goodness-I-can’t-stop-screaming” fun rolled into one epic ride.
Are you ready to climb to the top and take the plunge? At Waterforce, you’re in for an exhilarating ride like no other.
