fun-kit.net the search engine for leisure buyers log on to www.fun-kit.net & type the company name under ‘keyword search’ Arihant showcases its own park Founded 25 years ago, Arihant Industrial Corp is the largest Indian manufacturer of playgrounds, specialising in water slides and equipment for waterparks, to the extent that it owns and manages its own waterpark. Located in Virar, in central-western India, the Great Escape park covers more than 10 hectares – half with slides, pools and lagoons, all of which have been developed by Arihant. Specialising in themed attractions, the most sought after are Egyptian, jungle and pirates. These themes were incorporated into projects completed last year at JukuPark in Turku, Finland and in Qatar’s first waterpark, Aqua Park Doha. Arihant also supplied equipment to the largest outdoor water park in the UAE, Iceland Waterpark. fun-kit.net KEYWORD airhant Empex launches Aquacircus Empex Watertoys has created a new line of interactive Watertoys under the trademark Aquanetics. Children can produce sprays, water flows, and kinetic effects such as turning pelton wheels, spinners, gears and pinwheels to create “a zany effect of water motion”. Aquawizz, Aquanoodle, Aquaswirl and Aquamill are four new structures in the Aquanetics line. Incorporating several Aquanetics structures in a new expanded curvilinear Aquadek, Empex has created its latest concept, the Aquacircus, for Beachpark Waterpark in Fortaleza, Brazil. The 7,500 sq ft (700sq m) climb and slide structure provides a number of different slide experiences and 45 creative activities. Aimed at families with children up to the age of 12, Aquacircus includes Aquaclunes, which are spray clowns, and Empex’s signature Aquatons spray features. Designed as a modular system, it can be increased or decreased in size depending on the area available. Fabricated from composite and specialty plastics, Aquacircus offers a lifetime corrosion warranty. The structure has two main water feeds under the deck which are distributed to the different events on the play area. All features are controlled and moved by redirecting water flow. fun-kit.net KEYWORD empex Three new Body Rides from Australian Waterslides & Leisure fun-kit.net KEYWORD australian waterslides Australian Waterslides & Leisure Pty Ltd has designed three Body Rides for Tea Tree Gully Aquatic Centre in Adelaide. Two of the rides are 800mm-diametre tube and open Fast Straight Line Drop slides. The other is a combination of 1,200mm diameter tube and open Reversebanked SupaJet slide. On the straight line drop slides, riders are plunged down a 9m (30ft) drop at 45 degrees before landing into runouts. The rides have a minimal water delivery (20 to 30 litres per second) to lubricate the rides, making them faster as well as more environmentally friendly. The company wrote its own flume calculation software programme integrated with AutoCAD to enable safe and exciting configurations to be designed accurately and utilising 3D modelling. All rides can give a different experience for the riders – in the case of body rides, the ride experience can differ due to the type of swimmers the ride is carrying (giving a varied co-efficient between ride surface and the rider) also due to water volumes, and rider weight. All rides are designed so that the rides fall within the safety parameters of all variables. 78 Read Attractions Management online attractionsmanagement.com/digital AM 1 2011 ©cybertrek 2011
