Master Blaster water coasters

Robocoaster's avatar
Outside of Schlitterbahn in Texas, there is one at the Golfland-Sunsplash in California. Anyone know if and where there are others? Are they worth a trip?
I think that they are great, I have ridden the one at Golfland-Sunsplash here in Rooseville, it is really a lot of fun! Being shot back up the hill!
Umm, I'm not sure what the name is, but theres one in Northern IL, up near rockford.  I think it's at Magic Springs or something...

NRH20, a small city-owned water park in North Richland Hills, TX, has one called the Green Extreme.  I haven't been back to the park since it opened.  Its a really nice park, but it is small and is usually very crowded.  NRH20 is about 20 minutes from SFOT and Hurricane Harbor.
I know this sounds stupid but what exactly is a master blaster water coaster?
Delgroso Park in PA has stated that in phase 2 of thier waterpark they will get one.  Nobody really knows when that will be though.

Basically, a Master Blaster is a water slide with high speed water jets that push the rafts up hills.
Here is a link showing a couple pics and a drawing of Spash Blaster at Magic Waters just outside of Rockford, Ill.

They are.  And I believe they are a spin off from the owners of Schlitterbahn.
There is one at Golfland in Mesa, Arizona
Its the same waterpark in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure that Napoleon was going down all the slides......Waterloops

Rode hard and put up
wet. Aint down but i cant get up yet. Its a long ride back to the way i want to feel.

The Beach across from PKI has a slide that goes uphill, though I don't know if it's the same manufacturer.

ebskoot:  the park in "Bill and Ted" is called Waterloo in the movie.  Get it?  That's how they figure out that Napoleon would go there!

You can't spell "dishonorable" without "honorable."

There have been 12-15 Master Blaster water coaster/transoportation systems built in the USA.  Naming, well, that's your job :) .
One opened at Raging Waters
They are also building one at an indoor waterpark in Anchorage, Alaska. I will try and get a link ASAP.

I live about 5 minutes away from Golfland Sunsplash in Roseville and I love the Master Blaster. You really lose your stomach on that first drop even though its not that big. One of the best slides there!

I thought the same thing about the MasterBlaster at Sunsplash. You really do lose your stomach on the drop. It was pretty fun, but I haven't been on it in more than a year.

Hey MarineWorldFreak, just out of curiosity, where in Roseville do you live? I'm over on the edge of civilization by the mall.

You are right, The Beach water park does have a water slide that goes up-hill.  It also features the "de-watering" system like on Master Blaster models.  It does NOT have jets though.

Dmb- crush, I don't live in Roseville. I live in Rocklin, which is the city bordering Roseville. I live right over by the college.

I think when I said "I live about 5 minutes away from Golfand Sunsplash IN ROSEVILLE, you thought I meant I live in Roseville, but the "in roseville" thingy, I meant that that's where the park is. :)

I heard a long time ago that COP was suppose to get a Master Blaster for Soak City.....Is this True?
