Sometime during the summer this water slide went from two riders to single rider, and they started weighing everyone before they could ride.

Any idea what happened? I’ve only ridden it once with my son before the change and I felt like we were going to fly out the top! :)

How are they weighing people?

They have a 4x4 metal scale at right before you grab your tube and you stand on it in front of a ride attendant and there’s a light - either green or red - if you’re okay given the 250 lb limit.

I think the they are doing this because at exit the wall on that first slight turn might of had some manufacturing issues, I could be completely wrong, also, I asked an elployee why it was not open and he said some people were getting injured on it.
