True to the motto “everything is bigger in Texas”, Tidal Surge will be the world’s tallest and fastest screaming swing featuring two pendulum-like arms that will soar progressively higher to a staggering height of 135 feet at its peak. The dueling arms will alternate sides and sway back-and-forth at 68 mph, creating multiple airtime moments that levitate guests out of their seats with each heart stopping swing. Riders’ legs will dangle and hang as they soar over the waterski lake and take in the beautiful views of the park, while reaching multiple negative G moments before plunging back towards the earth. Pass members will enjoy an exclusive preview of Tidal Surge on Saturday and Sunday, February 26 and 27, a week before the ride’s grand opening on March 5.
