Meteor The Ride / UAE
The design intent was to create a custom ride with a finale that featured a harrowing 90-degree vertical drop that plunged down into a swirling vortex of water. The ride was situated in the park’s central lagoon so that it would be visible to everyone in the park.
The ride queue was designed to meander through Mythic Mountain, an adjacent faux rock mountain structure. Once inside, guests would discover that they had stumbled upon a hidden secret palace filled with ancient artifacts.
This gravity defying rollercoaster experience was created as the marquee attraction for a proposed branded theme park in Dubai.
A thrilling plunge into the abyss .....
