Canada: ProSlide and Show Canada Industries Announce Partnership

Ottawa, Canada-based water ride and attractions manufacturer ProSlide Technology and Montréal-based Show Canada Industries, which is a fully integrated company for turnkey entertainment, scenic and specialized architecture projects, today announced their continued collaboration in form of a new partnership to elevate interactive waterpark experiences to new heights. The ProSlide-RideHOUSE® “Svalgurok” – the main attraction in the all-new outdoor area of Europa-Park’s Rulantica water world, which opened this summer (see EAP 5/2021) – was already realized by the two companies in collaboration. The structure includes gargantuan sea creatures seamlessly integrated into Rulantica’s mythologically inspired theming. Additionally, Svalgurok features an interactive, robotic element that enabled the head on Svalgur (the structure’s giant sea serpent) to move and spray up many litres of water per minute, with the ability to be controlled by the guests below. In the future, other water attractions and experiences with further innovative features will be created by the two companies.

“We couldn’t be more excited to continue our incredible work with the phenomenal team of designers, artists, sculptors, engineers, blacksmiths and other specialized craftspeople at Show Canada. The results of this partnership will create some of the most incredibly imaginative and innovative water ride attractions the world has ever seen and we can't wait for guests to experience them,” says ProSlide President and COO Dave Rozon.

“After the incredible success of Svalgurok at Rulantica, we’re eager to continue our relationship and bring Show Canada’s creativity to even more of ProSlide’s amazing clients around the world,” comments Jean Labadie, Show Canada’s President and CEO. The project portfolio of the company includes work for the Sochi and Rio Olympic Games and collaborations with Cirque du Solei, amongst others. (eap)
