Abstract

See full text

The invention is a water amusement ride, comprising at least one water vehicle, which can be moved in a body of water and which comprises seats for accommodating passengers. A platform is provided, which extends out of the water surface in an idle state of the water amusement ride and is beneath the water surface in an operating state, and a platform carrier is provided, which lifts the platform out of the water surface in the idle state. According to the invention, the platform carrier and/or the platform comprises at least one floating body. The switch to the idle state (and possibly also back to the operating state) can be completed more quickly and with lower force and energy consumption in comparison with a traditional water amusement ride.
