Riptide Rescue: Escape From Amity - Attraction Concept & Storyline: Thorpe Park Red Alert! After 25 years of battening down the hatches in Amity Cove, Sheriff O'Hanlon is sending in the rescue team as a new storm brews on the horizon.
Riptide Rescue: Escape From Amity combines nostalgia with excitement in this brand-new adventure, as an extension of the existing Tidal Wave / Amity Cove storyline at Thorpe Park. This thrilling experience utilises the brand new MACK rides ‘Rocking Boat’ ride system - a hybrid boat ride / rollercoaster. This unique ride system allows the boat to navigate a variety of movements, including swaying, accelerating, going backwards, and executing sharp turns for near misses both on the ground and in water. Fully immersed in this adventure, townsfolk embark on an exhilarating roller-coaster rescue mission, encountering numerous interactive features that showcase the town’s struggle against the rising tides. Boarding the rescue boats equipped with safety gear, emergency supplies and radio, the townsfolk are guided by the Sheriff himself, who urges everyone to evacuate. The atmosphere is tense as radio static crackles; another wave is on its way, and this rescue mission becomes a matter of urgency. Townsfolk race through the streets of Amity Cove, dodging debris, crashing waves, and bursting through iconic town scenes such as the WWTP Radio Studio! The atmosphere shifts as the water level rises dramatically, and the townsfolk plunge backward as if they have been swept away by the tides. The boat then spirals upward, giving the townsfolk a thrilling view of the surrounding area before plummeting back down into the chaos! Emerging from the heart of the cove into Amity Speedway, they navigate a series of hairpin turns as the boat picks up speed, racing towards safety.
Buckle up and get ready to embark on this heart-pounding adventure!
