After 20 years in use and over 25 million landings, this ride has lost none of its attraction and unique fascination for the young and old alike. The rider accelerates up to 40 km/h, in a the free fall of up to 6 metres and the splashy – but not wet – landing guarantees many repetitions. The weatherproof, sturdy and sophisticated technology of the NAUTIC-JET allows it to be used not only in leisure parks and on (swimming) lakes, but also in areas subject to extreme weather such as snowmaking reservoirs and alpine water adventure worlds.
The theme park attractions provided by Sunkid are not only found in large amusement parks worldwide, such as all LEGOLANDS, but also in smaller theme parks. Of all these parks, we chose to present Sobri Jóska adventure and theme park in Kislőd, Hungary here. This park, named after the notorious and daring Hungarian robber from the 19th century, lies between Györ and Lake Balaton.
The landing pool for the Sunkid Nautic Jet, installed last summer, was integrated into the lake near the shore. And not only riders can enjoy the fun experience of this ride - which is the only one of its kind in the world. Observers can also enjoy the show with a close-up view. For this reason, the terrace seats at the restaurants on the nearby island are particularly popular, providing the best view of the landing pool for the Sunkid Nautic Jet.
