Last saturday I went to the press opening of the new ride at bobbejaanland! This ride (named banana battle) and is a splash battle type ride! But what is a splash battle actually? Well it is an interactive water ride! In this type of ride you board a boat with 3 friends and you each get a water cannon! With that cannon you can shoot different targets along the sides of the ride. Or…. you can shoot the other riders! As you probably notice that last is for most of the people the most attractive to do! This means that you will be soaked when leaving the ride! Now back to the banana battle! The banana battle is themed to an amazone river with lot’s of monkeys, snakes, ruins, vines,…. This covers the first (small) part of the ride! From the moment you leave this part prepare to be soaked! Cause then you enter the battle zone! Here you will find several up close encounters with the other riders! Off course because it was a press opening we saw several belgian celebrities! Among them were DJ COONE ( wich I had a water fight with!), Jacky Lafon, some Miss Belgian Beauty contestants and Sien from a belgian tv show! We also got some snacks and a banana to put our phones in! Well next saturday I’ll be back at Bobbejaanland and this time I will bring extra clothes for sure! Underneath you’ll find a video of me when I just got out of the ride!
Write to you later!
