Boulders break off from the caverns, but now it’s not water streaming from the walls, it’s lava! Riders then hurtle down a steep watery drop to safety. Later they encounter a volcano about to erupt. But guests are safe for a while as they travel through several jungle scenes. A massive block of ice dangles precariously overhead …and then comes sliding down, barely missing the boat. As the boats climb the lift, for example, blasts of water douse passengers from all around, signalling that the ice walls are giving way, and they are in danger of being swept up in a flood. The ride’s features are used to tell parts of the story. The ride system was supplied by Hopkins, part of the WhiteWater group, and comes complete with large 20-seater boats finished to look as though they have been carved from wood. The indoor flume ride at the heart of the experience invites Ancol guest to make a voyage with Sid’s Arctic Tours, where they are “guaranteed to get chills.” The journey is filled with animatronic characters, glaciers, geysers, waterfalls and other scenery, plus additional Ice Age multimedia content created especially for the attraction. Inspired by the hit animated films, Ice Age Arctic Adventure was realised in partnership with 20th Century Fox Consumer Products and iP2 Entertainment by Pure Imagination Studios of Los Angeles and ride manufacturers Hopkins and Zierer. The Indonesian amusement park Ancol launched a new Ice Age themed attraction last month, featuring an immersive flume ride.
