FlowRider (surfing simulator)

Wonder OTS has one FlowRider (RCI's signature surf simulator) located aft-portside.

Pumps project high-speed water (20-30 mph / 30-50 kph) across a small area creating sheet waves (stationary waves) to simulate ocean surfing. FlowRiders were first created as land-based facilities and were implemented by Royal Caribbean for guests to enjoy traditional surfing and skimboarding on cruise ships.

Royal Caribbean's FlowRiders are complimentary (cruise fare inclusive) and reservations are not required. Equipment (bodyboards and flowboards) is provided.

Private surfing lessons are available for booking at an additional cost per person. Groups are 6 to 8 guests.

The FlowRider's minimum height restrictions are 52 inches/132 cm (to use the bodyboard) and 58 inches/147 cm (to use the flowboard). Not allowed are footwear, goggles, go-pro cams.

Guests can surf at the simulator until they fall off the board. The facility is supervised by sports staff (safety, assistance, advice).

Lido Deck is the entry-level. The launch area is located all the way aft (accessible via stairs near Wipeout Cafe) and features a see-through glass platform. Guests take a mat and slide all the way down to the Boardwalk - twisting and turning in a serpentine-like movement. The dry slide ends at the AquaTheatre's pool on deck 6 (aft).

Ultimate Abyss is a spiraling slide with 2 separate cylinders (symmetric to each other, each tube is 2,6 ft / 0,8 m in diameter) made of stainless steel and colored in purple. This is a vertical drop slide located in the Sports Zone's pool (aft-ship location).

The facility is complimentary and advance reservations are not required. The experience starts with a walk across a plank into the jaws of an anglerfish and boarding one of the specially designed mats. Slide mats are colored in black, each with an opening for the feet and a strap to hold on to. Follows the vertical drop (27-degree) some 92 ft / 28 m down to the Boardwalk.

The average sliding time (from the top to the bottom) is 12-13 sec. To avoid injuries (arm and leg burns during the ride) keep the legs straight and elbows in.
