Carowinds, the regional amusement park that sits on the North Carolina-South Carolina stateline, is making a splash in 2027. Six Flags Entertainment Corporation has announced Rip Roarin’ Falls, a world-record-breaking super flume attraction.
“The new attraction combines the timeless appeal of traditional log flume rides with revolutionary thrills and immersive storytelling for a new generation of families and thrill-seekers,” a press release shared. One of the tallest water rides ever constructed, it will smash records and welcome the world’s first super flume mega drop at more than 100 feet. Other notable features include the tallest reverse camelback, tallest reverse drop and tallest log flume drop.

View this post on Instagram“This level of investment and innovation is a true testament of our team’s commitment to bringing legendary attractions and world-class experiences to the Carolinas,” shared Bridgette Bywater, Carowinds president. “As a new signature ride, it combines record-setting thrills and cutting-edge ride innovation—all with a 35-inch height requirement that makes it accessible for families. It’s the perfect addition, sure to create lasting memories for generations of guests.”
Exclusive to Carowinds, the ride will feature an original backstory: “Themed after an abandoned lumber mill, a place rumored to be haunted, guests board an eight-passenger boat and embark on a 6-minute, 30-second whimsical adventure. Two high-speed reversing switches change the direction of the boat twice, sending riders forward and backward through 2,240 feet of surging waters and down two record-setting drops. Rip Roarin’ Falls concludes with a 100-foot plunge, reaching speeds of 50 mph and an iconic splashdown. As guests complete their journey through the picturesque terrain, they are immersed in the mystery of the mill, encountering surprise after surprise. With a mix of coaster-like drops and water ride splashes, this one-of-a-kind attraction provides riders with a unique experience only available at Carowinds.”

At a duration of 6.5 minutes, Rip Roarin’ Falls will reach top speeds of 50 mph and climb over 100+ feet during the 2,240 foot long ride. It is currently under construction and will be on the same site of the former Rip Roarin’ Rapids attraction, a fan-favorite water ride that was retired in 2019. The new ride’s loading station was designed with the guest experience in mind and will have increased rider capacity, ultimately reducing wait times. The minimum height requirement is 35 inches when accompanied by a guest 16 years or older, and 41 inches when unaccompanied.
