First-of-its-kind looping water slide planned for New Jersey water park

NEW JERSEY (WITI) -- A vertically looping roller coaster is nothing new, but imagine if it was a water slide! A New Jersey water park is now planning to install a 'Sky Caliber' in 2016.

The company behind the Sky Caliber is named 'Skyturtle Technologies' -- they posted a photo to Instagram stating a deal has been made to bring the Sky Caliber to the general public.





According to Skyturtle Technologies, the water slide is the first of its kind with a vertical loop. Riders travel at 50 mph down inside an 'ultra raft vehicle' equipped with a safety restraint, and travel through a 30-foot tall loop!
