At an expo in Orlando, representatives showed off the “ships that will set sail” next summer on the viking-themed super flume water ride called “Draken Falls.” That will be coming to Adventureland in Altoona.  Each of the 10 viking ships seats six people in a three-row boat. Nordic theming will turn riders into vikings as they take on Draken Falls. Adventureland staff members say the new “Super Flume” ride features the biggest wave of any flume ride on the market, plus airtime and speed hill moments, hits 33mph.  Draken Falls is one of two new integrated rides manufactured by Zamperla for Adventureland in 2023. The 1,312-foot “Flying Viking” roller coaster will soar over, under and around Draken Falls.
