Thrill seekers face historic 100-foot drop on amusement park’s newest water ride

A planned water ride that promises multiple world records is already making waves among theme park fans. Carowinds announced that Rip Roarin' Falls will open in 2027 — replacing Rip Roarin' Rapids, a longtime water attraction that closed in 2019. The new ride will feature a 100-foot drop, making it the tallest drop on a water ride or log flume, according to the park, which is located in Charlotte on the North Carolina-South Carolina border.
