<p>A mobile and compact simulated-wave water ride attraction (100) is provided having one or more sluice slide-over covers (150) for ensuring the safety of riders in the absence of an extended transition surface or using a shortened transition surface. Advantageously, the ride attraction (100) comprises a plurality of transportable modules (211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 217, 218) and other associated components that can be shipped between sites using trucks, trains or other transportation means. The slide-over sluice cover (150) advantageously enables riders to safely slide over the sluice gate and/or injection nozzle (130) without risk of injury or interference with ride operation. The sluice cover (150) comprises a contoured flexible pad which covers and extends over the top surface of the sluice gate (130). A flexible tongue (160) is provided which is urged downward squeezing against the flow (138) and sealing the nozzle area off from possible injurious contact from a rider. The shape of the tongue (160) also provides a short transition surface over the top of which a rider can slide without injury. A padded fixed decking (190) is provided and in conjunction with the sluice cover (150) it allows the rider to perform a variety of new and exciting skimming/surfing tricks and maneuvers.</p> |
