ProSlide manufactured the new King Khajuna toboggan for PortAventura theme park in Salou, Spain, as part of its Costa Caribe Aquatic Park expansion.

The King Khajuna is a 12-storey high toboggan of 333.7 ft (31m) with a 55-degree descent at a speed of six metres per second.

It also supplied the new Ciclon Tropical, a 215ft (20m) high multi bump slide with two steep drops and Rapid Race, a new a six-lane toboggan for both children and adults. Visitors lie on a mat and splash down a range of steep falls.

The aquatic park expansion, which is part of PortAventura’s 70m euro (£59.9m, UD$90.3m) development strategy to become the best European family holiday destination, cost 11.6m euro (£10m, UD$15.6m). It includes an additional 14,000sq m (150,695 sq ft) of new facilities suitable for a variety of ages.

The re-opening of the 50,000sq m (538,196sq ft) water park kicked off the 2013 season and included a display from Spain’s national ladies synchronised swimming team. Sychronised swimmer Paula Klamburg was the first to try out King Khajuna and said it was, “an indescribable sensation.”

The aquatic park now incorporates 16 attractions and slides, 8,500sq m (91,493sq ft) of water, and 5,000sq m (53,820sq ft) of green areas with more than 50 species of plants and palms of the Caribbean and a new snack bar.
