6 SAFETY & INNOVATION PATENTED, SAFER RIDE SURFACE Ever wonder why acrobats use nets under their trapeze rather than foam pads? They want to keep their craniums intact! FlowRiders patented ride surface mirrors that technology and is the cornerstone of our success as it puts the rider s safety first. No foam on the planet can catch you like a tensioned fabric or inflatable structure. We are so confident in our design that we conducted G-Force testing to prove it. NOZZLE FLAP PROTECTION With recent improvements to the design and manufacturing process, our nozzle flaps are more durable and better looking than ever. Our nozzle flap is operated by a patented system that immediately closes when the ride turns off. If the ride is shut down while someone is riding, the rider simply glides up over the top. While it may seem like a simple concept, this proprietary system allows for better viewing by guests and most importantly, enhances rider safety by eliminating the risk of a rider coming in contact with the nozzle itself. TWO-GUEST RIDE DIVIDER The patented FlowRider Flow Fence divider is a soft air-cushioned fence that allows you to safely deploy two riders at a time on the FlowRider Double and WaveOz. If a guest runs into the floating divider while riding, it simply absorbs the motion and gently moves out of the way allowing riders to ease back into the main riding area. This new technology is easy to install, extremely safe, and is preferred by riders globally. PAGE 6
