Abstract
A method and apparatus for initiating a thrill-seeking ride from a raised access platform, the ride having a water slide descending at a predetermined angle with respect to the platform and wherein the slide has a support or 'riding' surface located along a predetermined plane. According to the method, the rider is placed in a substantially erect position within a housing while the housing is located at a first position on the raised access platform. The housing has at least a back and a releasable bottom. Thereafter, the housing with the rider therein is extended from the first position on the raised access platform to a second position wherein the back of the housing is substantially aligned with the predetermined plane of the slide support surface. The bottom of the housing is then released to drop the rider onto the water slide.
