Watch the video here: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/waterparksmena_slidewheel-at-qetaifan-island-north-activity-6907239186710327296-u6Ue/The SlideWheel® lighting is now operational at Qetaifan Island North! Are you brave enough to try the world’s first and only rotating water slide?
Taking a nod from the park’s Icon Tower, the SlideWheel® was built on top of a building to generate more thrills per inch as guests are propelled forwards and backwards on a twisting journey.
In Qatar, currently, so I went to check out the site as close as I could. The tower is massive and photos really don’t do it justice.
On the Project Website it says that the project would take 20 months. The oldest construction pics I can see in this thread are from August 2020, so if we take 20 months further, we would have an opening in April 2022.
However: On one hand, I don't know if 20 months is the construction time, or if it includes planning phase as well. In that case a slightly earlier opening could be possible.
On the other hand: I wouldn't be surprised if there are delays in the project, causing it to open later.
I guess if you go there in the summer of 2022, it will be open.
