WATERBOM report

WARERBOM Report

December 1st, 2009, finally, I could have a chance to go to WATERBOM!It’s in the great location in the center of Kuta, the water leisure land. You might think that “Why do I want to go to the pool in the southern island?” but, actually, it’s fun!! There are many kinds of slider attractions, Euro Bungy, new spa, and interesting facilities, etc.! I took time from early morning to 3:00 pm for the report!☆

9:00 in the morning, Go to WATERBOM!

WATERBOM sign Entrance
I left my office at 8:30 am. I arrived there 9:00 am, just opening time of WATERBOM!
Shop Cute bathing suits
From the entrance, there is the shop on the right side. There are bathing suits, water-proof cameras, swimming rings, and some surfing brand. You can purchase the colorful and cute bathing suits from Rp.150,000〜.
You can get one on the day.
Reception counters Show your voucher
The reception counters are the left side. If you bring the voucher, show it here.
Charge money for attraction fees in the splash band WATERBOM has the prepaid system that you pay money for attraction fees in the counter and charge in the splash band. (Left picture)

In the park, you don’t use money but they take charge by reading barcode on your band. So, you don’t need to bring your valuables. You can charge at the counter or “TOP UP CORNER” in the park.
There are the balance check booths in the park, so you can check the money balance. If you use up all balance, you need to charge again. So that you have to go back to take your wallet, but it might be annoying. I recommend you to charge enough money on it at first. Of course, you can get refund that you didn’t use in the park.

I charged Rp.100,000 at first. The deposit for the band is Rp.5,000 so I have Rp.95,000 for attraction fees now. Is it too short?
Balance check booth
Changing room Rental towel
Anyways, I have to change my clothes! Rental towel is Rp.10,000. But, they take deposit Rp.60,000, so I alrealy use Rp.70,000 and my balance is Rp.25,000 now.
The deposit will be refunded when I return the towel, but I feel like I already used up my money!
Lockers Locker fees are Big:Rp.30,000, Small:Rp.20,000 Deposit is Rp.30,000.

Lockers on the picture are small ones. I already have no money on my band, so I asked T-Manager to pay from his band.
Ladies’ Dressing Room Men’s Dressing Room
This is the ladies’ dressing room, shower room, and bathroom. It’s big room and clean! Men’s dressing room is also big. This picture is taken by T-Manager not me. (Just for excuse…)
Shower room WC
Private shower room. It’s clean and it has both hot and cold water. Beautiful WC, isn’t it!
Charge counter WATERBOM mascot
Finish preparing, I bring Rp.200,000 to the charge counter. It’s better to charge about Rp.300,000 at first. WATERBOM has the original mascot. I met her when she walked around.
Campaign roulette Now on the campaign!
Answer the questionnaire, and you can try the roulette which you may get the free entrance ticket or presents. They continue this campaign throughout this year. Okay, I try!!

BAD LUCK!!

It’s time to try Attractions!!

Lazy River (Screaming Scale:★☆☆☆☆)
Tyr easy one first, we go to Lazy River! So called “Lazy,” it is the slow floating pool. We just drift on the yellow swimming rings. One round takes 5 to 10 min. Personally, I want to keep drifting forever.

Aiko drifting Lazy River
Jungle Ride (Screaming Scale:★★☆☆☆)
Single ride slider, Jungle Ride! Sliding down through green trees, and turning many times on the way. At first, I was scared and shouted, but I could get used to the sliding speed soon. Even, I could take pictures by my water-proof camera! It’s nice attraction.♪

3 Big Slider in WATERBOM!
3 Slider
【Smash Down】 The number 1 screaming slider! Sliding down the maximum 60 degrees steep slope with 70 km/h speeding.
【Boggie Ride】 Sliding down by laying down on the sheet on yellow lanes. There are 2 lanes so you can compete with somebody.
【Race Track】 Competing sliding speed by using 2 lanes. High degrees of steep slope.

I climb up stairs of 90 steps and arrive at the top. It’s nice view from higher place, but if I think about sliding from here, I become blue. The sliding slope is higher steep than I expected!! Ohhh, I want to go back… Before you try sliders, please check this.

【Notice for Sliders】
・Prohibited to wear jeans pants.
・Cannot wear glasses or sun glasses during the ride. Slide taking off and holding them on hands.
・Cannot slide wearing pants and T-shirt with metals.
・Children are limited who have heights below 112 cm.

Smash Down (Screaming Scale:★★★★★)
This is really scary. I cannot see the ground if I look down from the starting place of sliding…as falling into the bottomless pit. One after another, brave challengers fall down in the hole, and I hear their screaming voice… I was thinking that I don’t want to try, I want to go back, however, my turn is coming. Moreover, they said that I cannot wear jeans short pants that I wear top of bathing suits, and I take off my pants there. Please remember that you cannot wear jeans-cloth bathing suits. I hold my short pants, and I fall down without thinking anything! After a moment of darkness, suddenly I fly out to the brightness, “Help me!!!! …”
It’s too steep slope and I cannot see the bottom!! With spray, I just fall down in 3 seconds… I couldn’t think anything. I don’t want to try, I never try it again.

Boggie Ride (Screaming Scale:★★☆☆☆)
Buggy Ride is the yellow lane. This one starts from lower point than Smash Down, so you feel easy and enjoy the attraction! We have to bring a light sponge-like blue sheet from the down stair. This attraction also prohibits wearing jeans pants, so I take off it at the starting point and let’s go! My face wet by spray, but it’s fun to slide alone, and you can enjoy competing with friends.

Race Track (Screaming Scale:★★★★☆)
Race Track starts from lower place than Smash Down, but as you see, it’s high steep slope! The scariest point is the starting point, but there are 2 waving places on the way and my body almost flies forward. I competed with T-Manager, and the result is, I lose… Maybe, it’s because weight differences? If you want to try the fastest speed sliding, lie on your back and cross your arms in front of chest.
Race Track 1 Race Track 2
Super Popular! 2 Big Attractions
It locates in east part of the park, Boomerang & Super Bowl. They are the popular water attractions that are different taste than sliders! As you see in the picture, everybody is on line bringing the single ride or the double ride boats.
Boomerang & Super Bowl
Super Bowl (Screaming Scale:★★★☆☆)
From the starting point, throughout falling down on the dark tunnel and go into the bowl-shape slider!! 2 round…, 3 round…, rounding in the bowl, and at the end, falling down to outside from the hole in the center. I felt thrill when I went into the first tunnel, but after that it was really enjoyable attraction. Maybe, the double ride rounds many times with weight?
Super Bowl 1 Super Bowl 3
Super Bowl 2
Boomerang (Screaming Scale:★★★★★)
I thought Boomerang is scary as same as Smash Down… At the beginning, floating 8-round shape slide, and falling down to the schuss slope at a stretch, and then, going into such a high boomerang movement!! It wouldn’t be overturned in such degrees?! It wouldn’t be flied out?! It slides really high so I felt the strong weightlessness of falling down. If you seek farther height, you had better try the double ride with man…

Cannot miss Options!

Euro Bungy (Screaming Scale:★★★★★) Rp.60,000
Euro Bungy: Wearing harness Euro Bungy 2
Euro Bungy 1
Yes, this one! I have been interested in Euro Bungy. (Rp.60,000/ 5 min.) How is the feeling to jump up to such height!! I’m so exciting! I wear the harness and hold ropes on both sides, and jump up! When I try… yeah, it’s really high! The bounding impact is big!!
While I’m jumping in lower place, it’s just fun and I can turn back round easily with bending my knees. I feel good when I jump, however, as jumping higher… I couldn’t stand the strong weightlessness of falling down. Finish taking pictures, I just quit, “I’m done!!”

… Like this, this is the strong impact attraction. But it’s rare attraction and the price is very cheap, Rp.60,000! I strongly recommend that you try it once.
Water Blaster (Screaming Scale:☆☆☆☆☆) Rp.30,000
Water Blaster 1 Water Blaster 2
Water Blaster: water balloons
This is not screaming attraction, Water Blaster. (Rp.30,000 for 2 persons) Each person has a bucket with water balloons and uses the lubber band to throw the water balloon to each other. If the balloon hits the button in the right way, the water fall down from top of the opponent and make getting wet. This game is popular among tourists coming from abroad.
Wall Climbing (Tiredness Scale:★★★★☆) Rp.30,000
Wall Climbing 1 Wall Climbing 2
Wall Climbing, wearing harness
The last attraction is Wall Climbing. (Rp.30,000) T-Manager supposed to try this attraction, however, he was told that they have weight limit of over 80 kg persons. He gave up, and I tried it instead of him… You see my tired face on the picture, but please forgive me.

I wear the harness covers whole body, and I climbing up from the mattress without wearing shoes. The sunshine side of the wall is heated and too hot to grab, so I tried the shadow side of the wall. If I could reach the top, I can blow the trumpet so I just tried, but I couldn’t reach. It’s easy to go down, I just rely on the wire without grabbing the wall.

Enjoy enough Attractions, Take a Rest…

Refund Drink Banana Lassi
I’m too tired and almost die. I cannot move anymore!!
So, we take a rest. I drink banana lassi (Rp.25,000) with rest of my money in the band. It’s light taste, good!
Pool Bar
Finally, I reached the pool. I worked hard, so it’s okay to enjoy there, right? The depth is about 1 to 1.5 m, and I could enjoy the resort atmosphere with short number of people. Oh, I want to drink!
Sun chairs Aiko lies down on the sun chair
There are many sun chairs all over the park. It must be nice time to get suntan and read books on such a green grass. I tried to take a nap to hide from T-Manager, but I was found and we went back to the office… I will come here again on my holiday!! Today’s report is over, thank you very much!

The first visiting to WATERBOM. My conclusion is, it’s really really fun, even I’m thinking about visiting next time!! I thought that WATERBOM has many screaming attractions for active persons only. When I visited, they have many other attractions such as the floating pool (Lazy River), Pool Bar, and Gazebo, etc. besides Smash Down and Boomerang for screaming attraction lovers. You can enjoy WATERBOM in many ways!

In addition, it locates in the center of Kuta, so you can enjoy shopping in Discovery Mall and Legian Street with applying the cheapest WATERBOM entrance voucher plan.
■Approximate Taxi fee■
From Nusa Dua: Rp.80,000 Kuta: Rp.20,000 Seminyak: Rp.50,000 Sanur: Rp.60,000
You have to remember that you had better bring enough money because you need to pay more than you expected; for rental towel, rental locker, food, and spa, etc. Moreover, about attractions other than Lazy River, children who don’t have height over 112 cm cannot try, or you cannot wear glasses, sunglasses, jeans-cloth bathing suits!

Next time, I want to rent a gazebo in quiet area, and enjoy swimming in the pool, drinking beer, and taking a nap until evening. You can enjoy whole day in WATERBOM. Please go there with your family, couples, and friends!!

★Screaming Attraction “Climax” will open soon in April 2010!!
Right now, WATERBOM is building a brand new attraction in Asia! As the name of the attraction, it sounds very scary and thrilling. You slide a straight line slider within the capsule, and you make one full turn… Stay on tune!!
