Race down the river against family and friends on the all-new RiverRacers, the only side-by-side dual racing water coaster in Ohio, making its debut at Kings Island’s Soak City Water Park in Summer 2025.
Hold on tight! Riders board side-by-side rafts at the starting line where a conveyor belt launch sends them plunging down a 33-foot, 47-degree first drop. Giant windows help racers see if their raft is in the lead while the water coaster reaches its 30 mph, fastest speed. As each raft nears the bottom of the drop and starts to climb upward, water jets drench the riders and propel them up into an enclosed tunnel illuminated with special lighting effects. The race is on as racers zip through more twists and turns, rushing into an open-air, high-banking slingshot, whipping them around 180 degrees into a gravity-defying final mega drop to see who crosses the finish line first!
