Riding the log flume amidst rain & hail, then the ride breaks down - Rainbow's End 2023

We had a fun day at Rainbow's End (an amusment park in Auckland, New Zealand), but the highlight was probably getting caught in the cold rain then eventually hail, before the ride was stopped due to a senser no longer working. But the sensor was wiped clean and the ride continued. A fun day overall!

Well, that was definitely a ride to remember. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

Actually looks more fun with rain and hail compared to without it

Riding a log flume in the rain forest??😂😂

[@andreicampbell6299]

Omg that looks so fun in the hail. I've done this in a thunderstorm and it was freaky

[@heavenburke]

Shouldn’t be running in thunderstorms

[@andreicampbell6299]

​@@heavenburke I was already on when I started. It was closed when I finished the ride

Poor Reuben had no head cover. Please monitor and check for signs of head injury.

The last time I went on that (about 3 weeks ago) me and my friend went on the same log/raft and when we were going down the big drop at the end we were screaming since it was her first time haha its very scary

Why was a water ride open during thunderstorms? In any case, the theming is incredible and the hail added to it!

[@nzlotrfan]

@@bradye21playsIndieHorror it's just Auckland for you, perfectly sunny one moment, then thunderstorms the next. But yeah pretty neat!

[@NESTABROWN9]

Oh dear, this?!!... That's no good to ride continue done like this... Because of bad weather down poor rain. Why are they still going to running the business to open the theme park is could bad weather like THIS? Why weren't try to cancelled those rides theme park isn't? But that is... Just absolutely mad that running gonna be worst, the weather is going to be damp in here!! 😧

Glad you had a good time and shared with us. 👍🏻🍻😎

Think y'all should have brought rain ponchos to put on top of your coats, oh wow this is crazy weather

[@heavenburke]

This ride should not have been running if it was hailing

[@jonnym4670]

[@LaurenceBembo]
