What's in a name? Well, pretty much everything when referring to the newest water slide set to debut at Elitch Gardens this season. After dropping from a six-story tower, riders will reach speeds of up to 40 mph on the way down, making it pretty clear to understand why the theme park is calling their newly built slide the Mega Wedgie. This extreme water ride is actually three slides in one, and is the eighth new attraction in the last six years to come to Denver's amusement park.

Elitch's opens for the 2017 season on April 29. Before you try the real Mega Wedgie this summer, take a virtual ride here (no towel needed):
