The details: The waterpark and its parent company, Six Flags Entertainment Corp., will be opening a new ride called Wasserbahn Racers on May 2, according to a news release.

The ride will feature three face-first water slides, which will pit riders head-to-head in a timed drop to see who can get to the bottom fastest, said Cyle Perez, regional manager of public relations of Six Flags Fiesta Texas.
