All three slides join up for the final curve at the bottom of the hill.

After speeding down the hill this is where you splashed down into a pool of water hopefully slowing to a stop.

Next to the splashdown pool is Wet Willy's pump house that also served as a billboard for it.

From what I have read on the internet the reason Wet Willy's closed down was not competition from Six Flags new water park but because of this splash pool. Supposedly someone came down the speed slide too fast and the splashdown pool wasn't big enough to slow them down and they slammed into the stairs head first and passing away as a result of the injuries.
