Volcano Express is a ProSlide mat racer water slide[1] located at Wet'n'Wild Hawaii, Kapolei, Hawaii, USA.[2] It was formerly known as the "Island Racer" from 2009 to 2017.

History

Volcano Express originally opened on May 25, 2002.[3] When the park rebranded to Wet'n'Wild Hawaii, the ride received a major makeover, replacing the first two drops with an enclosed helix and drop. It reopened as the Island Racer in June 13, 2009.[4] It was renamed back to Volcano Express at some point in 2017.[5]
