Dudley Do Right’s Ripsaw Falls

 Yet another fun-filled water ride, Dudley Do Right is another sure fire way to soak you to the bone. Easy to find, Ripsaw Falls is pleasantly placed in Toon Lagoon in Universal’s Islands of Adventure. You’re up for a wacky ride as Dudley goes on yet another mission to save the damsel in distress (Nell Fenwick) from the evil Snidley Whiplash.

            As you get wait in line, there are plenty of things to keep you entertained. You can hear the people already on the ride go rushing above your head or when you get inside you can listen to the animals talking to you on the wall. When its your turn, you’ll step inside your ‘log’ and watch a short clip of Dudley Do Right so you know the story behind the ride. Each log seats 5 people comfortably, so you can experience the ride with the whole family.

            The ride has three main parts or drops where you are sure to get wet. As you travel through a mine and lumber mill you’ll see that Dudley continues to race after his crush Nell on his Horse. Eventually the final 75 foot drop comes where you shoot through an exploding mine shack! In the end, everyone’s favorite Canadian Mountie saves the girl, but you’ll come to find that he doesn’t quite win here heart because she is more interested in his Horse.

            I absolutely love this ride. The line really seems to fly by with how fast people are sent off on their adventure. But when it comes down to it, this is sure fun for the whole family and will certainly cool you off if you decide to come on a hot summer day. From the line area with its gag posters to the final drop, Ripsaw Falls is one of the best rides in Universal’s Islands of Adventure. Hang on though, because this is one wild ride.
