The water better have a just in time delivery system as it’d be heavy… Probably better off with ag-bots on that.
Now, what about escalators? …for the escalating part of the hike.
When do we get the escalator?
Why water slide? Seems a regular slide would be more practical in many ways.
Friction cooling.
i don’t know if they tore it down yet, but 30 years ago there was a great park a few towns over with a long cement downhill. don’t know what it was from, but if you brought cardboard you could slide down it without (usually) hurting yourself.
a regular slide would be more practical
