Meet Wasserbahn Racers: Schlitterbahn New Braunfel’s New High-Speed Mat Racing Slide for 2026

Crafted for fierce-yet-friendly competition, Wasserbahn Racers is a three-lane, face‑first mat racing slide designed to turn friends and families into rival racers. You’ll launch headfirst down a sleek new course featuring dips, chutes, and momentum‑building drops—all ending in a classic Schlitterbahn splashdown.

The attraction is built right into the park’s natural hillside overlooking the Comal River, blending seamlessly into the Hill Country terrain. So not only do you get a fast ride—you get a beautiful view on your way down.

Schlitterbahn teamed up with WhiteWater, one of the biggest names in water attraction design, to bring this high‑speed concept to life. Their signature style? Smart engineering, smooth transitions, and just the right amount of “whoa, did we really just go that fast?”

Wasserbahn Racers delivers all of that—and then some.
