The Tidal Wave was a boat-based shoot-the-chutes water ride located in the Illinois section of Six Flags St. Louis in Eureka, Missouri. It opened on May 10, 1991.
The ride used 20-person boats and had a 50-foot waterfall that ended in a basin with 300,000 gallons of water, creating a wall of water 20 feet high and 80 feet wide.[1]
Tidal Wave was demolished in December 2019 after being closed for the entire 2019 season. The ride last operated in 2018.
