Check out this insane Dubai aquapark skate session

See Milton Martinez, Alex Sorgente and Jan Hoffmann make dreams come true shredding a waterpark.

Aquaventure, Atlantis The Palm Dubai's waterpark, closes down for one full day every year so the maintenance guys can give it a once over. This time around, they were gracious enough to allow this squad of Alex Sorgente, Milton Martinez, and Jan Hoffmann to charge around the rides all day while the slides were dry.
Once the plug was pulled on Zoomerango and Aquaconda (currently the biggest waterslide anywhere on the globe), the boys got stuck in without hesitation, and after a couple of nervous first licks, the sessions flipped the switch to full on.
Edu Munoz was on hand to capture this once in a lifetime skate session on some of the world's biggest and most treacherous natural transitions, complete with seams, sprinklers, fallaways, and a good number of heart-stoppers. This is insane terrain, for one night only, for the boys to go big or go home.
