English term or phrase: flume rides
Termen "Log Flume" er en slags vandrutschebane i "træstammer", hvor man kører ned ad nogle kanaler, og gerne ender med at blive gennemblødt for enden... Så jeg ved egentlig godt hvad det er. Men hvad hedder sådan en på dansk, til forskel fra almindelige vandrutschebaner (hvor man glider ned på numsen).

Vandrutschebaner


Explanation:
Banen på Bakken hedder faktisk en "Vandrutschebane". Jeg tror at de andre baner bare hedder "vandbaner".

Vandslædebane


Explanation:
This kind of ride works on the same principles as a normal sled. Although the idea for the ride came from industrial Log Flumes (wikied it), the physics are the same as a down hill sled; gravity pulls the water and the sled down hill.

flodtur


Explanation:
Med en flodtur er der taler om brusende/fossende flod, vandfald, tur i træstammer, kanoer o.s.v. ligesom i engelsk med en "log flume ride".

A "flodtur" could, but doesn't have to be a slide or timber ride.
