I rode it today. The whole drive to the island I'm telling my kids how fly we rode back in the day (I'm 43)...I was talking non-stop (partial bragging and excitement). That slide took a look at me in front of my kids... prolly will never ride that beast again.
It was in the center area of the island last time I noticed it. Not sure if that has changed. I'll be down there this week to bike or kayak.. I'll look for it. I hope it wasn't removed. I'd like to ride it again one day. 😊
I hung out today on Belle Isle and a few other riverfront parks (posting video now) and the giant slide is still there in the center of the island. The area doesn't seem to bring used or maintained which is a bummer as the slide is really cool. I heard the State has a lot of projects going on on the island. I guess I hope that don't abandon the slide. The island is gearing up now for the Grand Prix this weekend so only about a third of the island is easily accessible for now.
