Let’s face it, wedgies aren’t always associated with the funnest of times but all that is about to change. Gold Coast, get ready to get wedgied! Taking over the Fisherman’s Lawn at Broadwater Parklands from January 4 until February 3, The Big Wedgie is a giant (the world’s tallest, in fact) freestanding inflatable waterslide that promises a cracking good time. There are varying degrees of wedge, ranging from The Little Wedgie right through to The Big Wedgie and The Big Chucka for serious thrill-seekers – the slide stands a whopping 18.2-metres tall and is 82-terrifying-metres long with a thrilling 55-degree drop. So, in short, it’s not for the faint hearted.
