FlowRider champ tests out FlowRider on Quantum of the Seas
Everything on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas needs to be tested and that includes the FlowRider surf simulator. FlowRider employee and flowboarding legend Sean Silveira, who is a five time world champion, went aboard to put the final touches on the ride and train the sport staff on the wave.
“It was fun training with the sport staff; they are a great group of individuals who were stoked on riding,” Silveira said.
Royal Caribbean has had a long-term relationship with FlowRider, having brought the simulators onboard its cruise ships since the Freedom class of ships.
“Customer Intimacy is is not just two words – it is a mindset throughout our organization and one concept that we live day in and day out” explained FlowRider COO Marshall Myrman. “We want to create the best experience for not only our customers, but also our clients customers, and everyone else associated with our value chain” added Myrman.
"Having Sean onboard the ship provided a great opportunity for their staff to get excellent hands on training and catch a glimpse of world class riding. It is important for the attraction staff to be knowledgeable and experience the thrill of the wave, so they can better relay the experience to guests."
Quantum of the Seas will feature the FlowRider Double, which is the most popular FlowRider.
