A favorite among Waturi children, Punga Racers send single riders on a body slide down four lanes through underwater sea caves. Among Waturi children, one of the best-loved legendary heroes is Punga, the playful son of Tangaroa, god of the sea, and Mahuika, goddess of fire. Maximum Weight 300 lb (136 kg) Minimum Height 42" (106 cm)
