Power Surge was a shoot-the-chutes water attraction designed by Intamin located at Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio, Texas that opened with the park on March 14, 1992. In mid-July 2017, park officials announced that it would retire on July 23. Safety issues were not a factor in removing the ride. The ride closed permanently on July 23, 2017.
On August 3, 2017, it was announced that the ride would be replaced with a new roller coaster named Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster. It was the first single rail coaster built by Rocky Mountain Construction, and opened in May 2018. The support structure and other remnants of Power Surge can still be visible from its successor.
