English term or phrase: pulse-pounding
Hi!
I´m translating a Web page of a water park, the Hidropark, and in a part it says:
"Experience the pulse-pounding Kamikaze and foam waterslides or splash in the wave pool"

What does "pulse-pounding" mean? I think that Kamikaze is the name of the game.

Thanks!

palpitante


Explanation:
mi sugerencia; sí, entiendo que Kamikaze es el nombre de la atracción y definir la experiencia como "palpitante", para relacionarla con "pulse", me parece lo más adecuado

Explanation:

Según, al menos, el actual texto en inglés (traducido con grados variables de éxito...), de la página de hidro park Alcudia, el Kamikaze es el nombre de uno de sus toboganes...

trepidante


Explanation:
trepidante o emocionante, aunque la traducción no sea literal porque palpitante por si solo no tiene ese significado, sería con el corazón palpitante.
