Personally I would have preferred to see a lap style restraint system for DD. I have already mentioned this in my initial review, however believe it to be overlooked at the time. I have ridden a few times since and find the ride is quite restrictive for people of height and /or size.. As a tall and bigger build guy, I found the extremely bulky restraints to be too constricting, pressing quite firmly on my shoulders with a bizarre seat belt clasp over the top of the harness - an odd design indeed. I found it to be even more restrictive than DW's Claw and suggest a Test Seat be made available to prospective Riders.
I am in total aggreance with Coomera on the ride experience - it really needs to be faster, or at least offer a greater thrill version at times throughout the day. Surely it is capable of doing such.. right? For the millions of dollars spent on it I would hate to see MW missing the opportunity of running it for maximum thrills. Sugar coat all you like but you only need to see the lack of screams and nil wait to ride for yourself to know that the ride is not being publicly received as well as it perhaps should be.
My other big concern is how the new area will stand the test of time for sustainability and durability. Without a hell of a lot of ongoing maintenance to most of the interactions, I imagine that they risk showing signs of weather and deteration quickly. I hope that a large portion of the wristband revenue will go favourably in the direction of Technical Services in upkeeping the overall presentation.
Please don't get me wrong, I really, really enjoy the new area. And the ride. It truly is world class and for sure, adds so much to the Park. My biggest concern, perhaps much like Justice League is that Doomsday Destroyer and the Villains area just feel to be missing the mark in some parts. With a few simple tweaks here and there, I believe it could truly be the Home Run it deserves to be.
