How I feel about the community sometimes.

OurAusworlds. Cool.

If you look closely at this photo (Posted by Theme Parks All in One), between each seat, and on the front Ros railing there is something rectangular that is fitted. Could this be on board cameras for Fast Video? As I haven't seen a ride photo camera anywhere around the track.

http://www.afr.com/real-estate/village-roadshow-to-sell-gold-coast-theme-parks-20170907-gycuih Sale and leaseback of the Oxenford freehold land, including the studios. Potential sale price of $100m, funds to go towards debt reduction. Initial 30 year lease. Village will still operate the parks. Bait title courtesy of AFR.

40 years, so enjoy Sea World while you still can.

It's just a way to free up some cash, it doesn't have any bearing on the park itself. The lease-back would no doubt have the option for further renewals past the 30 years. I think it's good, allows them to get debt down which is important for the bottom line and it makes it easier to invest in more attractions in the future.

Don't know what your definition of decent length is and I'm not sure if you have seen these but, I enjoy watching Dreams to Screams Specifically the ones of Fury 325 & Gatekeeper.

Other than whatever shitstorm it was, why do you think I left that group chat you made ages ago? Haha. -------------- I'd have to say my favourite video has been the making of Tatsu documentary. Found that really interesting. Know of any other decent length "making of" theme park documentaries?

Think AFR think why would they invest hundreds of millions of dollars on top golf and DC Rivals only to sell a few months later.

It's not a driving range though. Yeah, you can hit golf balls, but it's designed more as a game than just driving golf balls. Throw in bars and restaurants, it's a place you can spend hours at, vs just hitting bucket balls.

@Luke @themagician thx guys kids measure up just gotta convince the misses now 👍 Both kids are 138cm 😂 We will be up there from the 16th see to oct 9 😁

Other Mack coasters such as Helix @ Liseberg, Blue Fire @ Europa Park and Alpina Blitz @ Nigloland all have a 130cm height restriction. All those coasters feature the same train/seat/harness design as DC Rivals. 👍

Just curious if anyone knows or have found out a height restriction for rivals yet??.... I know it was brought up before but just though I would touch base on the subject again 👍

I'm going to the US in late September and I'll be in Orlando early October, I can't wait to see the photos and thoughts you have on it before I go and experience it myself.

Ah ok, that makes a lot of sense now in context. That's actually really great that Luna Park is supporting Mathew and helping him live out his dreams, and it's of great to see someone so young who has an interest in Luna Park and the theme park industry in general. Apologies to Mathew and @Nimble, hope to see him working there someday soon!! As for the upcoming Flying Carousel, I do agree that the Zierer models look better, however the Zamperla model is a solid choice. The Zamperla rides are cheap (or cheaper than other models), have great capacity and very reliable.

You mean like the ride being finished before the launch? There's a scoop!
