I think a ride like a HUSS Jump 2 would be great, I always thought it could be themed to the womping Wilow out of Harry Potter. http://www.myvideo.de/watch/3529175/Jump2_...ark_Attractions I also always a ride like this would be awesome at MW, exactly same size and everything, just themed to a movie http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=6wjHqE-I78c&...feature=related

It's great to see Dreamworld adding another ride although as I said before we havn't ssen a thrill one since the claw, hardest thing about Nickelodean there always changing shows and soon enough one's out of date, I found this with Seaworld's Cartoon Network Beach, the rides were outdatted because the shows no longer existed and had been replaced, whereas Seaeme Street is easier, same for WBMW Looney Tunes is one theme and never get's old they have started playing them on Saturday again!!! Although I would like to see WBMW get more adult kids rides, like DW Spooty Spin, the swings, the new ride at DW!!! At the moment its all kids rides!!!

If your in the add, they generally give it to you!!! I was in an add, I won't mention which one but my grandmother wanted a copy, rang the company and they gave her as still picture of my face up close in the add, not sure if she got the video, she just explanned who she was and they were more than happy!!! You should defiantly call WVTP!!! -

When I was told what it was in early stages I was told one large jetski, that means aquatrax to me, then I was told like MDMC, which means that model to me so I'm pretty confused!!! Also I believe it is a October open there aiming for and the track and coaster is almost doena and ready to be shipped out. Also construction should start soon on what's replacing the Eye, its animal orientated and does sound awseome sure to attract the teens!!! There's other stuff but I will not release anymore!!! -

From what I've heard its a cutom layout, not a copy of Mick Doohan. WVTP know the problem of Mick Doohan and I'm pretty sure they won't repeat it, but you have to remember its a family thrill and WVTP will probably market it that why!!! There was a kid on a jetski! Its a dual launch as was mentioned so that means it will probably keep speed up!!! -
^ It was like that two weekends ago a sign said something along the lines of the train being refurbished.

I'm pretty sure I heard on the news he went back to the China zoo he came from!!!

It is being financed by WVTP and from the looks of the concept art it is exceptional!!!! I'm sure it will be kept up fantasticly as well, just look WVTP's now!!!! I took my nan and pop to MW the other weekend and they couldn't believe how well the park was kept up and immaculate it looked!!!

I went last Sunday, no problems what so ever, as far as i know!!! It looked to be running smoothly, I didn't ride it though!!! Rest of the family didn't want to ride it so I couldn't be bothered!!! Lines were pretty good!!! Only ride that was having a bad run was scooby!!! It was closed unitl 12:00 then opened, shut again for an hour opened and closed numerous times then had a good run for the last three hours, which meant lines for the ride never shorter then 30 mins, and got up 2 hours!!!

African Safari World: New Village Theme Park
Original replied to rosscoe's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Gazza also with those complaint letters, obiviously none of them have ever been to seaworld and seen how you can easily have animals and rides co-exist in the same park!!! The rides away from the animals, which is what seaworld does, not just the one on the GC one but the Orlando one as well, Busch gardens and the Melbourne one? Rides away from the animals. As far as i know the old rollercoaster at seaworld that's no longer there, near Ploar Bear Shores was taken away due to the bears not liking the noise and screams from it!!! So obivoulsy WVTP care about animals, Polar Bears Shores is one of the best enclosures for bears in the world, that's way we got Hudson and Nelson, Shark Bay biggest in the world, the dolphin enclosure, penguin and Pig (duegon) sorry about spelling!!! What about the conservation it does saving marine animals for nothing, they don't make a profit out of it!!! Nearly every show promotes animal conservation, and the Planet SOS!!! These people comments have backing WVTP care about their animals and want them to have the best in the world, and provide conservation messages to everyone in the park and at the same time people can get out and have some fun!!! But as long as the rides are put in the right location and for the Melbourne park, they are!!! -
This is not much of a help, but i went on wild west falls when it opened, this was such a long time ago and i was young at the time i can't remember what they talked about, but yes that room was a pre show room, if i remember rightly it was buffalo bill, talking about something on the wild west, then the doors would open and you would get ready to board!!! That's all I remember if someone else know's a little more!!! Another thing in the queue fow Wild west there's all that theming at the back of the station and because the ride never get's that busy, you miss, the staff make you bypass it!!! Personally I think you should walk past it, just to add to the theme it seems a waste of money not to!!! Just my opinon!!!

I found this for the seaworld in America it says it will have animal elements, didn't mattcrombie say that our ride would have animal elements!!! http://www.coasterforce.com/home/p2_articleid/552 It funny WVTP seem to be turning into them in Australia, the safari park the seaworld park the wet'n'wild park, animal parks!!! The only thing they don't seem to do is movie parks!!! Although I am little worried about how much money WVTP are spending and how quockly their expanding since thier theme parks are doing so well!!! New attractions on seaworld, wet'n'wild, movie world, The american water park, the NZ park, the safari park, Centro did this and look where they ended up!!! I know to keep people visiting you need new attractions, but maybe just hold off until the market returns!!! Still I can't wait to see this new ride, John Menzies has always done a fantastic job on all his rides!!! -
African Safari World: New Village Theme Park
Original replied to rosscoe's topic in Theme Park Discussion
This is really cool!!! But now all the theme parks won't be on the Gold Coast!!! DAMN!!! Anyway I think this is really great and I know WVTP CEO has always wanted an African Safari park!!! So guess his dream is coming true. I wonder if it will have different sections in it like Busch Gardens??? I hope it has B&M!!! They really proving to be the ultimate theme park company in Australia!!! Macquarie just can't keep up!!! -
I have to do work experience, I tried WVTP but they no longer offer it and have not for 18 months due to insurance issues!!! I am interested in business and marketing and was wondering if dreamworld offer anything like that and if it was worth it!!!

I have recieved some tickets to Warner Bros. Movie World or Sea World. Our family has decided to visit Movie World becasue my grand father has never been and we want to show him the stunt show before its gone!!! We have decided to go first sunday of the Queensland Easter holidays 6/04/08. I have two questions: 1. How busy will the park be for a day in the holidays, as we wish to go on all the rides and still have re-rides? 2. Will Police Academy Stunt show still be open? Thank-you!!!
-
Its just a wall I think between the load/unload, so they probably could fit this system in very easily i imagine!!!

I found this on the Vekoma website it looks like they have a new seating and train system which dosen't sound to bad and could be utilised on our ride http://www.vekoma.com/index.php?option=com...4&Itemid=16 From their website. Vekoma Rides has recently designed new trains with the new modular seat design, with a special integrated vest, replacing the over-the-shoulder restraint, for a secure, comfortable and unrestrained feeling. Independent steering wheel bogies were included to offer a smoother ride and to lessen wear to increase the ride’s durability.
-
That's weird, last two times I went it was two trains, with 45 minute wait, and no one in side car so we got to jump the line!!! I really think side car's entry should be earlier, oh well!!! The thing is with motocoaster is that the loading takes forever, people not knowing how to board, the slow process of the harness coming down, the harness doesn't always come down, they have to raise the harness to let someone take there shoes off, and if when they press go and its not all good it doesn't launch they have to walk up and down trying to figure out which seat it is and then having to take that person harness because they have to take off their shoes, the bag thing is done really quick!!! So therefore I think it could work on the motocoaster.
-
Why don't they just use the same system as dreamworld's motocoaster??? They still make money iff the lockers!!! And everyone stips complaining about paying just to ride once!!!

I know what's going in there!!! I have known for some time!!! But I have been under very, very, very strict instructions not to mention what it is!!! Probably the strictest ever, apart from superman, which I had no idea until track arrived then I was finally told!!! For this reason I will not say!!! Although from what I do know, which I think I can say, Hippo's are gone (which I think that was pretty clear to everyone with knowing there's a new ride coming and other people mentioning it), just not thrilling!!! Something will replace the Eye which is complelty gone now, but I can't say, at least I don't think I can!!! I don't know when its going in, but it should be good!!! I hear its good with teenagers and huge in the US marine parks!!! But as for water coaster, I don't if it will have water, but will somethiing completly diferent (never seen before) Don't know where its going or if they stopped what it is!!! But will be fun!!!! All I will say as well not from MACK and will be more thrilling than Motocoaster, mainly built to take on DW's new ride (motocoaster)!!! I was told this before christmas I don't know if anything has changed or different, so its only rumours, nothing confirmed!!! I also don't know if there not as strict anymore since then about it -
I am involved with IGA and they have the same system as other retailers, we have the sound system then a team comes in and puts a satellite on the roof and hooks it up to the amp, very much like Austar, it then plays all the latest music, but instead of ads from other companies we have our ads of weekly specials, community chest and how were local heros!!! I think if remember rightly, correct me if i'm wrong its subconcious advertising, were advertising, but the averge person doesn't realise it and just goes into their brain!!! Dreamworld do the same thing, with ads and that, but yes its a CD!!! I imagine its similar to wet'n'wild's which i hav seen, its clearly visible at guest relations, although its refurbished, one cd player with one hell of a lot of amp's. Also if you something like dreamworld radio listen to Sea fm they are the ones that give them the music!!! I assume this since they dreamworld radio, brought to you by sea fm!!! want wet'n'wild just listen to B105!!! Also if you have noticed each section has different music, Flowrider has different music to ocean parade, ocean parade is different to main entry, main entry is different to Gold rush, and gold rush is differnt Nickelodean and nikelodean is different to Wiggles World!!! So when you say dreamworld radio, which area? Also I much prefer wet'n'wild's music to dreamworld, they play newer stuff!!!! Just me though!!!
