http://web.archive.o..._main_page.html This it?

I doubt it given the construction photos uploaded by dodge on the previous page. Sounded more like a Rockin' Tug to me.

Even if it is a Sky Fly, why specifically the TMNT model? Isn't that identical to Flying Ninjago, the only other Sky Fly in existence?

Some updates... 1. An animation for Outlaw Run has been released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRW3k-EEXGA 2. Transformers: The Ride is going to Universal Studios Florida with construction already well underway with an opening scheduled for the middle of next year. 3. Knott's Berry Farm is adding a couple of new rides next year. Details are here. Unfortunately for Knotts fans the headliner is a wild mouse not the long-rumoured giga.

There is only an entry for each park. The "World Pass Entry" that you are referring to is an internal gate for use once you are inside either park. With any world pass you should be able to approach either Dreamworld or WhiteWater World's main entry and get in.

There's already been a bit of discussion about Wet'n'Wild Las Vegas

Despite what is pictured in the video, the official website seems to indicate otherwise:

Sudden Impact were involved with the Saw and Nightmare on Elm Street mazes for the 2009 event but I am pretty sure everything else has been handled in-house.

That is Green Lantern's queue... http://www.parkz.com...rn_Coaster.html

Technically Cloverleaf is ProSlide technology so it would be extremely unlikely that it would be on a WhiteWater West ride. The raft will most likely be like that below.

From today's Gold Coast Bulletin:

Wet'n'Wild has been downsizing the Dive 'n' Movies for years so I am not particularly surprised its been removed. I recall a fair few years ago now (around the time when Terror Canyon was still operating), the movies would be run every Saturday from September through to April with them running every night in the peak summer period. If I remember correctly, they only ran them for a couple of weeks last year.

Based on the shape of the site, I doubt a conveyor would fit. You'd have to cut over the body slides and somehow through the ziplines. Also, correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Terror Canyon have a separate path to the body slides anyway? I believe you can see remnants of it running alongside the body slides' path near the top of the hill in the image below.

From the official website's ticketing tab: The Herald Sun has reported that annual passes would be for sale from $79.99.

Further to my last post: [*]it seems the investment in the park has gone from $80 million to $115 million [*]the Skycoaster I mentioned will be a double Skycoaster and will be the world's tallest which would place it 90m+ high [*]there is also a FlowRider

That video appears to show a lot more than what was originally in the plans. There looks to be a Skycoaster; Wet'n'Wild Jr-style area; a cross between a ProSlide Octopus and Kraken Racer; four AquaLoops instead of two, a standard Boomerango, a Bowling Alley and a Tantrum as well as some extra stuff which was in the original plans. Hopefully things like the Dueling Master Blasters are still in their final plans.

The information is now on the full website - http://movieworld.myfun.com.au/fright-nights.aspx . Except the dates, it is the same information that was on the development site for the past week or so. http://movieworld.my...ght-nights.aspx

Six Flags have just announced all their stuff for 2013. All the attractions are listed at http://content.sixflags.com/newfor2013. Highlights would probably include Full Throttle and Iron Rattler.

Overnight, California's Great America announced Gold Striker, a GCI woodie... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3doDAoOtMsU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJlkI-XH46I

Sorry for not mentioning that. Some more photos of it are available here as well as an edited POV

A Family Constrictor that opened recently overseas features these rafts... ...so more like Mammoth Falls.

So financial results for 2011-2012 have recently been released and I thought I'd make this topic as a stub for discussion when future results are released as well. Ardent Leisure on the whole improved but the theme park division suffered immensely. Revenue dropped 7.7% as a result of a 21.8% drop in attendance. The company blames this on the rainfall that the coast has received during the holiday periods. Their outlook mentions the destined for December this year. Full results presentation is available here. Village Roadshow also had a drop in profit for its Gold Coast parks ($33.2m to $29.3m) which could be partially attributed to a slight decrease in attendance of 300,000. The US water parks are looking like they will make a profit in the next financial year, settling with a loss of $800,000 this year. They report the best ever launch for the VIP pass this year and plan to spend between $25 and $30 million this financial year on the parks. Also, Wet'n'Wild Sydney is still scheduled to open in December next year. Full results presentation is available here. Below is an article from the Gold Coast Bulletin about the results: http://www.goldcoast...t-business.html Thoughts?

Ardent Leisure mentioned in their recent results presentation that the Kung Fu Panda ride is a thrill ride.

I think he was only suggesting to demote MDMC from being one of the Big 7.
