Could flip it and have the Queue come in from the other side and exit back down the old Queue? Or... anything else.

Or there are other reasons they don't want police poking around

My local cable wakeboard park just bought ~$200k worth of new obstacles and even got some from the closue of the GC Wakepark. Suspect it might be a hard sell in QLD. Maybe Bayside might...

If they wanted this to be a real and successful product they would have put more thought and effort into it. Things like discounted animal encounters, Seaworld Pass reserved seating at shows ect

More replying to @Smol bean about why name submissions might not mean anything and not actually a good "marketing tool"

When DW were re-working the Gold Coaster, didn't they apply for a couple of names?

Big Splash water park will go up for sale with slides intact, owners say - ABC News No demolition on the cards The owners say work to reopen the site by November will continue alongside the sale process, and any buyer will have to meet the existing lease requirements. (ABC News: Monte Bovill) Ginninderra Labor MLA Tara Cheyne said the update on the upcoming sale was a relief. "Too often in this saga there's been silence or just not enough information about what's happening," Ms Cheyne said. "Of course I'm still very nervous, and I'm sceptical, but I was encouraged." She said she had met with the owners and she believed they were now "in tune with comments from the community". "They're looking to sell. They're not looking to redevelop. They're not looking to demolish anything. "I understand they're not Canberra-based. They thought they were investing in something that's turned out to be very different. Ginninderra Labor MLA Tara Cheyne said she had an encouraging meeting with the site's owners. (ABC News) She reiterated the government's position that the reopening date of November 1 was non-negotiable, and that progress leading up to that date would be monitored. "It's not an aspiration. It's a condition. The pool must open," she said. "And if it's not met then obviously the enforcement powers come back into play." Apartment developers told to jog on Big Splash's owners have confirmed the slides will remain for the upcoming sale. (ABC News: Monte Bovill) Ginninderra Greens MLA Jo Clay said "clearly the community was right". She issued a warning to any prospective buyers: "There are strong community expectations. This is a whole recreational site and you are not going to get away with not running it that way," Ms Clay said. "Obviously it's a difficult site to run but it's not impossible. This was a successful water park for a long, long time. "And whoever takes this on needs to understand that since that site was last sold, parliament have said there will be no rezoning. Ms Clay said the government could seize the opportunity to take over the site. But Ms Cheyne said the government did not have a position on whether it would be interested in buying the site without first seeing the sale documents.

I heard a previous VRTP exec is on Big Brother this year

Fits the new theme of Galvanized Park really well so I dunno what you're talking about.

Also reduces risk which in turn reduces insurance premiums

This one appears to have movement. News articles came out yesterday/Friday saying they will be breaking ground in late 2026. Key details revealed for planned surfing venue

Well this has aged well Mega theme park stalls as developer blames Iran war for a...A $2.6 billion tourist attraction planned between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast stalls after the developer allegedly failed to pay a local contractor for planning work.

Losing a couple dollars per guest but gaining more guests is a perfectly acceptable business strategy. If the guest spend drops by $15+ then alarm bells might ring.

So they spent ~$70m building Rivertown, JR and retheme/rebuild of MM and removing Claw, building king claw? Math kinda does check out that they might spend $25-30m

No where else on the sunshine coast offers thrill rides. Yes there are other things to do here but if you want something more than a teacup ride on the sunshine coast you will need to go to Aussie World or decide the various aqua parks or rope swings into rock pools will suffice.
