Honestly, my parenting style is assess the situation and determine risk. If my kid has a fall, well shit thats on me, and he usually gets an ice cream (or strawberries/mango cause he thinks they are better??). I do this regardless if its playground equipment, a tree or whatever, its my job as the parent to make sure my kid is safe. Dreamworlds (and any amusement park or company) job is to make sure my kid is safe in situations that I can't control (like operating a ride) or situations that come with an assumption of safety (like walking on a flat obvious path). The world shouldn't be rubber mats and rounded edges. Take responsibility and create boundaries. Peer pressure is not an acceptable excuse.

Nah just flat out.

To me it reads like they are keeping the structure and changing elements of the ride. Potentially track extension and or ride systems upgrade.

Just send the other around behind it to push along. Bumper car style

How long do Flats normally last? DD is 6 years now. Edit: Also how many Twin Hammers are there globally? Intamins site only lists 2, MW and one in Malaysia.

Sure, but we already have the Twin Hammer now. If they put the gyro in instead of the Twin Hammer it makes sense, but not to replace the Twin Hammer.

Why has no one quoted this part yet from the article? Lillian Rangiah (and staff) must have a low thrill level tolerance.

They didn't have to get a license for it so no need for a press release

Not even open yet and I'd probably rate it above the new boomerangs coming to MW

I think Bertie Beetle is a loss leader product now. Bring people in and they buy all this other crap at the stall.

In that case I hope Ardent continues and publishes a Press Release every time they get a license. Would love to hear about renewing their liquor license.

So apart from having a shiny MAP badge, what does this even mean? And does VRTP/Aussie World have similar? Are these a requirement for operation? This press release give very little info.

If talking about incidents, El Toro also recently closed due to an incident injuring 14. Intamin ride, but built by RMC.

I've said this before but I really enjoy GL, purely for how slow it goes through the elements and just lets you hang. As an aside, the easiest way to not be compared to Rivals, get an Aussie first is get a 'gimmick' coaster, like Flying, Wing, Stand Up, Free Spin, 4D, Dive ect. Hybrid, although cool, won't work. To us the difference is massive, to the GP, its not as noticeable, or easy to market.

First Turnstile?

Build your own? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If they are built into the ride, I assume it would need to go through the manufacturer?

70km/h in 1 direction and 70km/h in reverse. Easy, 70+70 = 140km/h duh

Genuinely exciting and terrifying. Terrifying because I promised my family DW passes when they have 1-2 more rides and financially I'm not ready for that.

So my son used to LOVE this show because he was young and knew nothing, which meant we went every time. My absolute favorite time I've ever seen this was just after it rained and they literally has to do about 5k/m, not even exaggerating, and even then they still skidded past their marks and abandoned some 'stunts'. it was just genuinely hilarious and I want it like that more often now.

Just because international raptors are extreme thrills doesn't mean a custom SW one has to be. The benefit of a custom layout is you make it what you want. The benefit of a raptor is its small footprint, and narrow tolerances allowing it to operate in tight spaces. But as I said, realistically a flat would work better for the areas.

I've said this so many times. Australia needs a flying coaster. If you add a legitimate world first to it (be it an exciting element or height), or make it incredibly themed (hahahahaha) it would draw in the international crowd. MW has a slam dunk here as I see comments from internationals wanting to visit Rivals but there isn't much else for their draw. I've not seen similar comments about ST, likely as its a clone with a swing launch, and swing launches are really hit/miss. That a rambling enough?

Not taking sides because I'm not educated enough, but thats a terrible example of 'safely falling 30m'. No one has been killed to date, but there have been numerous serious injuries The source starts off with injury summaries but as the event moved from planned to "unofficial", due to over popularity and injury risk, I would say the injuries stopped getting reported as often/clearly.

Pretty much every park in QLD now.
