It’s a sell out tonight, but aside from finding seating to eat everything moving fairly smoothly. great night. will also add the nice new addition that all the meals now come with a drink (and prices have not increased!!) which is great to see!

was not open on the weekend and judging by the built up sediment in the channels, it hasnt been run in quite a while. I did ask the ride op on The Rip, who said "it will open again one day" but had not clue when that may be

They were both running when i was there on Sunday, whoever the pumps below Bro/Rip were making very loud noises compared to normal operation.

Well actually, that is exactly what it is. because if I jump on the scales, showing everyone around that I’m too heavy, am I really going to get into the queue and then when I get to the front say “oh hey, you’ll need to put some skinny people on the ride with me because I’m over your limit” or “hey we’ll have to ride with 5 on this cycle”. It’s pathetic operations, and any business that has the ethos of “we’ll be just fine losing a few customers” is on a slippery slope to oblivion.

I’d like to know if season passholders we given a heads up about this when purchasing/renewing, or if they are entitled to a “sorry I’m too fat for your theme park” refund?

75kg??? that rules out probably 40% minimum of adult riders, probably more. quite possibly the most stupid requirement I’ve heard of. I was keen to get to adventure world one day, I’ll strike it off the list.

Whilst that would be a reasonable explanation, there is zero social distancing happening or even being requested to happen in the queue lines both on the tower or when lining up to enter the tower. I’m not even sure why they haven’t bothered to remove the downstairs sorter and releaser, it’s a total waste of a staff member

I also noticed yesterday on The Rip they weren’t even allowed the next group to even load into the raft/tube until the prior raft had already been cleared. Last season (and all years prior) you would load whilst the previous cycle was underway, so as soon as they had existed the Op would release you. Also The Wedgie only operates from 4-5pm (with the green room operating 10am-4pm)

You can. Become a Parkz member and contribute to this place that brings you so much joy and fulfilment… and they’ll throw in reaction breakdowns! Join now & they’ll also throw in fancy stars next to your name that make people think you’re a moderator!

Point out where this occurs for me. It doesn’t. Jobe put forward his ideas and you just shat on them I’m not a moderator. Only one - calling you an arrogant dick. Which I stand by. I don’t know, I’m not a moderator. meh. Apologise or not. I care little. But don’t say you’re going to then give reasons why you won’t. Given I know none of your Personal story (until now) to insinuate my comment was some slant on hardships you’ve suffered is stupid. yep.

The old coin operated locker system is being fitted with a more modern (and convenient) tap and go style interface

Good old Fabio. We've already had someone hit by an Ibis on Rivals...

@pazzap if you are near 50 i feel sorry for you, because the way you have responded to @Jobe's thread and ideas is pre-teen level at best. He put a heap of thought and effort into an idea, and for you to just jump on and throw shit at it, when he put more effort into one post than you have in all the contributions you have made in all your time coming in and out over the years is petulant at best. You don't have to agree with his plans, but as others have, engage in a discussion rather than acting like an arrogant dick.

That’s entirely based on taste. I’m excited for both but Leviathan has callbacks to my youth and Bush Beast at Wonderland so if I had a choice of which I’m most looking forward to, it’s Leviathan every day as I haven’t ridden a wooden coaster in the best part of 20 years

Where’s the Niagara Falls of Improbability react button when you need it ?

No need to apologise mate, I’m by no means the forum police, I typically use mobile too so maybe when I jumped on the forums on my laptop today it stood out. Just seemed strange and unnecessary.

I guess they could skip the fork and just call in “Atlantis Swing”

is the nest in the framework on the underside of the track? The train passes on the top so clearly the nest isn’t there. Pretty sure moving the nest would a less favourable situation for the bird. its illegal to move a nesting bird unless posing a high safety risk, which I’m assuming it isn’t

Whilst i think that would be a great addition i don't know if they have the space to be honest given plans (although not publicly released as yet) are already in place for the current AA site.

no drama with some swearing here and there, though having it appear on every post you make in quite an aggressive way seems unnecessary to me....

not sure if it's a new addition but i've never noticed it before. Is language like that on your profile necessary on a forum like this?

I wouldn’t want to see a giga or strata built here unless it had something entirely unique feature wise. I see no point in just making a taller version for the sake of hitting a height target to make it his a classification level. we’ve got DC Rivals, which was unique as our first massive full circuit coaster, but it has unique features like the NIL and the backwards seats (at least unique Australia wise). For the investment required just to say “we’re taller”, I think it could be spent far better

Think that’s called the Veruca Salt reaction…

Fully 6 speed slides still closed, as is Triple vortex.

Appears they have repurposed the sheep shearing stage for the petting zoo and stuck cardboard flowers everywhere outside to make you believe the dusty outback themed area is indeed colourful and welcoming. Photos courtesy of Greg’s’ insta
