Definitely think it was the in-house design aspect. From an insurance/perception standpoint after TRRR investigations and inquest had finished it was operationally the safe option.

Fun while it lasted 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Queue house construction is underway.

fair enough. Strange as most of the residential on that side had no issue nor did Westfield from what i have heard.

I didnt look though/beyond the barriers blocking the pathway to see in what state Dronkey's was in on Saturday when i was there (3 weeks ago it was entirely removed), so not sure if its been rebuilt or not as yet.

Wasn’t all areas. I don’t believe DW would have lost power, outage in the northern GC suburbs was largely isolated to those west of the M1.

Happy Halloween night is included. Other After Dark events have always been upcharged with pass holders getting a discount on them

Officially announced The introduction of a greater array of f&b options to accompany the event is great There are also 2 night events coinciding with the Winterfest, and a VIP option for $89pp

DW had an app, it was rubbish though. hardly a need for virtual queue except in peak times. it’s a beautiful sunny Sunday today and the longest wait has been 15mins and that was because of a ride stoppage, and despite having numerous rides out of action. MDMC, EFM, TS have been walk on basically all day

SV is still closed today, but BS at least for the moment in operation. in other news DW is moving to no physical annual cards too like VTP. We renewed during the week and went it today and whilst they’ll give you a card if you really want it, they want people using their mobiles and soon won’t be an option. And Pandamonium has just broken down whilst we are in queue. One of the arms won’t move into “home” position so they can’t undo the harnesses so everyone is stuck on the ride while they wait for maintenance

Picnic area?? There is nowhere to buy food from nearby, and you can’t take eskys in - so who is having a picnic or eating there??

And has a 90kg weight limit now apparently... what a great selection adults have to choose from...

It’s has issues consistently the last 2 weekends with people stuck on the ride for extended times. The whole thing is a shit show that surely VTP must be starting to consider giving up on it.

It’s not open long enough for anyone to virtually queue....

*edit*

The 90s nostalgia trip is only being provided to please people - they are not putting it on for shits and giggles....

Not sure if this group shot has been posted elsewhere but was shared on LinkedIn by Michael Croaker

I’d like what you wrote @Slick but apparently I’ve given too many likes today haha

Been saying it for years, duelling coasters themed to the The Flash (red) and Reverse Flash (yellow) would be a great theme choice. Nice tie in with the film coming out at the end of next year too. only shame in that is it leaves Batman with the least iconic ride in the park, when we all know he’s the best superhero...

The discussion about lifts was for the rafts, not the people...

You have to look at the market you are promoting to - that group, which i only just joined as i had never heard of it until it was raised here - is more so filled with what i would consider "fans" rather than enthusiasts. Most are surface level interested in the park. They go on Monday and watch the parade and post photos of it, then go again on saturday and watch the parade again, wax lyrical and post basically the same photos again from a different vantage point. They are also unabashed in defending any criticism of the park. As i said, its fanboy stuff at a surface level. To most on that page, this is a BIG thing. In comparison i would consider many here to be "enthusiasts" as we often chat about the thought patterns behind the decisions, and can equally applaud and critique the parks. We hold judgement until we see final results, and we are generally more measured.

The COO clearly said there would be announcements soon (which would have been reflective of todays announcements) and more to come later. He never said, all you hear on Friday is all we are doing.

The ear bashing that pained you post ride on LW was removed with the new trains. Others found that was replaced by pressure on the thighs/upper legs where the harness met - but i personally didnt experience that. You also had the option to wear a VR headset which would obviously have provided a different experience, had we had some forewarning about its closure, i would have ensured i experienced this, but i didnt get to

Shall not be happening. Wet N Wild prefers an enjoyable day at the park to be akin to a workout at the gym with steps and lots of carrying... There is nothing to indicate lifts in the artwork or animations provided.
