Would love to see that. Too bad Village doesn't seem to upload its commercials.

I still think the Curler should have been used for the Tornado Wave. Bombora is better suited to one of the raft slides as it fits well with Riptide. Oh well, no biggie. PS Can anyone figure out what T5 means?

Why didn't people like the train? I would have thought that would have been a highlight - a dark train ride with stuff jumping out randomly. Sounds fun to me

Well said! What's wrong with this country? I was thinking it might just be a QLD & NSW thing.... clearly I was wrong

In regard to theming (or lack of) in the dark ride section, I'm fairly sure there is a lit statue or two inside the building, isn't there? From the video I saw it looked like there was at least one just before the exit to the lift. It seems the inline twist section as you are exiting the building is some type of themed wooden tunnel too? It looks like it would give a neat disorientating effect... and the smoke is a nice touch

I agree - the suggestion that this would have been a good choice for Sea World, and better than Storm Coaster is ridiculous. This would have been a good choice for Dreamworld, clearly. Storm Coaster is perfect for Sea World and should be an awesome addition

I was thinking the same thing. They've put so much into this. Hope it pays off for them.

Quite impressive - on many levels. Who would have thought we'd see the day when Adventure World in Perth would have a roller coaster that far exceeds anything at Dreamworld. And while both parks added horror-themed attractions this year, one is a rehashed laser tag arena, while the other is a very decent, full circuit, themed, partially indoor roller coaster. Says it all

Thanks for the pics gdalby. Looks like more work has been done on the front of the show building with more containers added. Looking forward to seeing the entry portal theming for the splashdown transition into the show building

Craptacular! How surprising that Luna Park's new ride is about as standard/boring/carnie/portable as you can get. Lindsay Fox's promise to restore the park into something special remains very unfulfilled

I'd so do this!

That is very generous of them. Most companies would just say "too bad you missed out". The complaining families SHOULD be grateful for this. But we know they won't be

Yeah you are right - the wording does make it sound like 2 sessions. In regard to the offer - how do you know it will be retrospective? It's rare for any company to do that

Sorry to double post but I've just come across the first newspaper ad for Wet'n'Wild. Looks great. The offer should also please some of those families who have been bitching about prices. But what is even more interesting is the fact that we now know the park will be open until 10pm at night. Going by the artwork, it also looks like the slides might be rigged with some external lighting effects?

The Aquasphere is a strange choice for a council owned aquatic centre. I remeber seeing this product on the Whitewater website and not being a fan of it. Like a poor man's tantrum. The addition of lighting & music effects makes it sound more appealing, but so far Wet'n'Wild hasn't shown any interest in adding these effects to their waterslides

Thanks for that. So I'm guessing T5 is the Tornado, the Tantrum Alley is the Tantrum (duh!) and the Curler is the Tornado Wave. Anyone know what T5 means? The Aqua Tube is probably the single dark slide on the Whitewater tower (name stolen from the only tube slide at Wonderland!). The Breakers could possibly be the Master Blaster Express slides. We know the Double Bowlseye is the bowling alley. But what about the other 2 raft slides on the same tower? Only name left is Riptide. That could cover one of them, leaving one left over...

Where did you get all of those names for the attractions from?

The price a product can be set at all comes down to demand. My take on this is that this park is going to be so in demand, so popular, that they can set relatively higher prices. Anything lower and the park would probably struggle with serious capacity issues.

Complete darkness? Does that mean there are no show scenes or effects inside the shed?

Wet'n'Wild's social media team might have already given up on the daily attraction reveal so I'm going to take over for them. I can now reveal the 2 names for the upcharge attractions: The Surf Deck & Sydney SkyCoaster (taken from the season pass section of the website). I actually like those names.

Yeah learning the names is the only revelation really. Although maybe they should have said it would be a weekly reveal if they weren't willing to commit

I see Wet'n'Wild's social media people already got sick of the 'daily attraction reveal'. There has only been one attraction revealed so far and that was about 3 days ago. Mind you, if they're just going to keep posting still frames from the video that we've all seen before, then it's no big loss

Someone made a great comment on the Blacktown Advocate's facebook post: "I don't think it was built FOR Western Sydney in some grand altruistic gesture. There's nowhere else you can put it in Sydney. How it benefits the region is through jobs and tourism". That's so true. People in western Sydney seem to think this is their personal playground, and therefore should be offered at welfare rates. Um, no! It's for all of Sydney. And wider Sydney. And NSW. And the rest of Australia. And overseas tourists. Here is the facebook post if any of you want to lend your support to the park: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151913664332188&set=a.10150178776092188.322871.284664272187&type=1&theater

Looks fantastic. Really smooth. Still disappointed about the giant shed. Couldn't they have at least created some themed portals at the track entry and exit points? I hope the interior scenes are themed to a haunted warehouse... 'cause that's the only theme that'd fit

People are idiots. Can you imagine how PACKED the place would be if they were selling ridiculously cheap season passes? With the amount of young families living in western Sydney, that would be a recipe for never-ending queues.
