Pretty much, separate the cars and put them on a forklift. I think the superman building gets used for general storage and work because it's a big shed with a lot of spare space.

I think its more because it's a clone so often its just easier to not re-design the columns for the whole thing. I think obviously they paid for a bit of customisation with the swing launch, but probably easier to leave the rest of the columns and just adjust the pedestal height. Not as bad as this Intamin 10 looper in china on a hillside where they literally built an entire concrete structure to hold it up on a flat plane. Do you have a link to the CCTV images or CCTV feed?

Why is there a half dot a different size to the rest? Anyhow, the video is on the ride page What is also interesting is that we can discern the other ride names by looking at the trophies on the website you can earn for each ride: The "New Thrill Ride" would indeed be Sledgehammer.

Splash pads are fun for children, and give good variety for a family day out at Wet n Wild. It’s not really practical to have your kid at WnW Jr, and then dress them and take them over to the Looney Tunes splash zone if they feel like doing that. Plus splash pads are small and cheap enough you might as well have more than one, so the younger sibling can do that while the older one goes on the big slide nearby. For younger visitor too, you can just change the design slightly and it still seems like a "different" attraction to them. Kind of like how a McDonalds playground might be built by the same manufacturer as the Hungry Jacks playground, but the kid will want to go on both (and be happy to do so) because they look different, have different slides etc.

Lol no. Splashpads are going in everywhere from caravan parks to public parks to swim centres, so it would be well understood in the construction industry what they are.

Anyone else notice a splashpad is part of it too.

Have they put the monthly price up on the memberships over time?

Let's not confuse loyalty with forgetting to cancel something.

Paying by the month direct debit doesn't make someone more loyal than paying an equivalent amount lump sum IMO. Two sides of the same coin.

Isn't offering exclusive access a carrot?

Don't One pass holder pay more?

You won't be able to use a Village Roadshow pass at Dreamworld.

Lunchtime today, the fast right turn after the loop is up. a bit harder to see as well but some of the exit of the loop has begun going up.

I Still prefer Wipeout because the theming had a bit more heart, and it ran a better cycle. Vortex had the potential to be quite good (And I do prefer top spins overall), but it runs a bit of an average cycle that doesn’t fully utilise the tricks a Top Spin can do, and the theming is a bit too modern, and the fountains don’t do enough IMO. If it was like Talocan, but with sandy Atlantis ruins it would have been sick. Rampage I think also doesn’t do much with its capabilities. It does a couple of manoeuvres with arms in opposite directions, but spends 80% of the cycle doing flips like a normal top spin, with maybe a tiny bit of offset between the arms creating a constant tilt.

Coaster nerd in me wants to point out how clones are often never truly a clone. The loop supports have been redesigned from the earlier models.

Kind of when you were a kid getting into attractions "yeah yeah he's only 4" Edit: Rappa literally thinking the same thing lol.

I used to think that ride maintenance used to be done in 2-4 weeks per attraction, am i going nuts?

Yes, keep in mind this thing is as tall as Superman, but the fan turn is like 3x the width of the top hat, so it looks huuuuge. Being on an elevated site actually helps a little too, and is not something I had really considered until now.

Today's progress

Touche. That said I wonder if it'll be gone in a few years since its not too much older than the original super 8.

Wedding venue?

Two trapdoor start boxes: You can see in the artwork what each one does. One is a straight speed slide with humps, the other has twists and turns.
