Jungle Rush Coaster

I went to DW over the weekend and DW was pumping.  Let’s hope the weather holds up over the holidays and DW have a banger.   It’s been a little while since I’ve been on JR so I thought I would give a little update.

DW are continuing to add to JR, some things are positive and some things less positive.

The rope around the bamboo intersections has been replaced and glued into place.  It looks more durable than the first attempt, but time will tell.

Every time I have queued for JR I have complained how hot and stuffy it was but I am pleased to announce I experienced the cooling system for the first time.  There are pockets it doesn’t reach but overall, it was much better.

The dinosaur poop still looks shit, and I also noticed it is taking DW a long time to get the second waterfall working.

Management of DW and Pico Play ought to walk through Rivertown on their knees and they will soon realise kids can’t see anything through the fencing.  Why DW went with the backyard privacy fence, I will never know.

The bats & water feature inside the main show room look good but I still believe smoke screens should be added to where the trains enter & exit the temple.

Only one TV in the station was on, which was a little strange but for the most, loading of trains was first class.

On the weekend was the first time I experienced a queue of over 10mins and it could be why I never noticed it before because I have never stopped in any part of the queue for more than 1min or the work experience kid has got their hands on the volume control.   The main show room in the queue, I am renaming it to the torture room.  I was in that room for 5mins, and I wanted to rip my ears off.  Multiply people had their hands over their ears trying to shield themselves from the ear-piercing sounds.  Never have I been in queue, anywhere in the world that has the atmosphere sound, turned up to over rock concert levels.  It was that painful, that I only rode JR once.   DW you need to carry out some test and make sure the torture room is safe because 6 hours later my ears were still ringing.  Blaring sounds at people isn’t adding the desired atmosphere.

I also believe as the train passes the windows, it should be lit up because nobody even notices it going by.

I haven't been to the NEW Rivertown, I honestly don't care whether Dreamworld wins or loses by their new rides, I just wished they gave a shit about the guest experience... forget about the manbabies who occupy this chat, and upload their boring photos I'm talking about the kids who carry the legacy of nostalgia 10-20-30 years from now THAT's what'll be important.

Is it Indy at DL levels bad or worse?

Worse, but as I said, maybe someone got to the volume controls who shouldn't have, the day I went.

In my opinion, the guest experience is a much higher priority at Dreamworld than down the road.

Might not be much of a standard compared to the world stage, but for the local area, Dreamworld is shining.
