Wet 'n' Wild Sydney Construction

I like the idea of the action river, but I also love the lazy river at W&W Gold Coast just as it is. I love the way I can just relax on it as long as I like. However I do like the little thrill you get going under the waterfall. As long as the overall experience of the action river is similar in the sense that you can just lie back and do nothing for the most part, I'd like it (a lot)! No offence jjuttp, but Sea World isn't a zoo, so really can't be compared to San Diago zoo in my opinion. I absolutely love Sea World. It's my favourite part of the Gold Coast, and the Gold Coast is my favourite place in the world. In other words personally I'd much rather be at Sea World than at San Diago Zoo. However obviously if you like zoos then you might prefer San Diago zoo to Sea World.

It counts as an aquarium, which in a way is like a "division" of the zoo classification. Also i just drew this up, ill edit it as we see/find out more. Fixed

Finally a banner placed on one of the shipping containers facing the M4 for drivers heading westbound advising of Wet'n'Wild Sydney. Not the biggest of banners and I still think a bigger sign next to the M4 facing both directions would be more beneficial. Still, at least it's something.

any chance someone can grab a pic when they pass by?

[Reggie74]

Pylons being installed today near the M4 side of the site.

[Reggie74]

The pylons that have been put in place look like they are for the Abyss master blaster going off the proposal map layout of the park.

Going from the video, its the Tornado Alley, and Tornado. Also in my drive by, the lazy river on the corner is considerably deeper, and gradual "pits" elsewhere. Thats about it.

Looks like the structure that will hold the first ride is nearing completion. The stairs leading to the beginning of the ride have been completed.

Hey guys This popped up on my Facebook wall this afternoon. Gives a virtual tour of Wet n Wild Sydney. I don't think anyone has posted this yet on this thread - sorry in advance if they have!! http://goo.gl/6cImG

[Alex Berriman]

Don't think that has been posted here, but it has been on the Wet n Wild Sydney website for some time now.

[jjuttp]

The 3D flyover has been posted AND discussed previously in the thread.

[jjuttp]

The main Tornado bowl has most of the lower part of its truss frame set up now. Plus the same tower has the 2 stair set fully set up.

Only difference between now and 2006 is when there done the dirty paddock will be replaced by a kick ass water park.

[Julys Aquila]

LOL ...ok people that is the first watermark i had put over photos and to my surprise i quite liked it - "Holy crap Batman, he said he liked it!!!!" Lol... ok sorry i like that Batman and Robin picture too ....every week or two i will continue to upload more pictures maybe like what Slick said with a smaller watermark or for both pictures and video you can just watch on youtube ..... Will upload latest pictures this weekend 13-14/04/2013, see you then....

[Reanimated35]

IMO if you want to watermark your pics, fine, but maybe try a clear/white-ish grey watermark that doesn't distract so much from the photo

[Alex Berriman]

It doesn't even have to be a watermark, it can just be like what most other people do where they put it in the corner of the photo.

[rappa]

At the end of the day it's just an ordinary photo of a construction site. Is ensuring the protection of such photos with a watermark even really required? If I was taking photos of dirt and metal and uploading I really wouldn't give a rats if people stole it and fobbed it off as their own. Cause really in the scheme of things, who cares?
