Downunder196 works at Dippin' Dots Confirmed

I took them seriously.

Hope they don't, it would take it from a ride where you get a little soggy to a ride you get completely drenched on, and most people have bags etc with them.

Step two is to install lockers at the ride entrance for people to keep their stuff dry.

I assume the drier is still there too.

I took them seriously.

Except he posted it as a question rather than as a rumour?

Would be awesome with water canons in my opinion.

From my experience you currently have to be lucky to get wet on the ride, which shouldn't be the case

lucky or unlucky

The only reason I can see them adding water cannons is for $$$

Two updates for the Parkz folks. Tailspin has entered testing today, meanwhile there's just heaps and heaps of stuff happening in-park right now. It's exciting to see and to me signals a huge turnaround for Dreamworld.

Over at Tailspin, new Ocean Parade signage is in.

How sexy are the new planes?

One of the shops in Main Street is all but gone and getting ready for its fresh new redo.

Read my take and check out the rest here.

If you're unlucky, those cannons go from refreshing to drenching in a split second.

Some cool close up action of the refreshed Wipeout.

Checkout the full Wipeout refresh review and photos here.

^Thankd for those photos, I can't believe that they are already testing the ride. One question though, how do people get into the planes? I've never been on this type of ride before and I can't figure out how they do. The claw and the refreshed sign look great. The blue path throughout Ocean Parade provides a good fresh look to the area. And those Wipeout photos are awesome.

The planes are basically just seats aren't they?

^I would assume so, but how do they get in them.

Like any other seat.

Step 1: Stand in front of seat.

Step 2: Move backwards while putting your bum downwards.

Step 3: Lower harness once you are safely sat down.

The photos posted have a bit of an optical illusion that the wings go all the way round. they don't.

So you get into the seats the same way you get into Arkham, Escape from Madagascar, or a chairlift. The wings do not go in front of the seat.

Dreamworld really do seem to be in good form at the moment, addressing many of the issues people have raised since I've been on the forum.

didn't they say you can control the planes to go upside down etc. how would they actually go upside down from the looks of them they can't your feet would hit the top bar?

The top of the headrest appears to be a good metre below the arm.

Given you are seated, and only your lower leg (knee down) is 'free', you would probably have to have roughly 2 metre long lower legs to hit that pole

didn't they say you can control the planes to go upside down etc. how would they actually go upside down from the looks of them they can't your feet would hit the top bar?

Can't you just look at a video of any one of the identical rides operating at other theme parks and know that nobody hits their legs?

well i know exactly how i'm going to ride it. i'll just flip the thing so i'm facing down the whole ride and not hang on!

Wow slick those pics of Wipeout are amazing.

After seeing it's been a year since Graig Davidson (I think that's his name) took over Dreamworld and White Water World. I think it's time that I praise the man for his effort towards the park. I praise him for him doing a refefubisment on three attractions! (AVPX, Wipeout and Claw) and putting good work on TailSpin. I have a feeling that he might be reading to our issues about Dreamworld here on Parkz! I hope Graig Davdison continues to do great job at Dreamworld and White Water World for a long while

well i know exactly how i'm going to ride it. i'll just flip the thing so i'm facing down the whole ride and not hang on!

That's virtually impossible....

^they said you can flip it yourself so just flip it hold your hands out and u b flyin!
