Quit it guys.

We're giving them ideas.

I can legitimately see the Claw rethemed as a mushroom ride... and work.

I wish we get one of the Huss Jump2 rides like sledge hammer at Canada's wonderland (I WISH HAHAHA)

They should bring the Rapid Ride back to how it used to be. This is a video I put together showing the theming in 1987...

There also used to be some dinosaurs in the tunnel. I recall a large T-Rex.

Was it just as confused for cohesion back then as it is now?

The queue is talking about thieves or something. On the ride you see some static models of them with no sound, then there are dinosaurs? I can't recall it all off the top of my head.

Was there any particular story then that made sense? Or was it just Animals/Dinosaurs mania?

Back to Wipeout... This has been overlooked but does anyone think we'll see a new cycle when it starts up again?

I don't think that's been overlooked. It's been brought up many times.

I think it's likely we may see some changes the cycle, or previously unused cycles appearing again

I've discussed this numerous times in the "Maintenance Schedule" topic, which is where we were discussing Wipeout, but now it's all over the place.

With WWW new slide, it could be a slide that had originally planned for, but was delayed to the finical crisis. This is what it says on Wikipedia:

"In October, 2007, WhiteWater World submitted a development application to the Gold Coast City Council to extend the water park. The main feature of the application was a 25-metre (82 ft) tower featuring three new water slides: two Mammoth slides and a Tornado Tantrum Alley. The expansion proposal also featured a lazy river and a large water play area. After two years, the application was approved by the council."

So maybe we might be seeing this tower and one of the slides they had planned for. Or they have got something entirely different and this could be coming the future. But is something like this possible before September.

They certainly are not expanding the park at this stage.

There is no room for a new tower that I can think of within the current park.

I think we are likely to see something add on to an existing tower, but where I have no idea

General point of a forum is to actually make comments not just re-post someone's words with highlight.

It you are disagreeing with what I am saying, tell me what you disagree with and your point of view.

Certain: established as true or sure; unquestionable; indisputable

Didn't know you worked for the park sorry.

Sorry reanimated, maybe I wasn't clear enough for you. I also missed the new guidelines that say you have to be employed by one of the parks to contribute here.

I AM certain that WWW will not be expanding to what was planned in the 2007 DA, as was part of the question posed prior to my response.

I also believe that it is unlikely we would see an entirely new tower & slash down pool built by September. Hence my comment that I think the new slide will be on an existing tower, but I am not sure which one it would be.

Thanks again for nitpicking apart my comment.

Its always worth checking out past projects to see how quickly they can get stuff built. At WnW they started demolishing speed coaster at the end of april, and had the aqualoops open by September,...An entire new tower.

Are they doing any work at WWW behind little rippers? They could have started without anyone noticing, since not many on here seem to go to WWW.

BAM!

Hehehe - Considering they built WnWS in 12-13 months - knocking together a slide tower and associated infrastructure in the next 4 months is quite feasible, especially if the necessary approvals and certifications have already been done. I'm getting a general sense that DW's certifier is a slow lazy lot (whereas VRTP are a lot quicker in filing with council).

A pool can be built from bare earth, and ready to swim in less than a month. Pre-fabricated tower sections (if ready to go) only take a few weeks. I drive past several construction sites on my way to work and i've seen blocks of 50-100 townhouses go up in 4 months.

Considering any new slide is pretty much 'support towers+slippery surface+water pipes+poolsplashdown+filtration' I don't see any reason why they can't get something decent up in the timeframe given.

The lazy river is the only thing I can't see happening as in my opinion the ground work would be more difficult... but anything else is pretty much on the table!

Obviously they have started without anyone on here noticing. Lots of temporary fencing, bobcats, and trucks underneath the rip since last week

Dreamworld have removed the scheduled maintenance list for WWW so maybe they are making changes because they are adding a third slide to the RIP/BRO tower.

Talking about the BRO... Does anyone think they'll ever reopen the end lanes?

I've always noticed they are closed, does anyone know why that is so?

Surely it's not because they are the two lanes with the tightest turns and therefore are slightly dangerous for riders...

You could possibly hang something off that tower...It would be pretty convoluted though.

Having the splashdown where you've put it looks like it would be a real pain in the ass to walk around. Without a new tower, I'm not really seeing any other options though.

you would just walk past it like the ones for the Little Rippers. The current path network would be unchanged.

Given the size of the pool directly below it, wouldn't they need to change it up a bit?
