wow the gondola already on, lets go wipeout

Well that was quick, gondola already back on. There certainly not mucking around!

Well I was wrong then. It looks really good with the repaint. Can anyone tell if the harnesses are any different or is it the same system? Maybe they will have it ready for Screamworld.

YAY! dreamworld has given the wipeout TLC.

i bet that new ride will be a chaos

If you want to kill people.

love the new Gondola ... A unique and originally cool look for a new Era in Wipeout History Haha

So it's just a fresh lick of paint?

At least dreamworld did do something to wipeout and not just let it rot like the mine ride.

Can't wait to see the new ride cycle!

The gondola has just had a fresh coast of paint, by the look at the photoa. It was said that they were going to be re-apolstered.

So now they just need to finish the pathway, add water and test it. That can be done in a week.

From what i can see the seats are now blue instead of black, the Wipeout logo is yellow but i think that will change hopefully, the new colour scheme painted on and also the lap bar looks like it is blue as well. Its all coming together now, so exciting.

You've got to assume they're going to putting the surf boards back in too right?

I would like to think so. But I would have thought they would be the last thing to be put in place.

With having to put all the gearboxes and motors and stuff like that the surfboards get in their way as it is close to the ladder on the supports that allows them to get up there so it would be one of the last to go back up.

Do you guys think there'll be anything interesting inside the wave? The surfboards desperately needed TLC...

I'm sure they have done something inside the wave. Why go to all this effort and leave a part of it out. They might have just replaced them or removed them completly.

I'll be heading back out to Dreamworld tomorrow so I'll try to get some photos of progress on Wipeout and the new ride. See if anything has happened at WhiteWater World too. Is there anything else you guys want photos of?

To me, it looks like whilst they were working on the 'waves' on top of the gondola, they broke the two end pieces, so they've just decided to leave those two bits off.

From what i can see the seats are now blue instead of black, the Wipeout logo is yellow but i think that will change hopefully, the new colour scheme painted on and also the lap bar looks like it is blue as well. Its all coming together now, so exciting.

I don't think they're going to change the colour of the logo. Why would they bring it back, after being gone so long, without painting the logo? Wouldn't it have been easier for the logo to be done before they refitted all the 'apolstery' ? (upholstery)

I'm at Dreamworld right now I will upload some pictures after I come back from Carinvale at Movie World.. I will tell you what I have seen so far. Starting with Wipeout the pathway is complete and the carriage is connected to the arms (don't know what they are called but that was a guess) the ride looks good with the colour aqua I wish they brought Fluffy the shark back! Now onto the Big 9 Ride there's some wood which looks like a control room the area has been cleared and there's broken no tree sticks there anymore.. I'm gonna guess the ride is going to be a Air Race 8.2! *That Air Race 8.2 was a joke so don't take it serious

there's broken no tree sticks there anymore..

Again, but this time in English please.

Tree sticks = branches?? Maybe?? I dunno..

Yah tree branches.. Forgive me for the piss poor post that I did. I was about to go in Zombie Evilution so I was in rush typing this post as I was about to go in

AlexB maybe the waves are in the way and they go on later.

When they first dismantled the ride they left 2 waves behind, plus I think it would just look stupid if they didn't put them back on. So I hope you are correct. This photo near the bottom right shows the waves on the wave.

...makes sense...

Is there anything else you guys want photos of?

Could you also have a look around to see if there is any sign of where the new food outlets are going.

If you can could you please try to get some close up of the gondola.

And maybe go up the queue of cyclone (I think that would have the best view) to see if any slide and/or ride parts have arrived out the back of WWW.
