XXXL looks insane. Unfortunately, I can't stomach rides like that. Are you going to try and get your canera on any rides?

My dad wants to get a go pro for filming business ads. So we are getting one tomorrow. So i should be able to film Fireworks, ride POV and a walk threw of sideshow alley.

Nice. Test it out before you go.

Nice. Test it out before you go.

Nice. Test it out before you go.

Ok thanks and are they good?

Nice. Test it out before you go.

Sorry, bad reception here. From what I have seen they look pretty sharp. I shoot my video on a DSLR.

Ok thanks and hear are some pictures for anybody that wants to see them.

Below is some pictures from the Adelaide Show

Those rides aren't scary just vomit machines. I really dislike them.

FreakOut is owned by B+B Amusements and "FEAR" (The Tower Coaster) is still in the country and O'neils still own it but not sure if it's still travelling or in the "boneyard" like their HUSS Rainbow.

Thanks and I got a camera (Not a go pro). So I can film fireworks and the rides but i cant do ride POVs. Im heading down after lunch so i will upload them tomorrow hopefully.

Just got back from the show. I got videos and i will put them together and post them here. I'm going to sleep now anyway.

Looking forward to it, Tim. Hope you had good weather yesterday. Did you manage to go on all those rides?

Yeah it was great weather and i went on the following.

- The Freak out

- Space roller

- Nitro

- Ferris Wheel

- Super Bowl

- Star Flyer

- Sky Walker

Then I saw the fireworks which where awesome.

Does anyone know who owns the star flyer?

funtime in Queensland.

Its owned by a WA operator I think. The staff were wearing the same uniform as the people on the big slide. (Im talking from the Perth Royal Show)

I am working on the video however my mac is going so slow its taking forever. I am also going away soon. So hopefully I will get the video uploaded soon.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but this seemed as good a candidate as any – are there any decent fairs on in February?

Yep! The Florida State Fair is on the first two weeks of February.

I should have clarified. Any fairs in Australia in February?

Australia via Florida is a perfectly legitimate itinerary for you though right?

The Festival of Perth is on February-March. Crazy things like 'The Giants' take over the streets.

Here's a copy of Weekend Notes, with what's on in Perth during that time period, featuring a nice advertisement for Adventure World.

Things like King Carnival, a non-travelling fair of sorts, are only open on weekends by that stage.

Australia via Florida is a perfectly legitimate itinerary for you though right?

Well yes, but not when I'm connecting flights in Dubai

For avoidance of all doubt, I'm looking to attend any fair in Australia or New Zealand held during the month of February that has a roller coaster. I suspect that the answer to this is "there isn't going to be one" but would like to be certain of this. I've spoken to Mahon's Amusements in NZ and their coaster is out of use at present

The Royal Canberra Show is on the 27th feb - 1st of March. It has had the Crazy Spinning Coaster appear in previous years but wouldn't be 100% if it's attending this year.

Here are my pictures from the Perth Royal Show.  A lot of rides are now $12 to get on or 2 for $20.  The kiddie rides start from about $8.  I heard a rumour that they had moved the big ferris wheel over east sometime during the winter, yet it's now back in WA.  The Python Loop looks to have had a bit of a paint job.  It's riding okay.  There was plenty of smog in the air over Perth, although the Avenger ride certainly wasn't helping.
