Wipeout had no water in it at all

`

The area where the wipeout surfboards and other things are dumped is now fenced off, or maybe this is for development for the future WWW attraction(s).

TOT is still down

And finally Tiger Island reserve seating has been moved from the first row too ->

Thanks for taking some pictures and not a nauseating video !

 

Seriously though, thanks

Forgot to mention Buzzsaw was testing with a double circuit

Double circuit ??

Buzzsaw has the capability to do 2 full loops but this is mostly just done during testing and maintenance. It would be awesome if they bumped up the ride time and allowed it to complete the 2 full loops while guests are riding.

Now that is good reserved seating. Well done DW. 

Mane if I remember, in the early days of the BuzzSaw, the ride did do a double circuit with riders, but I think due to the large wait times, they changed it to a single loop. Anyone correct me if wrong 

Was certainly 2 circuits when it first opened

Wait time shouldn't be an issue anymore!

Also, what I've realised is Dreamworld is largely filled with families and not thill seekers, GD yesterday launched with 3 people in it and was not full for as long as i saw it, while the train and other family attractions gathered a larger crowd.

I noticed last Wednesday the hot dog from Ocean Parade was in Blue Lagoon which might be the new bone yard since the old Thunderbolt site was being cleared.

I had always thought that TI had a double row fence to ensure guests couldn't lean over the fence and end up in the moat. Most big-cat enclosures have a double fence to ensure separation, in theory since if the animal could get to the fence they could grab you through it.

I realise the moat may prevent the cats from reaching the fence (and hence, why its such a low one) but i'm just a little concerned that the reserved seating area may see issues arise from those guests being a little too close - mainly dropping things into the moat, etc.

Fair shake of the sauce bottle @AlexB You're overstretching here.

Not a good place to overstretch! 😣

Acording to Dreamworld’s maintenance page Buzzsaw has reopened?

Most likely has, now everyone hope for two circuits. That probably won’t be the case but hopefully it is. And I wonder what parts have come from overseas.

Umm..I take it DW forgot to tell Ardent School Holidays have started?

Would you like to provide some context?

Would assume Mickey is referring to the reduced mon-Friday operating hours

Spot on @Brad2912😁

With School Holidays under way, it makes zero sense to have major functioning rides closed part of the day while other major's remain  closed:

HOT WHEELS SIDEWINDER	MAINTENANCE 20/08/2018 - 14/10/2018

TOWER OF TERROR II	MAINTENANCE 15/07/2018 - 30/09/2018

GINGY'S GLIDER	MAINTENANCE 12/09/2018 - 08/10/2018

The park has only been open for 40mins, and it’s only QLD school holidays currently, so most people would be in no rush to get there as most would be visiting on annual passes.

Oh, I’m assumimg that the prior weekend counted as holidays. Hope someone on the forum goes and can tell us if the crowd numbers are promising.

That's it - the pool prevents a run up for a tiger to jump the moat.

I've used that space a few times for shoots - if you want to see a show i'd highly, highly recommend the extra coin to sit there.

Aaaaaaand we're back to square one
