Dominos is no more and instead the same as SW’s pizza place

The waterfall in Calpyso Beach hasn’t been replaced and still remains as a steel structure

Surfrider is looking good with its recent repaint

Aqualoop is under maintenance 

Despite closing for good the buggy’s frack and buildings still remain

Mach 5 has no visible changes

Black hole has its roof missing now too

That ‘waterfall’ just looks awful. 

And I mean the disused Buggy attraction is so obvious, this is not an acceptable standard. 

Thanks @themagician for the update. Was anything noticeable happening with the AquaLoop, or did it just look like routine checks? 

@-nick.white.1543 just routine check and clean

Friend works at WNW. Black hole is closed due to the lack of water in the tunnels. 2-3 times a day the ride is closed because tubes keep getting stuck on the dry spots.

Someone tell them if you turn the tap to the left it comes out stronger... a plumber will charge you $400 for that pearl of wisdom.. #problemsolved

When I was there this afternoon the ride was operating

But why has the shade sail been taken off?

Black Hole shade sail still hadn’t been replaced and now they’ve added a couple red umbrellas at the top of the staff

Apparently, it is structural issues. God knows when the demolition works would begin. It has already been a fair while since they stopped operating.

Spelling error.

For the Jetstreams it’s almost been two years, for the Sidewinders about 1.5 years. And since then, nothing has happened 

November is lasting a lot longer than it usually does!

they've removed the easy parts. the tower is much harder to deal with. Honestly - there's no reason to pull it down (except aesthetics) until they have something else to go into the same space.

They will most likely remove the slides but reuse the tower for new slides in the future. 

Unless the tower has structural issues, which might be the reasoning for its closure 

Well if it's only the tower that has structural issues let's hope they will utilise the old slides

I'm only going from memory, but i'm pretty certain Mach5\Sidewinder was second hand when it came to WnW. I believe there was mention of structural issues with the tower, which is hardly surprising given its apparent age.

The slides are also getting on in years, and i'd rather they took something fresh and new, given the advances in technology in the past 2 decades, rather than try to recreate what was at best a mediocre offering.

The Mach 5 was indeed 2nd hand. It was about 10 years old when brought to the park from a water park in Europe which was shut down.

It was from the defunct Wet n Wild in Rio De Janeiro

Thats a great shot @Gazza - Is that Black Hole on the left also?

I’d say so because I know they definitely both came from this park.

Wow, I never realised the Black Hole was second hand too, thanks for sharing @Gazza

I hope we see a new ride at Wet N Wild very soon. Interesting to see what Raging Waters Sydney is doing by removing the 2 aqualoops. 4 isn't necessary really.

In Sydney yes, Queensland no. For some reason they are less popular in Sydney than Queensland.
