I was going to say 'nah, he only pulls the cannon out on weekends' - but that is clearly an inferior 'Nikon'

...shots fired....

It's how you use it.

We have an opening date of December 10.

[New display name]

The opening date will make @Gazza a happy man.

[Brad2912]

That's some great news. 

So does ST go the weekend before, after or go head to head?

Still reckon the 17th 

[Gazza]

Here is a mini update, not really much point going back until opening day now.

Super ripper is finished and has daylight ring effects on the enclosed section.

The shade structure over the kids area is huge and looks very heavy duty due to the cantilever design.

I was hoping the white shade sails were just going to be used for the rendering, not actually what we ended up with. Not very exciting. Just a further extension of the whole Westfield/Vortex/Sky Voyager/Steel Taipan queue vibes

So Bikash is his recent insta post has further isolated the records associated with the new slides - after the media's inaccurate reporting of it being the longest slide in the world (hahaha).

So apparently its the biggest, longest and tallest tower based slide in the southern hempishere.

 

I guess anything can be record if you break if down far enough.

It's patently not though.

Beach Park Brazil is in the Southern Hemisphere, Insano is 41m high

On the WnW website, Double Barrel is described as being 12m high, so i would estimate Kaboom being about 24m high.

It's unlike Bikash to exaggerate.... 

Maybe he meant in the Oceania region of the southern hemisphere.... haha

Would have to be over 27m at least? Gravity Wave down in Funfields clocks that...

[Gazza]

Good point but I dunno if they are counting overall slide height or the height of the actual start tower, since Gravity Wave is on a hill

[GoGoBoy]

Wet'n'Wild have just added a bunch of photos and videos to their FB and Insta channels of people testing the new slides (with the exception of Kaboom)

 

 

[bladex]

only 2 of them slides (both are the same ) can you ride single....

Not until Sunday for me unfortunately. But jussst before the borders open up.

This looks like a really good addition for the park and makes great use of this large area. I feel like the whole back area of the park will have more energy now that it has seating, a kids splash zone and attractions for all ages
