Doesn't work mate - codecs are all screwy. Do you have youtube?

[themagician]

It was just an ad for the new attraction that came up on Instagram. Here are some screenshots of what is shown (nothing major, just some new angles/renders)

Lovely work as always mate. thanks.

Your photo doesn't show any clouds when it was raining all day.

 I don't know what you have against clouds but at least the tower is coming along.

Here’s the time stamp for when I took the photos from my last update, just in case you had doubts

The installation of H2Oasis will begin this month 

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

It really is about time they put a younger kid's play area next to the thrills so different age ranges in a group can coexist without one or the other getting bored while the other group has their 'turn' so to speak. the kids areas are always well separated from the bigger attractions, so I like the look of this.

also - #safetysurfacing!

Check out those shades. So shady 

[themagician]

If this area turns out like the concept art, I’d argue that this is the best expansion the park has ever done. H20 zone was great at the time, but other than rides, it didn’t really other anything else to that area. This expansion offers something for everyone, shade, new bathrooms and potentially even new food outlets

I'll reserve judgment until I see the finished product... #Vortex

You're right. who knows what happens to these shade budgets these days.

I hope beer outlets so my son can splash around and I can have a splash too...

This area will indeed look amazing and have that fresh feel to it. Whitewater West do a great job when it comes to park design. The stuff they have done with parks in recent years shows. The shade will be a welcomed addition for anyone but mainly the families.

The soft play floor will be great for littles ones feet, Much like at MW & SW in those splash pad areas.

I am really looking forward to these slides. Super Ripper & Kaboom look like amazing raft slides with the later being a great hybrid water slide. I don't think the concept art will differ too much from the final product. As mentioned Whitewater West are really good at planning and delivering a product and project.

Excellent photos, Interesting to see the translucent piece tho.

I do hope no one gets, the "heebie jeebies" from walking up this tower tho .

[themagician]

They’ve updated the concept artwork on the website. And confirming that those slide pieces installed are for Kaboom. And the platform above them is the max height for double barrel and super ripper.

[Im Hungry]

I'd be disappointed if a lift for the Kaboom rafts weren't installed. All those stairs to climb while holding that thing...

[fletch]

Can't remember if this has already been brought up but I can't stand the fact they are calling it "Kaboom!". Sounds really lame imo, doesn't really give that excitement like it should.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You’re going to be disappointed then 

[GoGoBoy]

The best additions at WnW in my opinion were Whitewater Mountain and Calypso Beach. It was the first time they brought strong thematic elements and a real sense of international standard excitement to the park. It has been disappointing that since then they went back to generic additions with no theming and a distinct lack of imagination

Wet n wild don’t do lifts (other than on Mammoth) haha. Can’t be any worse than carrying the tornado rafts…
