Vortex as seen from Dockside Tavern.
by Parkz, 3 years ago
Vortex
Sea World
As of June 2021, progress has slowed in the New Atlantis area. Currently there is no sign of work on the site of Trident.

Vortex now has proper metal property boxes attached to the fence, with covers to stop items getting wet. (They're similar to the ones at Batwing and Surfrider)

The jarring juxtaposition between the graceful sweeping 'wave wall' and the abrupt stainless steel fences that secure the ride perimeter is somewhat ill-conceived. A solution that combined the requirements for a safe ride with a cohesive atmosphere would have been far more welcome.

While neatly presented, the small area and bare landscaping means shade is scant. Surely we'll see beach umbrellas providing desperately needed shade before too long -- at the expense of the area's atmosphere and sightlines.

The soldier statue greeting guests is the first theming element guests see. and the first indication that it's a rather surface-deep concept with no further story or explanation.

The view from the queue back towards Dockside Tavern is superb.

The Vortex area is quite small, which has led to this rather obtrusive sign, rather than a more organic ride exit tucked away behind the attraction that wouldn't be likely to promote loitering or confused guests.

This aged and weathered effect comes off really well in some of the water features.

The artwork is striking and the detail is quite impressive.

The theming elements are well executed, though do little more than check boxes rather than advancing a cohesive atmosphere or story.

The light blue trim is an LED lighting strips that glows even in bright daylight, and will surely look impressive at night..

The ride's theming consists of several water feature walls and several embellishments such as this Vortex icon.

Riders board on platforms that lower beneath the ground when the cycle commences. This means that there's a very simple loose items procedure of placing items into haphazardly placed storage bins.

The pools look nice enough, but don't go far to advance either the Vortex concept or overall New Atlantis theme, while the stainless steel fencing is a tad imposing.

The ride's surrounds feature a series of water features that add atmosphere rather than offering a direct addition to the ride experience or theme.

Owing to an otherwise quiet and uneventful Monday morning, the first cycles to the public featured only a handful of guests.

And with that the ride was open after an arduous year of delays and setbacks.

The ride's cycle is fairly brief and tame for a Huss Topspin.
