  1. Went there today Rich. Control room was have all the wires installed and there were trenches with the wires too, no sign of ride yet. Also Thunder River Rapids was getting repiped. Took some photos too can be seen at link below. http://ozcoaster.net/ ian
  2. when at park on wednesday a staff member said cliffhanger as name.
  3. as joz would know from talking to him at work today. Movieworld are looking at something Big they have some ideas of different things that may work. But that all I will say as my position is getting alot better in the company now a days which means I need to keep certain stuff quiet or between inside workers like Joz. and to the comment outback crap you need to know that Paradise Country is been built from the overseas market not the Sydney thrill market so in my opion work has made a great little side park to cater for this.
  4. yeah superman coaster not going to happen but what will in next few years will be big.
  5. just a update for you guys Kanook is eating much better now which is a good thing and comes out just before opening to walk around the attraction before getting tired and heading in to her Air Condition Den for the rest of the day.
  6. posted by Scott Well thats something Me and Joz will never have to worry about with the new entry system work has given us.
  7. I was talking to DW management today at MW yes at MW anyway a Male and Female were doing a tour of our rides this morning but I wont give you there names because its not you business anyway. I asked them about the new ride at first they were like what ride? but after I told them I knew the industry as I worked at MW and knew the American parks really well they opened a bit more specially after I mention the LOTTE WORLD GYRO SWING which bought a shocked look. Anyway what she did say was September and name isnt 100% yet. P.S The 10:30 to 11:30 period in winter at MW is so much better then DW due to Police Acamedy because you get more ride time at MW. Durning the winter all parks do around the 2000 mark well today there was about 2000 in police acamedy at 10:30 to 11:45 and the attendance was 2100 so there was only 100 people in the rest of the park so I got WWF,Lethal, Scobby and Batman done in the same time it would probably take someone to board Cyclone at DW
  8. had training at work today and was finished by 10am so decided to get some rides done before going home. About 3/4 of the way up the lift hill on the final drop it has a new theme which is Dark with tin sheding and sign and dynamite. also all the water features on the ride eg Geyser ect now soak the boat each time so you will get wetter thoughout the course.
  9. It was really quiet people wise at Dreamworld yesterday rich the op's were yelling for people watching Wipeout to ride it instead. Anyway photos are up from yesterday visit at link below.
  10. went to dw today lots has happen lots of steel noodles everywhere and the big hole has concrete going into it
  11. as a photographer by trade I would say Nikon the Canon as they are the best 2 brands out there and at least 4mega pixels. also storm runner looks like a blast Ive done xcellerator and dude wait for the front row of the rocket coaster its worth it.
  12. They have been no rumors about that at work. Next week is a private staff event which will tell the future hopefully but only staff will know what the future holds for now.
  13. I have no idea on effects as im too busy working in the middle of the park taking photos dont have time for rides. plus I would rather eat of my breaks the hope in line with the general public
  14. Cow That Swings Cow Swinger Cow And Monkey Cyclone Cow 2 Cow of Doom
  15. ^at SRM last year a ACE female fell out of Raven the wooden coaster as they were all riding with there lap bars half up for major airtime. As for B&M Ive ridden Medusa which is a Floorless very nice ride I must say but I would like a flyer themed to Superman. But I can say right now work wont be getting any coaster soon but will be getting things just cant say right now.
  16. and be prepared for the EDR food too :eek:
  17. I need to say something too. After 10 years of traveling to International Parks and working at a major one over here I need to say This is DW major downfall the guys above are all correct DW customer service is like a donkey's ass at times. Where DW has more Attractions and Rides then the other parks which is a postive its the staffing side which is appauling. they run 1 op on most rides the staff are in no way as friendly as most at WVTP and WL. I feel the management need to get rid of this costcutting and put more staff on if you go to most parks in the world there are more ops, and cyclone is perfect proof of this. I sometimes wait longer in the queue at DW then I do at Disneyland. also Fright Night sold out at 10:30 am so Dw must of known the day before that they were getting near 3000 so they should have put more staff on.
  18. ^no need Slick Because I will still be calling it "Thing That Swings" Ian"you should see my nickname for cyclone"Clark
  19. thanks for the kind comments guys, maybe I will look at the B@M one as my next photoshop. posted by Schwarz_freak well seeing the only photo of a compact gryo swing was the small one on Drayton manor web site I think it will do seeing as im not entering a art comp just giving a rough guide to what it could look like. posted by Belgian I would love the big version I have a video of the one at PKI in Ohio, USA but I think we will get the compact version. posted by Daniel only took about 5 mins to be honest getting lots of pratice with my work photos. posted by GoBoi Nah what it was is everytime I took a photo I would yell "people there a V.I.P shoot going on please bugger off" but seriously there would have been around 2000 people. I think ive answer all the question Ian
  20. i got bored so took a photo of the gryo swing next to wipeout http://www.ozcoaster.net/theozcoasternetwo...1mar/large4.php also check out the april 10th park update http://ozcoaster.net/theozcoasternetwork/u...dw31mar/dw1.php
  21. Glad to hear they have a new CEO ready to take over and there is no mucking around in the hiring area like some places. I news about Tony was confirmed to me a couple of weeks back at work by by boss a few days after kenny post I just think sometimes it beeter to wait for a press release first like rich has done. well here to more sucess for DW
  22. ^reason being copyrights anything that goes into WBMW must have something to do with Warner Bros or partner movies. I Know the Melbourne office of WVTP talk with the Hollywood owners. and I would say we may select a ride but the copyrights must be approved ect. Thats where say DW or SW have it alot easy with ride names like wipeout ect but WBMW is like Disney it must be themed to a product eg Batman.
  23. just put more photos up if anyone is intrested http://ozcoaster.net/updates/dw2203/dw1.php
  24. I think over the next year some of your guys answer involving MW will come out Ive heard certain things being moved reopened in the coming future just cant say all right now for ovious reasons
