  1. Key points from the investor presentation: - sky voyager the most popular ride since opening - Coaster to start construction in the new year - Special events or entertainment to happen every holidays - waterslides to open for summer - the remaining slides to be painted early next year to be done by April Link below: https://clients3.weblink.com.au/pdf/ALG/02172235.pdf
  2. So the event grew to a a large level but it always rained out the event. So they decided to change it last season to Feb last season to get better weather which back fired. So this was the first year back during Halloween so they are building the event up again. However the park was packed out on the Sat night when the weather cleared. All major rides had 30-1 hour queues and the fog machines and contamination zones were out cos the weather cleared.
  3. Well I got a locker tonight didn’t want the rain, wind and hail to ruin my bag.
  4. Hi Amy, @iwerks and myself will be there on Thursday! So @iwerks always has camera equipment so he gets a locker. I personally leave my keys, wallet in my bag which I put next to a tree around the main lawn and I keep my phone on me unless I’m doing water slides. For dry rides you can store lose articles in boxes for every ride. With waterslides it’s the same but I wouldn't leave phones around water. Apparently pre ticket sales have been strong so could be a busy night. Hope that helps. Have you precooked a maze time?
  5. The new NCC 2019 version that come out is for any new buildings, this is what got sky voyager caught up cos they started the paperwork process after this fact. It would be a WPHSQ decision to force them to comply not a NCC issue. The only reason a building would be forced to comply with updated regulations is if you do major renovation work. (NCC Stands for National Construction code for those wondering)
  6. @A.H it was an attraction called Kiddie Creek which was a kids ride for those under 100cm’s I believe and they would go around the creek for one lap in a little boat. This attraction was remove the year Kahuna Falls opened.
  7. I can confirm they 100% can, the pool just needs to be widened and the other slide will start right next to the kraken conveyer belt.
  8. I would say a new proslide slapped next to Kraken utilising the same splash down pool and same conveyer belt might have been the plan? Am I right? 😀
  9. Slide parts will start to arrive next week according to Greg Yong on a Ausleisure interview.
  10. There is an American company that specialises in painting rides and slides and they have the special equipment to paint semi transparent slides. LPS hired them to paint some of their rides.
  11. Different manufacturer, the nitro is a Zamperla discovery and I’m not sure who makes the Extreme Thriller but it looks like a knock of on KMGs Freak Out ride design. Having done both of them yesterday the Extreme thriller pushes you downwards with a lot of force similar to the Intamin gyro swing and Nitro slowly pushes you out with more floater airtime.
  12. The team from Pollin/Aqua plex aqutica are finishing up in Perth this week with Outback splash and should be heading over soon. So I would expect to see slide parts turning up soon.
  13. Nope they aren’t, @iwerks is a great photographer and he does a great job, he takes these photos on his camera and uploads them while at the park. Plus these new slides are really shiny and the sun was shining bright.
  14. Scooby doo spooky coaster next generation needs a renovation.
  15. Yeah the graveyard is still there but has been cleared up recently, house some old stuff including some small parts of turbo Mountain roller coasters track section and supports.
  16. Would I be wrong in saying Australian amusement services?
  17. Not at this stage, trying to work out who owns it still. @iwerks and myself will be at the ride preview next Wednesday and hopefully can get some answers.
  18. Yeah new coaster at the royal show first time to debut in Australia a new spinning coaster from Malaysia.
