And transforms is made by a few companies including universal create and industrial light and magic which work with universal. So I doubt we will see something like that ride in Australia unless a universal studios comes here. It cost $100 million USD so take into account the exchange rate plus rights for the name and theme and our expensive labour rates and those factors it will cost more than $100 million.

I know that people complain about is the walk. But they then complain that the chair lift is to slow. I just feel like banging their heads together when people say that.

Read some of the comments on AW's Facebook page people are asking about if they could build stairs going up that hill. But their already is a set that has been there for years. See in image attached.

I am going to say I am very impressed by Mark and his teams efforts. When there are complaints or things mentioned you go out of your way to deal with them. I even remember last year when people said on here about the weeds under Abyss and the next day they were gone. Its must truly be a great team because that what it looks like to the public. I went to AW with cadets and everyone said AW is clearly spending a sh*t tone of money and is really taking a massive step forward. A lot of people also thought the theming made it feel like a theme park and not a fair ground. I really want to thank you Mark and your team for providing a world class theme park on our shores in WA. Its showing also by having reached maximum capacity. Thanks again.

Just going to put my 20 cents in. I went to AW the other day and went on the Kraken 8 times. When going up the hill yes the red bitumen was hot, however the cream strip really made a difference. To us the worst part was those little nuts from the trees that hurt the feet. But my feet were never 'Burnt to a crisp' and it was a 32 degree day. This was also before the hill had the shade nets installed.I can't comment on the queue because I had the fast past. But talking to people who waited in the queue I think if there was some signs that said the wait time. Like they have at disney and Universal Studios. (Electronic signs would work better on Kraken and Abyss) Would make for it better so people understand what they get themselves into. I also think this would work great for Kraken is to put water fountains in the queue line. On all of the Universal Studios outdoor queues they had them and when its hot outside they are a great blessing. However AW and Mark are clearly doing a great job and are trying to fix the situation.

Is free fall together now? On Sunday it was in peaches. I used the fast past and it was so much better than waiting. I will say Kracken is amazing and so great. Went on it 15 times with the fast pass. Well done Mark and team on the slide.

That would be the reason for why they open it on Boxing day. To try and encourage you to renew your season pass.

All I am going to say is google earth lately in some places have pictures 10 days apart. Not all are the best HD quality. But just saying...

But we will have to see if the new update on the Cyclone get it into the list.

I would say the follow IMO are the list for great coast in Australia Abyss Superman Scooby Jet rescue Storm Tunnel of Terror (Just because it was a world record ride for height and Speed)

Does anyone think movie world would put in an indoor special effects coaster by Dynamics?

Does anyone think that maybe it could be a water coaster for Wet N wild? We don't know for sure that its at Movie World. All I am saying is that we don't know for sure its at Movie World.

Do u mean like BSG at USS?

No I kept going with it I just never posted it onto here because people did not seem interested in it so I decided to stop posting them. However my computer did crash and get wiped so I lost the file that was downloaded.

I saw them both Earlier. I must say well done Mark and Team! They really help build up the story line for the water slide.

Oh they had that type of flooring at the Bird Park in Singapore. Let me say it was great on the feet.

Wait this is the park map locates next to the lagoon and near the Abyss area. Due to what's in the background. But why does it say you are here pointing to the front of the park?

Well done Mark and team. This is the best themed water slide I have ever seen. Not that I have seen any themed water slides before. But I think the attention to detail on this is amazing and now with all the other improvements to AW over the past few years are starting to merge together. I can't wait to ride it. ???

The attention to detail is amazing. I can't wait to go soon. I think Adventure World is putting WA on the globe stage and I think are putting the Gold Coast to shame.

Hi Mark, Well from what was put in the Today Tonight story, It looks AWesome. I can not wait to ride it and it looks very well themed. Thanks Tim

A picture from AW's Facebook page: and this is the link to the news report

So A few points that were mention in the story on Today Tonight: The name was officially announced as the Kraken. Which will be as we know the tallest, steepest and longest in the world. However you will never get the same ride experience twice. Due to having the seating arrangement and the way the tubes can enter.Its 2 rides put together. A long dark Mammoth and a Tornado feature along 260 Meters of adreneline.The Kraken is a mythical sea monster feared by sailers for centuries. The monster would submerge and make a giant vortex, which is what we have here with this slide.The story is that you are escaping the Kraken.You go into a little drop with a 360 degree turn then you have more slide sections making you way to the almost vertical drop into the tornado.There are almost 80 tornados in the world. Most just have the tornado, so that is what will set this one apart.AW have gone from the top of the hill making it a mammoth slide with the tornado.Can take up to 600 people an hour and basically, 'Chews threw people, Bit like the Kraken I guess.The Kraken opens this Friday.It seems to look nicely themed and I can't wait to ride it.

And I am stuck in Perth, doing stupid school assignments. Hope your having fun!
