  2. Adventure World 30/1/19

    in Theme Park Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Gazza

    Park was busy today with what I would say around 4,000 people there. While at the park today a few things I have noticed, Along with the perviously discussed misting system that was installed in the Kraken queue they have installed a hose system that sprays water onto the path for the Tidal Wave & Sea Serpents queue along with new flooring and railings. As mention earlier in another thread the Aussie Wildlife experience has reopened. However this area personaly could still use more work to really make it lively. 

    Rampage is still closed and a staff member said it was awaiting a new part, Goliath was closed all day but opened at 6:15pm giving 45 minutes of cycle time before the park closed at 7pm. Seemed like the issue was with the floor not dropping properly. (But thats a guess) Good to see maintenance working all day to get it up and running ASAP to avoid having it out of service during peek season.

    A Shipping container has been placed next to the Moat and the Container was opened and then closed later on and some movement was happening around the area. Not sure if its MI-4 related or for something else.

    So a few points from to recent visits:

    AW Nights Saturday Night: Was very popular compared to last week. With a massive queue at the front of the park before the event had opened. The Goliath, Kraken queues both filled and over flowed and Abyss went down to the bottom queue race. The food trucks and band had been moved closer to the main lawn making the area feel more lively. 

    On my recent visit yesterday the park was fairly busy for a Monday and it was good to see Rampage running lots of full cycles. (Not happy being forced to go on it 3 times in a row tho. :( ) Its good to also see a new misting system up in the Kraken Queue line which does help keep people cool.

    @Aw hype so in regards to Rampage they re painted it last season, and during this last off season they re did all the wiring, replaced the seating and put a new type of restraint system on it. Yes its an extreme ride and I personally find one ride is enough. But with the money spent on it I think it will be there for at least 5 years. 

    Now the island had been cleaned up over recent visits. It was quite over run with leave and has since been cleaned.

    Hey guys, thought this would be the right place to ask the question. Around what sort of temperature do most rides have to close? Would a 36 degree day result in the closure of many rides?

    I believe your talking about adventure world? It’s roughly 41 degrees coasters like Abyss close down as steel starts to bend. This has happened a few times each season. Most other slides and rides would operate. It would probs be more of it being to hot for the ride operators to work. (Being 45 degrees and up)
