  1. Why would LPS only post a partial POV when in the media kit they have a full one?
  2. Anyone notice how DW changed their logo on their website to the OG opening day one?
  3. I know this might be a stupid question to ask but does Steel Taipan have a mode where it can go through the full course without doing a rollback?
  4. Phew, I thought they were going to shut down Movie World.
  5. TBH, I like the look of The New Atlantis. Sure, it doesn't have much theming but if you just base it of asthetics, it looks pretty nice.
  6. Might not be as fast as the Raptors but it has still got a lot of whip in it. Yes it’s short but it packs a decent amount of elements.
  7. Ok, so a update on the park that always promises to start construction any day but then wa la, the developers need one more approval or a new construction permit. So firstly, on the 12th of November, Sanad Capital posted this article ( https://www.sanadcapital.com.au/post/endless-surf-sunshine-coast-surf-pool ) that stated Actventure would ' likely to begin work in November with the entire attraction ready for a grand opening at Christmas, 2023.' Then a week ago, Sanad posted another article stating site preparations would begin in weeks ( https://www.sanadcapital.com.au/post/making-waves-on-steve-irwin-way-what-the-cutting-edge-endless-surf-attraction-will-look-like ). Is this a scam or what? It kinda seeks like Sanad are dragging their heels??? Or am I just nieve and this is how long stuff takes?

  9. * see’s a post about vaccines on Parkz * Me: oh, this is going to be fun. Real fun.
  10. I went on opening night after rebooking multiple times due to Covid. The park was buzzing and Halloscream was great. I got there a bit before rope drop and there was a lot of people there. We had booked a night session. You honestly couldn't tell the park was capped at 75% but I felt like the park was pretty safe. We had no problem having our vax status checked and you could tell it was a well organized system. This was my first Halloween event at a park and it was really enjoyable. The scare maze I experienced, Outback Slaughterhouse, was a great maze with lots of jump scare's and actors. What impressed me the most was how it smelt like a proper animal slaughterhouse. There was lots of street entertainment but you couldn't hear the actors. Now onto the rides. Now, obviously Sledgehammer was closed which really annoyed me as they had ages to make sure it was going. Maybe they couldn't get it certified in time but seriously, are you going to open a expanded LPS without your signature new attraction. I can maybe excuse that as growing pains but what I can't get past is that two of the other key rides, WM and Rotor were also shut. Like come on, you reopen after eight months of being closed and you can't manage to get your major rides open. Also, the operations on Hair Raiser were awful. The ops were really nice but jeez, they we're slow. Anyway, I had a enjoyable time and I think my criticisms will be ironed out over the coming months.
  11. Is SH under maintenance or is it just a glitch because a lot of other rides are under maintenance?
  12. Well guys, today is the day. LPS finally opens and I'm going. Anyone else going?
  13. So, I've just noticed that on LPS website, Sledgehammer says it's down for maintenance.
  14. No sorry, I had a whole essay written but I accidently deleted it. Anyway here's my thoughts on a new park in NSW. It is inevitable that one day a major park will be built in NSW. NSW has a population of 8.16 million people, more than any other state in Australia. On top of that, NSW had 42.7 million tourists ( both international and domestic ) visit in 2019 ( pre covid remember ). So the arguement that ' NSW can't support a park ' is plain rubbish. Now for the big question is where would we put a park. There's only two options in my mind: Western Sydney or the Central Coast. Let's start with Western Sydney. I think a park on the banks of Penrith Lakes would be perfect. For the Central Coast. I really think a park in Gosford would be good. Redeveloping Old Sydney Town and turning it into a park would be fantastic.
  15. I was just thinking about making a forum about this yesterday. Ok, firstly I do see a new
  16. I do agree that there's a lot of Chinese tourists ( and other nationalities, may I add ) but yeah, I think the locals love it.
  17. Big news!!! LPS can reopen in October for fully vaccinated people with a capacity of 5,000 people. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-09/nsw-freedoms-for-fully-vaccinated-explained/100446378
  18. C'mon, heaps of domestic tourists go there.
  19. A quick note, if you want updates just go on JAP's instagram. Every Friday they post construction updates.
  20. It's a short ride. Wouldn't be complaining if we got one at LPS as a coaster is a coaster but I definitely prefer the Hot Racer.
  21. Scenic World, as you probably know, is a tourist attraction in the Blue Mountains. It has 3 ' rides ' ( if you could call them rides ), which are the Scenic Skyway, the Scenic Railway and the Scenic Cableway. It once had a coaster named Orphan Rocker which never opened to the public and has a multitude of rumours surrounding it ( Anetha Hammond, the founders daughter has debunked the rumors ) My questions are: 1. How would Scenic World be different if the Orphan Rocker was opened today? 2. Do you think Scenic World is a theme park? 3. Do you think Scenic World will add anymore ride?
