I love how this started as a DW VS MW forum and now we’re dissecting top spins.

It's a miracle none of the residents complained about the new area when they got on their high horse about Volare.

Has luna park sydney pulled the plug on 2 classic rides

Well that aged well. -
When do you think Big Dipper and Sledgehammer will be installed?

Vortex has a higher minimum age than DCR? What?
-
Checked on DW website and claw indeed has a minimum age of ten. I swear I rode it before 10. Also, how can they enforce it when some 9 year olds look like teens. Also at the Royal Easter Show, some ops have let me on rides even if I'm too short. It's also the same with the Giant Drop.

I've always been interested in heights restrictions on rides. I got a few questions: 1. What's the highest height requirement for a ride? 2. Do you think they'll ever make a adjustable restraint? 3. Why does DCR have a age requirement?

Trains revealed for Little Nipper :

Why don’t they just rename it “ Dreamworld Tower ”, the unofficial name of the tower. Also, I always used to think the drop tower was name Tower Of Terror.

March 2021 weather and flooding closes Gold Coast theme parks
Ranger replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Finally, they added a massive lazy river to Wet N Wild Gold Coast. -
So if they did build a second gate, what would you want from it?

What's with this second gate talk??? Did I miss something?

Wet N Wild Sydney was hyped up to be a major theme park for NSW. It promised a buffet of rides, attractions and experiences. Posed as Sydney's answer to the big Gold Coast Theme Parks, everyone though it was going to be the new hit. Then it opened. For the most part, the park was a hit with locals. Look at it now and it's debatable if it can even hold up to Jamberoo. Heck, it was sold and rebranded. So I pose two question: 1. Was Wet N Wild a financal failure, 2. Was it and is it still a good park in your eyes.

1:21:00. ( from what I've seen it doesn't show Wonderland )

Was this a dumb question?

The London Resort is a proposed mega resort that is going to be in Kent, UK. This is a massive resort, spanning 465 hectares. Before I get into the details, you need to know some history. It was first announced in 2012 under the name Paramount London Entertainment Resort. As the name suggests, it was going have Paramount IP's in then resort, a bit like the old Kings Island. The first gate had a original opening date of 2019. The park then split with Paramount in June 2017, renaming themselves The London Resort. In 2019 however, the park obtained the rights to put Paramount IP's in the park. Things really started to gather momentum when, in 2020, The London Resort had a public consultation period. The proposal has just been put forward to the UK government for approval. The Plan When visitors first enter the park, they will walk into High Street, the Main Street U.S.A of the park. I'm not expecting any rides in this area, as it's the entrance. Expect shops, restaurants and arenas. Branching off, visitors can visit The Studio, described as a gritty, modern day warehouse studio. There will most likely be a backlot tour and maybe a stuntshow. Next up is The Woods, a enchanted realm with a focus around classic stories like Jack and the Beanstalk and other classics. The next land is the Kingdom, a medieval themed land with dragons and knights. It also has a wooden coaster in it. Then there's the Isles, which will be a land of mythical beasts. Then there's the Jungle, based around the ruins of a lost civlization. Finally, there's Starport, a sci - fi themed area. `

In case you missed it, the company behind the London Resort has just submitted plans to the UK government to get approval to start construction on the new mega park in Kent. This park looks amazing, a mix between Six Flags style rides and Disney level theming.

There's no doubt in my mind that theme parks all over the world have been hit hard by COVID - 19. However, if you take a step back and look at Australian theme parks, some major announcements have been made for our parks. Big Dipper, Actventure and the Big Banana expansion have all been announced.
