Tops in Brisbane and Dazzeland in Adelaide spring to mind, but they are both closed now.

Like one of theseI have to admit the Cyclone coaster is not very good at all. I cannot undersatnd why Dreamworld would waste all that money on that piece of crap. It's lame, its slow and the first dip is ridiculous. Even a child could not find this ride thrilling. It should of been destroyed after it was removed from Luna Park in Sydney. Dreamworld should tear it down and replace it with a true coaster!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

But on the topic of City Walk, what does everyone think of the architectural style shown in the concept art? Personally I dont like the retro look that they are going for much. I would have liked it more if it were in more of a modern style, like QV im Melbourne, which is actually a good example to follow since it combines restaurants and shopping with tourist attractions.

Less Height + High Speed = More Airtime.

what if DW were the Franchisees.

It doesnt really matter if all the major chains are in the area. I know of A Safeway which is in line of sight down the road from another one, and its not far either, like only a block away. So i dont really think it will be a problem. And anyway, is there a Pick'n'Pay or a Big W in the area? Or what about a Myer. Plus they can always build plenty of specialty shops, and I imagine a fast food restaurant would do well there. people could grab some brekky from one in the morning after getting off the train, and then get tea after the park closes. But just a question, Is Coomera on the left side or the right side of the freeway in the supermarket photo?

I wonder if the Big Red Car Ride will just have "toot toot, chugga chugga...." playing in a continuous loop. It will be like Its a small world, DW style. As for farmyard friends becoming part of wiggles world, Bzzzzzz, wrong answer. Its just a stupid idea, Farmyard friends should remain a seperate entity.

So is the top hat like the one on Dodonpa?

Why do people keep calling it an overbank? Isnt an overbank where the banking gets past 90 degrees while the track goes up into the air before coming down again: http://www.rcdb.com/ig977.htm?picture=26 http://www.rcdb.com/ig594.htm?picture=5 The turn in that pic is more like a semi helix with a lot of banking, but not an overbank.

Thats sort of what I was thinking, its rather Odd for the park to be stagnant with its additions for a few years, and then all of a sudden have this big wave of new rides stretched out over a year. I think they must be preparing themselves for competition with DW. I have a feeling this could be a major battle ground between MLT and WVTP because it would be comparitivley cheap and easy to add in new rides. That is of course if DW decides to build a waterpark.

This is awesome, it is exactly the sort of thing WnW needs. Im looking foward to that tornado slide but too bad it wont be till next year. Still the many body slides whould be good. I like the sound of those spiral ones. By the sound of the press release its almoat as if they have read peoples ideas (Increase capacity, more body slides, tornado slide) straight off the forums

I reckon if they wanted they could turn it into a racing attraction.

Your eyes may be closed.

Reminds me of Millenium force.

I have been to both back when I lived in SA. I remember dazzeland having a Helicopter ride, an airplane ride, dodgems, a big playground and mexican mini golf as well as the jazz junction. The park was pretty good from memory, but I was 5 years old then so even a maccas playland impressed me
As for magic mountain, There were the 4 big watersildes, a suspended cycle monorail, mini golf, an arcade, bumper boats and a carousel. The waterslides were definitley the best thing there. The place looked nice from the outside, but inside the mountain where all the waterslides were it was just hollow and was like a warehouse with a big zig zag ramp running up through it. The waterslides all snaked their way down throughthe inside of the mountain with the odd section outside the mountain and were open flumes so it wasnt very dark inside. I remeber the slides actually having advertising on them on perspex panels that were attached to some sections of the slide.
One cool thing was a u turn that was cantilievered outside the mountain over the beach, it seemed very precarious up there like that. -
If that is the case then Im really hoping for lap restraints. But weve got some ugly top hat supports up now which is cool. The ride looks quite big.
-
Won't that make more work for the park since they are actually deciding to approve every photo. Wasnt that the problem in the first place?
-
Meh, doesnt matter any more since photos are allowed again.
-
Are there any new conditions attached that werent there before the ban?
-
Wasn't there also a James Bond ride?
-
If citywalk had a multideck as its parking (which it probably will) That could replace DWs current carpark, which could then be developed.
-
The ride film is the coney island cylone track from NL. But with some added visual effects and sounds.No limits simulator Gazza? -
LOL, the No Limits simulator.• Sea X Plorer Simulator -
Im not very knowledegable about the geography of dW. Where exactly would the citywalk come in to dreamworld. Also, will it be built on DW land?

When i vist DW at the end of this year I will probably get a 2 day pass just to be safe. If I do happen to get everything done in one day then the second day would just be a bonus.
