They moved it up and down a few times this was as far up as it went, they’d lift it up do a bit of work then drop it back down. I waited a fair while hoping it went to the top 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HussRainbow87 220 Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 Ahhh that’s the sound we like to hear. I just hope SeaWorld do the ride justice and give it a good cycle. Wipeout ain’t got nothing on these! There’s a reason why soo many Top Spins exist compared to the Waikiki Waves! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most likely the machine is reasonably priced, easy to operate, maintain, and is less prone to breakdowns (low downtime). All owner/operator benefits. But IMO, a modern version of a Vekoma Waikiki Wave / Zamperla Suspended Windshear will always win in terms of rider satisfaction, non-rider guest wow factor, and ride sensations. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t think I’ve ever seen HUSS and Moderately Priced in the same sentence before. Not sure that you’ll ever see a modern version of a Waikiki wave to gain some rider satisfaction and guest wow factor...

I got to see what looked like a normal cycle but was to far away to film it. Plenty of spins. But then it seemed like they were doing a lot of Estop tests, I’ll be back in a few days hopefully it’s filled with test dummies and doing full cycles and I can film 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
