Jose Eber Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Just testing the waters (pun not entirely intended). Is it worth posting photos of Crush N Gusher completed (March 13)? J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Yes! Remember that some of us here are more Waterpark Enthusiasts than Roller Coaster ones! If you can get some great pictures I'd really appreciate it. I'd love to see some onride, and the loading area pix too. Elissa "possibly going out to ride those in April!"

socalMAN123 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Yeah, Elissa is right, most coaster entusiasts also enjoy waterparks the same. Actually, I've never heard of it, please post them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCTfan Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Tomorrow is a Cast Preview day, so I may go tomorrow. But first, tomorrow is Skydiving day! There is another Cast Preview day on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Eber Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 please post them! Well for now, to look at construction progress (up till a month ago) look at my signature or www for the page. Selected images were featured on Mouseplanet and Screamscape. Here is a sample: Until Sunday, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Looks a lot like Dragon Blaster at Schlitterbahn...the public will LOVE this ride. I hope they manage to have better capacity than most of the other blasters! Elissa "is there still more theming to be done? I thought it was supposed to be more immersive" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Eber Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 Elissa "is there still more theming to be done? I thought it was supposed to be more immersive" Alvey To be honest? No, it really hasn't changed much from that. I was a little disappointed with the artwork and theming. I would have LOVED a mountain. But that get's prob. very expensive and hard to rationalize. One good thing: (or impressive thing) vegetation. They spent a LOT of money on that. Every tree you see in the 'LEFT picture' is transplanted. That whole site was razed (again, see my mini site) It was crazy all the plants they brought in. There are three slides and it looks like you walk to the top and that's where the slide starts...I was hoping you'd rocket up but...whateva. I'm just glad we got a Water Coaster and I'm glad choosing between BB and TL will be hard now. Awesome position to be in this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Ill see if I can get there (though I prefer Blizzard Beach more) this April. Still up in the air but my girlfriend is a college castmember right now. Unfortunatly, because shes an Advanced Intern, she only gets into parks for free. Water Parks dont count (theres a bunch of other rip offs too...Disney lost a few points with me there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugged One Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Sweet, I had no idea that this was going to be opening so soon in the spring. Hmm, looks like a little early May trip down to Florida to try out this and Sheikra might in the cards after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisZer0 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Niiiiice. I wonder how much Disney had to fork over to Schlitterbahns' parent company for the ride,systems and technology behind it? From the looks of it, the theming is alot better than the original Master Blaster at the New Braunfels park.

Jose Eber Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 Niiiiice. I wonder how much Disney had to fork over to Schlitterbahns' parent company for the ride,systems and technology behind it? There are quite a few companies that do 'water coasters'. I can think of at least three off the top of my head Jose "IAAPA is very informative" Eber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I love Typhoon Lagoon and can't wait to ride that one.... There has been CM previous already. Seen some pictures of people on the slide. (Sorry can't remember where...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalMAN123 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Those are some nice pictrues. I wish I could get a trip down there, but sadly enough, I probably won't. Anyway, looks like a great slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
