medford Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 oldiesman, that's a fair point, but those attractions, specifically the sight lines from 71 is my general reference point over the last 10 years. There appeared to be a few more people yesterday. Now for all I know, perhaps several of those slides aren't ready yet, which could explain a lot, there could be a ton of activity in other parts of the park, which is why I asked. I hope the park works out and remains a staple for a long time as a nice alternative to Soak City and KI. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Noticed something on our way up to Columbus on Friday. The Cliff water slide, the big red one you see from I-71, really needs a repaint as it almost looks pink or magenta now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 ^ Looked fine to me when I was at The Beach on the 7th. Has it really faded that much in three weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 ^I'm going to be headed up that way in a couple of weeks when I go for the Haunt, might try and get a picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medford Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Haven't seen anything posted on this, but I've been watching them clear land for the last 2 seasons and start installing new slides. According to their website, which seemingly the forum won't let me link to (I've also had issues trying to quote someone, if anyone has solutions) I am assuming this new attraction is going to be called Rip Tide Racer, a 4 person across racing slide that by the picture appears to be on mats, head first. Not much up on the park's site other than a mention and 1 picture. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoChickens Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Not to detract from the obvious appeal, but a thread that hasn't been posted on since 9-30-14, is marked as "hot"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the link: http://www.thebeachwaterpark.com/public/rides_and_attractions/real_thrill/index.cfm Not to detract from the obvious appeal, but a thread that hasn't been posted on since 9-30-14, is marked as "hot"? The "HOT" label is applied to any thread that contains more than a certain fixed number of posts (30, I think). It is not based on the frequency of posts or how long of a period of time those posts are spread out over, only on the total number of posts. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoddaH1994 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Do not expect Rip Tide Racer to open with the park on May 23rd. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medford Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Still can't get the quote feature to work, but Boddha is correct, not only should you not expect it to be open, its a good ways away from being finished off, at least as far as I can tell from 71. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Still can't get the quote feature to work, If you're using Internet Exploder 11, there is a known issue with the forum software that prevents the quote feature from working in that browser. The only workaround I know of is to use a real browser like Firefox or Chrome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medford Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 thanks, JC, I figured that out yesterday when I switched over to see if that was the issue. Old habits die hard. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
