CoasterGeek101 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Hey Guys, I was able to go to Soak City's VIP weekend for Gold and Platinum passholders on Sunday and I got some pictures for you. I was very impressed with the new water park. I like it better than Boomerang Bay. The new wave pool made the old one not as crowded. The new paint gave the slides a new and fresh feel. Here are some of the pictures. The Rest can be viewed here: http://coastergeek101.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=40&page Anyone have any thoughts now that you have some pictures to look at?

DropZone99 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks for the photos! Soak City turned out REALLY well! See how far a little paint can go *Cough*Flight Deck*cough*? I would love to see CF do what HW does and add attractions to the water park as much as they add to the dry side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browntggrr Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Nice pics. I laugh at the negative FB comments; some are upset about getting wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Pineapple Pipeline looks great now. Did the paint the inside of the slides as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGeek101 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys. I forgot my trunks so I didn't go on any of the slides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKrazy Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Has anyone had a chance to try out the new Splash River? Based on the photos, it doesn't look like they really did much as far as improvements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGeek101 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 They made tons of improvements to the Lazy River! there are tons of palces where you get wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterGeek101 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Yeah that sign reminded me of Spongebob as well! And BB1, I notice you really miss Boomerang Bay.... what makes it soooo different from Soak City?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 They made tons of improvements to the Lazy River! there are tons of palces where you get wet. My favorite is the buckets and sprayers on the bridge near what used to be Down Under Thunder. I could spend an hour soaking people with those things. In fact, I did just that on Saturday.

CoasterGeek101 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 ^Is this what you are talking about? I had fun soaking some of the people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 ^ Exactly! I spent most of my time on the other side of the bridge. My arms are just barely long enough to reach out and hold the buckets up, but I can reach them. The streams that you use to fill them up are tricky, because if you reduce the water pressure on one, the pressure goes up on the other, so if the person next to you is just playing with that stream, it can be very difficult to fill up the bucket. But when you get two people on the buckets that understand that issue and know to set both streams to fill the buckets and not turn them off when the buckets are full, you can have a lot of fun.

CoasterGeek101 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Hahaha thanks for letting know. Its so funny how people over react when its just water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Hahaha thanks for letting know. Its so funny how people over react when its just water. Yeah. Why do half the people that go by not want to get wet? Hello! You're in a waterpark, people! Don't think using that empty tube as a shield is going to keep you dry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGeek101 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Hahah I know. If you don't want to get wet than don't come to a dang water park!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
