jla Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 I would like to see a water coaster and some new slides. other water parks seem much better. 3 Quote
GamesAndRides Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 The water park just got re-done in 2012... 4 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 ...if you call adding one new attraction, tweaking the lazy river, and slapping some new paint on here and there redoing the whole water park. 9 Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 And by tweaking you mean ruining, right? 4 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Depends on your perspective. I prefer the new configuration. What's the point of going to a waterpark if you don't want to get wet? 2 Quote
LordSkippy Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Although it might have been a bit boring, the old iteration of what is now Action River was at least somewhat relaxing - one might even say lazy. 3 Quote

purdude86 Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 I would like to see a few additions to the water park as well. We need a water coaster and a signature slide tower. 6 Quote
GamesAndRides Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 Id love for a Mack Water ride... Only can dream about it 5 Quote
sheikra_rocks Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 ...if you call adding one new attraction, tweaking the lazy river, and slapping some new paint on here and there redoing the whole water park. I would say that all of these things classify as either "improvements" or "updates". 7 Quote
BB1 Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 I'd like a few slides instead of the wavepool . 3 Quote
westcoaster Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 add a water coaster, would be great, a lazy river , and yes move Congo falls over Would be incredible: 1 Quote
BB1 Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 add a water coaster, would be great, a lazy river , and yes move Congo falls over Would be incredible: No, keep the congo where it is at, I don't want Splashin' Safari Ohio where my waterpark is. 4 Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 I'm just happy the water park comes free with admission. It spreads out the crowds, shortening the coaster lines on a hot summers day. 13 Quote
RollerNut Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 All water rides dont belong in a water park, having Congo Falls and Whitewater Canyon outside of it spreads them out so that guests dont have to go to the same area to cool off. I am also pretty sure Intamin requires a shirt and shoes for their water rides. 5 Quote
BeastForever Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Pilgrim's Plunge didn't require me to wear a shirt and shoes to ride when I was at HW last year... Quote
TheCrypt Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Pilgrim's Plunge is also not located in Ohio. 9 Quote
JTW Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 I've seen people go shirtless on WWC many times. Quote
malem Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 I am also pretty sure Intamin requires a shirt and shoes for their water rides. Pilgrim's Plunge is also not located in Ohio. See also Thunder Canyon at CP. Neither shoes nor shirts are required by the park on that ride. 9 Quote
DJSkyFoxx Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 It seems like a park can never be both an incredible dry side and wet side...they will always invest more into one side than the other and I personally would rather a new coaster than a new water slide any day...but at the same time I see all your points. It would be nice if there could be at least one really cool slide or water coaster in the water park. 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 There was one park with a dry wet side... Poor Geauga Lake, was such a great little park..ah well Also having shirt shoes moreover caters to Manufacturer policies and safety procedures, as well as park mandates. Think, DB could technically be a ride w/o shoes on esp if you wear flip flops. However due to the terrain back there and for evac purposes, shoes are required to ride. 2 Quote
sikkinixx99 Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 I forget the name of it but I really miss the big log flume that was over by The Beast. I enjoyed that ride how high up it went and back into the woods man it was nice. 6 Quote

Nick_Plummer Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 To be honest, I didn't even consider going to the water park this year. I think they could put some way better water rides in there like Big Boa Falls at the Columbus Zoo's waterpark. 1 Quote
elyk Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Same here. I just didn't feel the need to go to Soak City this year because there are no good water rides. They have some decent slides, but Soak City is definitely lacking that major attraction (watercoaster) that other water parks have. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free 1 Quote
Skywriter Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Just remember walking through the woods without shoes hurts. 1 Quote
BloodBlade21 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 It would be nice to see a new slide complex. Maybe a pair of speed slides or some enclosed tube slides life Eerie Falls at CP Soak City (A water coaster would be nice but considering the large amount of capital dropped on Banshee this year I highly doubt CF would want to spend several million on a water coaster). The last new slides added to SC were Mondo Monsoon and Rendezvous Run back in 2004 so even though they revamped it in 2012 it could still use a new attraction. 4 Quote

Kat Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I say keep the new wave pool but get rid of the tubes (safety hazard), get rid of the old wave pool and add a water coaster. 1 Quote
