gabelogan99 Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 You all might remember me creating a quiz about a year ago about PKI. Now it's a little outdated, so I'm going to tweak it just a little. Boomerang Bay has an attraction called Crocodile Run. Is this the former Lazy River? And what about the Great Barrier Reef? Is this the former Wipeout Beach? I can't assume anything, so I'm sorry if these are dumb questions. I'm sure they made improvements to them, but they seem to be essentially the same thing. Please let me know about any other former WaterWorks attractions with new Boomerang Bay names. Quote
Dane Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 Crocadile Run = Lazy River Great Barrier Reef = Wave Pool (Got painted ocean blue) Wipeout Beach = Surfer's Paradise I won't spoil what they did to some of the rides. Quote
gabelogan99 Posted May 21, 2004 Author Posted May 21, 2004 I didn't realize it hadn't opened to the public yet... Quote
PkiJake13 Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 ^It hasn't, Saturday and Sunday it's open for Gold Pass Holders only. Then Next Saturday it opens up to every body else on Memorial Day Weekend. -Jake mod edit: Get hooked on phonics please...... Quote
coasterrz Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 With the weather here in Cincinnati, I`m sure BB will be crowded this weekend with Gold Pass Holders. With the temperature up in the mid 80`s and the heat index in the 90`s, it is pretty hot outside! And I`m sure that 78 degree water will feel pretty nice. Quote

I was feeling that all day today at PKI while working. Hot, sticky, ............ gross! Quote
chaotichazard Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 God I can't wait until it opens to the public. Quote
DA RIPPER Posted May 25, 2004 Posted May 25, 2004 I liked it , I was there saturday and the place looked great . it wasn't what i thought it was going to look like when it was explained to me by jeff seibert's tour last fall . I thought there was suppose to be boardwalks ? maybe that's yet to come but everything else looks great the publics going to enjoy the new park, I won't spoil it for anybody who hasn't been there . Good job PKI! Quote
coasterrz Posted May 25, 2004 Posted May 25, 2004 The one complaint that I had, is in regards to the concrete. I do like how they broke up the sea of concrete with planters. However, it is still a long walk from the wave pool to the older side. The concrete is still quite hot. I know that Jeff had mentioned some sort of treatment was supposed to be placed on the concrete, but obviously it was never put down. I think if they were to put the stuff down on the concrete that they put down by the water fountain that says Boomerang Bay it might make the concrete more bareable. I know Jeff did mention on the tour in January that if they had time they were going to put a treatment on the concrete, so maybe they ran out of time. Quote
Beastfreak Posted May 25, 2004 Posted May 25, 2004 However, it is still a long walk from the wave pool to the older side. Did you want them to move the wave pool and everything over? Quote
beastdude Posted May 26, 2004 Posted May 26, 2004 No he just wants a waiter to carry him over. It is chair by chair service. lol Quote
