flightoffear1996 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Looks like the Beach might be giving away some of their old water slides for those that have the equipment to move it. https://cincinnati.craigslist.org/zip/d/mason-assorted-commercial-water-slide/7037085238.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombraiderTy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 That's... one way of disposing of your old rides. I'm pretty sure these are some slides they purchased from Wyandot Lake years and years ago... they've been sitting there since at least 2009, and those pictures on Craigslist show it. Here's an aerial shot of them, from 2009. More pictures from same flight here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I wonder if Kings island would want any of those slides? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombraiderTy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Here's what the slides looked like back at Wyandot Lake, for anyone curious. Picture courtesy Derek Ruth: df 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick44 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Ahhh yes Zuma Falls! I loved that complex growing up! its so sad that they bought those slides and just let them sit. ugh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Those slides have been rotting out in the elements for a decade. There is no lasting value there. The Beach had to move a bunch of crap that they had in the field behind what was Beach Mountain since the hotel was built and that stuff kind of sat on the property line. None of this surprises me.

Outdoor Man Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 so... will there be a beach this summer? I hear conflicting reports and there's nothing on the website or FB page to indicate one way or the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick44 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 ^^ I'd like to know as well. I have always loved driving past it on they way to KI. I would hate to see it leave. This makes really upset they bought those slides from Zoombezi Bay and just let them rot. You can see the slides just chilling on google maps.

There are many people who would still like clarification as to what 2020 holds for The Beach. Many who have a far more vested interest than any of us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
