Why not? You could explain why you don't believe that they won't put that ride up in '07, I assume you mean Paradise Plunge.
Paradise Plunge and Riptide – Speed Slides
Invigorating thrills await on these sky-scraping towers of downhill fun! Soar towards the waters below at up to 40 mph on two of the most fast-paced slides in the park. 48” height minimum. To bad its already at the park! That Website is for MEDIA NOT US! SF IS CLONING! AHHHHH!!!
^ The picture is still wrong..
SWF has been on that site for 4 months. "Paradise Plunge" picture is supposed to show off our slides. They didn't have a picture of our yet built slide at that time, so they used that one to show off the purple slide. The pic at our PR site is NOT a hint, lets just call it using what you got
SF IS CLONING! AHHHHH!!!
That's why I added a
Sorry...umm...I gotta say it. PB, you don't strike me as a um....WUSS...  *diving under bed*
For some odd reason when it comes to water slides I am a MAJOR wuss. I almost cried on Wahoo Racers. My nephew had to literally drag me on.
^You would think coasters would scare you more.

One would think....
I'm very weird about not being secured in with a harness... anything can happen. I can go on any coaster but come to water slides I'm a baby. The tube rides I'm ok with because I have something to hold onto.
I don't need to be a wuss because i'll probably never step foot in HH let alone ride anything.
Me neither. Unless they put something that is a must ride. Frank
I know what you mean! That's why I've always been so afraid to ride speed slides, (and also why I used to be a bit afraid to go on ANY slide) especially the Dragon at Deep River. You have nothing to hold onto but yourself, and they tend to sting your back a little. Sometimes on the Dragon people would sit up while going down and that's pretty scary.
Its worth riding everything atleast once...you may like the slides. http://themeparkcritic.com/scripts/profile/ViewProfile.asp?ViewID=2909
A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon! *****Are you ready to Rockit?!*****
^Agreed. Skull Island is a blast to hang out in and Wahoo Racers are awesome. Plus, just walking through it is awesome because the atmosphere is gorgeous. I think Tornado is a nice addition and you should really give it a try.

It looks fun, but its just way too crowded. I would never be able to do all of the stuff in one day like the slides, skull island, ect.
I may go this season, but it depends on how many times I get to go to the dry park. Frank
True....I personaly, like the "dry park" better than HH.
I get the same way! The one thing I've ridden that has scared me the most would definately be one of those freefall waterslides. Once was enough for that 
Also, that first diving curve on the Whizzer scared the crap out of me when I first rode it. Especially when the seatbelt let me slide all over the place. As far as Tornado goes, I'm not to excited about it. I never really had any burning urge to visit the waterpark last year, and I expect this year to be the same.

Finally Coaster Season!!
I sure hope HH will be less crowded this year. I also hope crowds from HH don't go into the regular park. I might go to HH if the crowds are reasonable.
^The key is to go on a cold day. I did that and Hurricane Harbor made that day one of my favorite trips to six flags ever. Did I mention how excited I am about Tornado?

I hope more of the slides are open. I remember a lot of days when there would be only one side of a water attraction open and the lines were long..

^That was my biggest con with the waterpark as well. I was there when at one point Hurricane Bay, Hurricane Mountain, the two bowl slides, and the two speed slides were all closed. In addition, lines were about 45 minutes for the other slides.

Any construction updates on this thing?
No progress. Parts are there, all the footers are done, landing pool is done, but they still haven't gone vertical yet.
