Ok, to get away from the flaming, what types of waterslides are you hoping that this waterpark will have? I am hoping for a proslide toilet bowl, but not the body model, the inner tube model. I am also hoping for a master blaster (who isn't).

I definitely want a drop slide. Call me crazy, but I think drop slides are more of an aldrenaline rush than roller coasters are.

About parking, they're paving some of the back lots and building a new lot east of the overflows right now...

I Would love a master blaster. The Body Version of the Toilet thingy. A Couple of Regular Body slides and tube slides, a drop slide, and a family tube slide. That would be a good line up in my opinoin. There will probably be a wave pool and a lazy river...but beyond that I really have no clue.

I can almost guarantee a wave pool, lazy river, children's treehouse water playground, tube slides, family raft slide, and body slides with at least one speed slide. Pretty much all of the newer Six Flags waterparks have those. I.g., SfStl and SfGadv.

well, when they built superman, you could clearly see they were building a rollercoaster when they tore down shockwave and started building a new ride, and they didnt annouce it till early spring. so its not mandatory to announce it before they build it

I think that if it will be of extra charge or if it will increase the cost of a season pass, you will see an early announcement for the waterpark. People will want to know why they are paying more and Six Flags will want to start selling season passes as soon as possible. An announcement will have to come this year.

Since people have been talking about it this is regarding the third quarter results. Last years was posted November 12th and the 2002 third quarter was posted on November 13th. Also like the recent one the webcasts were posted the following day. So I guess we can expect to hear the information about the waterpark in the 2nd week of November.

Just an idea, I don't know anything

Do you think its possable to cut costs, Six Flags might have bought out the water rides from the now closed-closing wet n wild waterpark in Las Vegas?

It wouldn't have been a bad idea, from what I heard it was a decent waterpark.

^ Hopefully that doesnt happen to us. Does anybody have any recent pictures of the construction site of the water park. Not the ones that were in the link on this site already some new ones. We all know that the water park will be built on parking lot B.

for Wet N Wild, I'm pretty sure those rides havent been put on the used ride market yet as the park just found out a month or so ago that they are getting kicked off their land. I hear Wet N' Wild is looking to relocate though.

Also relocated waterslides are a fairly rare thing as the most expensive part doesnt come with used slides (that being the splashdown pool), also dismantling, shipping, refurbishing, and rebuilding negates any savings, for a very small amount more you can get a brand new, far more modern waterslide.

Last time checked it was still being used for busses, with a new lot east of the overflows being built and a few other overflows being re-paved. Wouldn't be surprised if they've started groundwork for the waterpark by now though.

HEJ! I know where is it going to be!

Six Flags like big things, because it is the king of thrill. Well before you enter the park, you have to stop by the "toll pay" for parking! Right well when you finish paying for parking. You drive the i call it "Six Flags strret" to get on the parkings. On your left you see parking lots and SFgam. But on the right side, you see empty parking lots, ALWAYS! Well on that side there will be water park. If you need proof. when you go on this website. http://www.sfgamworld.com on the left will say Construcion 2005. Click it and see!!! THANKS

I think that they should have commercials on TV in english on english TV stations. Espanol on Mexican el Televisia, and in Polski on polskich TV stacji. what do you think? it would bring more people. Trust me. I asked many of my polish friends and they didn't know about it because they only watch the polish TV station.

thanks
T.K.
