Wave Swinger

The electrics have started to be installed and the building is all finished.

I wonder if the pipes are for fence supports.

I lot happened in 12 days. The queue line currently been installed with the queue entrance on the left side, also the ride exit path as the entrance the station platform on the right. The control panels look ready to be installed and loving the lights currently been installed which I think means it may be available for the Christmas ride line up.

Unless they have so many contractors on site for the next 10 days I can’t see it been all ready for the start of the summer holidays on the 22nd July.
But can see the rapids soft opened for staff training soon (loading and unloading training)

Yep I'd say 4-5wks potentially

Thats great to see

 

[Ben R]

Certainly looks good, and fits nicely with the Adventure cove theme too. A nice addition to the park

 

[Ben R]

So the park has announced the first wave of what will be opening soon of adventure cove still no date though

All aboard! Are you a lover of all things chicken? Well head on down to the rejuvenated Chicken Diner, where you can fill up on the Cove’s infamous fried chicken. It’s a taste sensation!

I love all the efforts and updates from the park and looping group. Some rides and areas look great of course! However am I the only person who thinks certain theming or aspects look a little dated or tacky. I.E the wave swinger theme looks “seaside” almost dated too me. As well as the chicken diner sign. I’m not a fan of flat signage either for theme parks. However I’m a huge fan of shockwaves and river rapids building refurbishments styles and efforts!

Think they do that cause it’s cheaper, Easy to clean and easy to replace

I still find it weird that the theme is "seaside" with a massive chicken diner in the middle of it. I've never gone to the seaside and said "I really would love fried chicken!". Fish and chips on the others hand is a different story. Although I do like the chicken diner logo

The park has now added the page for the wave swinger with height restrictions and other information

 

[Wilko]

Brilliant, my daughter can come on with me!

 

[Wilko]

Waveswinger is open today, has it been open before?

 

[Ben R]

i think it was open yesterday too

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

Love the theming and the shells. Spoke to a manager and all that’s left to do is the sound and lighting.

Got to go on it late in the day, a good family addition, but I personally found Monkey Swinger to be better (went Friday).

Also, they maybe should have thought about splitting the queue for those who need to ride with a child. On my go there were lots of single seats left but the 4 groups at the front all needed doubles. Maybe not a massive problem, but it did cause a lot of people having to move past etc to fill the single seats.

Theming is brilliant though, once everything’s finished it’s going to be a great area though, with something for everyone.
