AstroDan Report post Posted June 12, 2011 Looks like GREAT fun, which is what these rides should be. Nice to get our own version of TSMM here in Europe!Can't wait to ride this in the summer. About time the park had a decent dark ride. Some of their others are mind-numbingly boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Report post Posted June 12, 2011 I didn't know the ride type was available elsewhere. Just thought TSMM was like Tower of Terror, completely made by Disney (Obviously not, but you know what I mean, no others in the world apart from in Disney parks).

AstroDan Report post Posted June 12, 2011 Until now! I presume TSMM was an external ride system for Disney, then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benin Report post Posted March 27, 2013 Phantasialand's new Flume ride is taking shape... I don't even know where to begin... Looks more confusing than Smiler does... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loggers Creek Report post Posted March 27, 2013 Already looks very impressive. Perhaps merlin should take note (in terms of decent lg flumes). 1 ste193 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will Report post Posted March 27, 2013 It already looks better than The Flume in my opinion. 1 ste193 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EC! Report post Posted November 22, 2013 I like the look of the new Chiapas ride but in this video the boat almost goes underwater and the boat is totally fills with water, the first 2 people will come off looking like they just jumped into a swimming pool, that isn't a good thing is it?

EC! Report post Posted March 30, 2014 that last drop, what the hell! also fastest lift hill on a log flume I've ever seen! I agree! I feel Intamin should focus on log flumes more haha 1 OldFarmerDean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark9 Report post Posted March 30, 2014 I agree! I feel Intamin should focus on log flumes more haha Considering this thing is a year late, if they decided log flumes was the thing to build, they might want to plan them better in future. 1 Benin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EC! Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Considering this thing is a year late, if they decided log flumes was the thing to build, they might want to plan them better in future. Yes but then at least it is open and anyway I thought it was due to construction problems, not Intamin as the manufacturer that led to it being open that late.

Benin Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Nope, boat and drop design were part of the issues (namely weight of the boats causing either no splash or complete flooding)... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loggers Creek Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Looks an amazing log flume ride. That theming is just amazing, with the rock work details, skeleton cave and other elements and wow, that final drop at the end is just crazy. Would love to see a log ride like this in the uk. Been a long time since we've had a new one (I'm not counting Oakwood's as that was Camrlots) and the exhorting ones are rather meh these days. 1 EC! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whiteknuckle Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Very impressive looking ride/themeing. I went to the park the year Black Mamba opened (2006?) and it made even Alton Towers look like a travelling fair, so much detail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EC! Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Indeed, so detailed, right down to only employing black people in the Africa area I laughed when I heard this, so when in the Mexican area, do they only employ Hispanic people (Don't take what I said seriously please!)
