That doesn't sell me that this is anything out of the ordinary. Again, i'm sure there will be unique components, but I just don't see how this is anything more than a water park themed to the hilt.
I don't care how next generation this park is, if parking is problematic, locals will stay away. And it will need locals for at least its first half decade to stay afloat.
Also a few years back, a few of us took a survey regarding transportation to and from the water park. Not sure if any of you remember but one of the options were trams with seats lined with plastic. So they might be plannign to have trams going back and forth vs buses.
Hell, Aquatica and Adventure Island have a Magic Band-esque type system for their water parks as an upcharge. They actively promote leaving your wallet in your locker.I'll be all for spending money in the water park but they better have some kind of way to pay with some magic band type system then I get charged at the end of the day. I will put my stuff in a locker and not want to go get it while wet to pay for food or drinks.

So if Sea World can do it than Universal definitely can and hopefully a lot better.

Ah, true. :thumbs:I'm going out on a limb and would guess he meant to say "I" instead of "U"
Well technically I was only ever a permanent TM at one park (Adventure Island Tampa), but when I worked at Disney, I worked at Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon fairly regularly, even though it wasn't my home park.^ So at least now, we all know that you have a penchant for working at water parks! The go-to guy for water park ops.
I'm only expecting the Volcano to erupt with water and the wave pool to start, almost play-by-play how it's done at Typhoon Lagoon. If anything is done differently, then it's already a positive most likely.Volcano eruptions cause earthquakes sometimes right? What if the wave pool has crazy waves because of an "Eruption/Earthquake" effect they'll put underground ?
