Goodbye Blade…

I understand what you are saying, however the new Ripsaw is double sided with riders facing both directions of the gondola so the platform is the perfect opportunity to have both sides have a view and be viewed by spectators.

If you placed it sideways in the Blade location and trimmed some of the foliage back, it would be viewable from both pathways either side.

On the contrary, having the path underneath will mean the pedestrians will look up and see the gondola above and make direct eye contact with those on-ride…

I mean, you could say that about any flat ride regardless of whether it's built on concrete stilts. You're still further away from what's going on than you would be if it's built down in the ground.

Some of the discussion here seems to have strayed a little away from Blade and more towards Project Ocean. So just a little reminder that we have a separate thread for that.

Thanks!

Question is…

What are we betting there’s already a god awful game on the site?

If not being prepped for a replacement, a big piece of theming wouldn’t go a miss.

The cynic in me imagines it fenced off with a broken shipping container in place of Blade as 'theming' - maybe a little smoke machine inside of it if they really want to push the boat out.
