The Wave (formerly known as Shockwave)

[Elise]

That definitely looks like a big problem. Pest control will be needed for sure Last thing you want is to be stung in that queueline...

So we had a visit today and it appears that the wasp problem has gotten worse. The ride ops as soon as they realised the extent of the issue shut the wave down for the rest of the day. I’d imagine park will have to get pest control in to fumigate the queue line but here are a few photos from todays visit.

Hopefully they can get this resolved by Friday as that's when I visit and I would like to "ride the wave".

Quick fix - when you get the pest control team out to do it.
They are probably really busy recently with the recent hot weather (Then again - the rain may have helped now)

Hasn't ran in 2 days sadly

Oh dear
I'm guessing that's not due to wasps but a more maintenance based issue

I was on it yesterday.

And as we were leaving you could hear the train cranking up the hill.

No sign of any wasps.

What time yesterday? When I was there I didn’t see it open at all. Although I did leave at 4:00 so that might’ve been why.

Closed today.

Closed today.

While your at park, try get a pic of Harold’s Helicopter Tours, apparently stuff has changed on the ride?

One of my daughter's favourites. I'll take a look when I can.

Looks the same to me. A bit cleaner maybe?

About noon I'm guessing.

Like I say we heard it cranking up the hill when we left which was a bit before you did, but I don't know if they was a test run.

That would make sense because I was in the zoo at that time so I wouldn’t have seen it. Thanks for letting me know

It wasn't open Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday sadly

It was open today and saw it go round the track many times.

 

[Immelmanloop]

Very late opening today, then had to stop almost immediately due to the rapids needing to close. Not too sure why that causes the wave to stop but got to see them run teh pumps up so thats pretty cool

If one closes for a problem, the other one has to I believe I think it's to do with how they overlap

The wave had a breakdown on the lift hill again

But 15 mins later as we pulled off the park they got it moving again

Today’s operations were massively improved as the map bars could come down in one move rather than the usual half way first routine.

I wonder what’s changed!
