Golfie Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I had never used Atlantis theming before, so I wanted to try it out. This entire park was based around the tilt coaster called "Neptune's Fury" which interacts with the tropical foliage in this Floridian park. I "went" to the park yesterday (opening day) to see what there was to offer! p.s. I've heard rumors about some new things being built... I'm going to check in in a few more days to get some night shots of the park. The park is AMAZING at night - I'll have to get more photos of night next time. Brake run... waiting for the other train to be loaded. Heading into the double corkscrew, overbank, and past the first drop. Coming out of the MCBR into the helix of death! Then the train is thrown through a heart loop - the most intense part of the ride. The second hill - the train goes over rather slow, but it offers a LOT of floating time. Are we going to fit in that tiny hole? This is where one hopes the breaks DON'T fail. Going up the lift The queue is very well made - I think it zig-zags, but you can't tell because everything is walled in. The entrance to the ride, along with giant stave. Here's where riders are tilted 90 degrees in the mercy of their restraints... Tilt coaster! Between the main entrance and Neptune's Fury's Plaza, there's a restaurant offering steak, burgers, and sandwiches. Then we headed for the main attraction - Neptune's Fury! We went in to get our season passes. Here's the view into the park. We got there early, but the park had a pre-opening show. It was okay.
Golfie Posted March 31, 2007 Author Posted March 31, 2007 ^Right now, there is: Neptune's Fury (Tilt Coaster) Riptide (Flat Spinner) Conch Slide (Spiral Slide) Water Spout (Space Shot) I'm going to keep adding flat rides, beacuse I want it to stay a small park.
Ccron10 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Great park so far, it has a nice use of scenery. Where did you get those railings that are around the park entrance?
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 The Railings are from Shyguy's circus set. SO many additions have been made to the park now: New restrooms Dolphin Show called "Aquos" has been added River Rapids Ride "Lost temple of Atlantis" (Or something like that... can't remember) Robo-Arm Ride "Octopus" Plus, I have a POV of Neptune's Fury and a video of two panoramas of the park - one at night and one during the day!
kennywood!007 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Cool park, looks like the coaster would be rough though....
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 ^Every coaster on RCT3 looks like it would be rough In real life, it wouldn't be
thrillrideseeker Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Great job! I cant wait for the next photo TR! ~Matthew
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Thanks! If anyone would like to do a photo TR, please send me a PM!
coastercrazed49 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Nice job, I like the coaster. Cant wait to see the next photo trip.
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Photo TR #2! April 1, 2007 Something's going on with Neptune's Fury - more about that in the TR. WOW! The park has done some work in the past few weeks! So many new features and attractions have been added. Enjoy! We grabbed a bite to eat at the restaurant and headed home. I really hope Neptune's Fury isn't down for too long - it's a great ride. Water Spout - 20 stories up, 3 launches! Giant gladiator statue in the middle of Neptune's Fury's Intense heart loop Riptide - a REALLY fun flat ride. Be sure not to miss it! The two beasts of the park. Here are those night shots I promised you guys! Oh no! I heard that the ride is getting some repairs on the tilt section. The also built a bathroom at the north end of the main way. All day, the show was sold-out with a line always behind the stadium. Aquos! Then we headed down the main way to ETA's brand new Dolphin Show... Brand new robo-arm ride right outside the main plaza. The ride ends by emersing riders in a VERY dense jungle. At night, the whole thing is illuminated with a giant torch in the middle of the ride. Oh... crap. Ooh! We're in the lost temple! If you don't want to get wet, do not go on this ride. Trust me. The first BRAND NEW ATTRACTION of the day: Lost Temple of Atlantis The park is getting more dense every time!
Steffen_Dk Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Can we see some more pics of the wild river?? From what I've seen now, it looks great
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 ^Actually, I've shown the majority of it. It's a very short ride (Drop, waterfall, lift, temple, hill, waterfall, end), and most of it is enclosed. UPDATE: A friend of mine sent me a picture of Neptune's Fury - it seems like they're totally replacing the tilt area! I'll keep an eye out to get some shots of the delivery of the new track.
thrillrideseeker Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 OMFG! I wish I was that good a making parks. I love the rapid ride! I can not wait to see more trip reports! ~Matthew
Golfie Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 UPDATE: Neptune's Fury is back up and testing - I'll post some photos I got of the whole super-fast repair soon!
Golfie Posted April 4, 2007 Author Posted April 4, 2007 Here's the whole sha-bang of the replacement process - enjoy! By the way, I've heard Neptune's Fury is back up and running (when I left, it was testing). ...and yeah! The coaster is back up and testing! The construction walls were taken down by sunset. Ooh... The tilt section was in the air around nooninsh. Shipping containers with BIG holes in the top! They've got a crane, shipping containers, everything!
coastercrazed49 Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Looks good I like the rapids ride good scenery. Keep up the good work!
texashorns82492 Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Haha I like the cranes. Where did you get them?
thrillrideseeker Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Great Job! I like the cranes and shipping boxes! Keep up the good work! ~Matthew
