SharkTums Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I'm pretty sure that all of the other Splash Battle attractions offer free water devices to the spectators. Does anyone know differently? I thought that was kind of the point so you can consider it a 'free attraction for spectators and riders' type thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Heretic Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I think the Splash Battle at Indiana Beach needs a quarter to use the spectator water cannons. I seem to remember Divv and I desperately fumbling for quarters when we spotted someone on it who deserved to spend the rest of the evening soggy.

Airtime&Gravity Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Wow, this ride keeps looking better and better. I wasn't expecting much after looking at the concept art, but this should be a popular ride with families. While I miss Deja vu, it is nice that my home park is adding a non-coaster ride that I can ride since I can't stand the spin-and-puke kind. It will look strange in County Fair, but this looks like it will be one of the best themed rides in the park. I doubt that having to pay to use the water cannons on shore will have much of an impact. The cannons by the rapids ride always seem to have someone using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DejaVu The Ride Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I'm not sure if it is confirmed or not that the on-shore "cannons" will be free or not. The "cannons" at Dollywood were free and the ones at Great America appear to be the same type. Since the "cannons" are hand cranked, I'm not sure if the park would go through the hassle to change them up too much. I guess we shall see.

kumba830 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Wells for Raging Rapids they have water canons. As I last recall it was something like 50c, which I'm sure they will do the same for this ride. Who's all going to Media day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DejaVu The Ride Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 ^^The cannons at Roaring Rapids and Buccaneer Battle aren't the same though. The ones at BB are more like "super soakers" that you crank with your hand and aim at your target. So we'll see how this plays out...haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumba830 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 ^ Gosh six flags is cheap! Although I do give them some credit for the really nice themeing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I gotta give props to Six Flags - this looks like a really well-themed attraction. But for some reason I thought this was going to be over by Spaceship America. I think it looks alot better in its actual spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
