Sportsdude360 Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Pics from day 2 of the Aquaman Pass Holder Preview! I did pics of the water filtration system to show that this Mack Power Splash is more technically advanced than the previous Hopkins Shoot The Chutes ride. From the Oil Derrick The water filtration system should prevent water from getting dirty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotologist492 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Sportsdude360 - just curious: Is there a splash zone for bystanders, similar to the old Aquaman ride? At any rate, this does look amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At any rate, this does look amazing. Yes! There are two areas that get splashed. One is to the left of the front entrance right near the fence. The other is across from Justice League's exit near the entrance to Pandemonium. Be forewarned.....the splashes coming off this new Mack Power Splash ride are much more forceful than the old Hopkins ride! Children can easily be knocked off their feet, even adults can be sent packing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tndank Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 New body seatbelt has been added to Superman now. Anyone been on it since? Seems pointless. What's the story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 ^ a child died on a drop tower. so the additional seat belt makes people feel safer riding it. that's the story. no change at all to ride experience (Scream at SFFT has the seat belt too now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tndank Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Just seems strange to add them a year later. Was it running during that year? Doesn't matter to me just seemed strange and over the top. I'm curious WHY it's there now. Where the decision came from. Maybe Texas inspectors? The ride manufacturer of the Orlando ride didn't add these to their drop tower. So, just a little curious why they were added a year later here. Good chance no one here knows why and that's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 ^ it's back in the news, as the tower in Orlando was just brought down. I'd suspect that's why suddenly they did it . . probably easier to avoid bad PR than do nothing and wait for a Karen to complain how it's unsafe.

Sometimes manufacturer recommendations change, and therefore Six Flags added it (almost) park wide. I'm pretty sure all of the S&S drop towers have them now chain wide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story? Obviously, the seatbelts are an added safety feature. I rode Superman TOP last weekend and I can tell you the seatbelts didn't change the ride experience one bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say this looks like an amazing event. I tried to figure out a cheap way to get down there. Meals, walk backs, ERT sessions and 2 days of flash pass for $60? That's crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
