Oh how I wish our Super Loop was still travelling. I wonder whether it'll be in Canberra for the Show like it usually is? I would love to see that loop tower over the carnival midways once again. I used to love riding it! ahhh. and I just noticed 3 of my favorites rides all there in your pics kiwi....

Does anyone have pics or updates on that Zipper which should by now be in Aus. I forget who bought it over but I'd like to know some more about it. What shows will it travel?

Did anyone else catch the footage of the Rye carnival on TEN news recently? It showed the old carnival from some years ago with Pirate, Enterprise, Zipper and the Rainbow all there. It looked amazing. Man it's a pity it's nothing like it used to be (except for Pirate still going strong).

hmmm. thanks for the update again Huss. Interesting to see Scorpion, but I would have preferred to see Enterprise. The line up is good, but it's nothing too special compared to previous years.

If Rye is holding a festival for farm yard equipment then let me be the first to say I want to be a farmer.

I agree with you about Force 10^ It's such a good ride. I miss a lot of the old classics, but I am still keeping an open mind about the new rides like Sky Walker. I wonder if vic will even see the new KMG Tango? I think it would do well at Moomba perhaps even the St Kilda Fest. That reminds me the l...

Wild Mouse is back at Rye! Now that is a nice surprise. Thanks for this update Huss. Keep posting pix if you can. I haven't been on the Wild Mouse for years. Rye is my favorite beach carnival. I sure am crossing my fingers and toes for the Enterprise.

Thanks TopGunner14, I may be thinking of some other ride. Tornado does look fun for a family especially with the seating arrangement. I'd personally love to see a Chance Wipeout. I rode the UFO a couple weeks ago (a Chance Trabant, almost identical) and it was a great family ride with a heap of air ...

I'm positive I have seen a Wisdom Tornado at the RMS quite a few years ago, mid to late 90s? Someone could verify this one, I could be wrong though.

I wonder if No limit will make an appearance again? Last year I had the most intense ride on No Limit, it was really pulling some serious Gs.. Let's hope some surprise rides turn up this year.

^ there is so much happening this weekend Hurricane. Ballarat is on as well as Dandenong , and of course Melton. There are just too many decisions.

Anyone have details on the line ups for Ballarat or Dandy? Both shows are good little regional shows, it''s just a pity they are held concurrently.

Thanks for posting^


Do you know which Zipper this one is? I'm just curious, although I don't care too much since it's the Zipper we are talking about.

What are the other rides as well? Hope you can shed some more light.


Thanks again,

Super Loops.

I tried to like it but I couldn't.

RMS 07 was just way below average for a capital show.

I've decided the regional shows are better value. That's all I have to say.

No Benclare, the Chos Pendle is not a Chance Chaos. It's manufactured by 'Funtime' which I think?? manufacture rides like the Vomatron etc. Here is a link with some info and pics. It looks interesting. http://www.funtime.com.au/data/index5.htm I wonder if we get a 3 arm version or the 2 arm? There s...
