MATTERHORN...... is it back in its former glory with the canopy... cos someone posted a photo of it with all the top panelling/sign off...

glad its back, Wittingslow gave that ride the best years

Great lineup for Adelaide, good to hear Insanity's back on again. Dunno why but I can't see Short's Matterhorn back on, can someone clarify it's not just Chant's Rock N Roll as that isn't listed?

Well, it's now been a decade since the Spin Dragon crashed down!

Is the Spin Dragon scrapped by any chance?

No its still around. its here in Victoria. Chacha in the back ground looks good. The royals should still have a Cha cha on them. Its still a good fun family ride.

Is it in operation also? Does anyone have any news footage of the collapse?

Sounds like a good line up for adelaide. Has anyone tried Haunted Hotel in 3D yet?

same rubbish, all the visuals on the outside, like walking into an empty dark warehouse in the inside.

i remember that year at rye, was soo annoyed they put spin dragon on instead of rainbow...
apparently wittingslow still have it .... somewhere at their yard

Yeh we put the 3D glasses on that they use on the Haunted Hotel while I was working the Surge at Sydney, they work a bit but nothing thats really spectacular. Spose you can't do much else though.

I would like to see some pics of the rides being unpacked.

The packed Claw ride was between 2 buildings.

Looking forward to going to this years show IF I have the chance...
How much do tickets cost?

haha i cant believe CLAW still gets booked on a major show....

Does anyone know where this was taken? I'm a Happy Tree Friends fan and I've managed to win Giggles last year at a sideshow game!

Good picture of the claw racked up, unfortuately ive only seen it operate twice broken the rest. Maybe it should go in rides racked up

Tell pee wee thanks

Just curious, that third photo with the slogan "Australia's Fastest Ride" wouldnt that happen to be the same as the Rage (Prime Position next to Show West's Ranger)
owned by L&L Osbourne only ride that they keep storage in Perth??

Mind you thanks for the set up photos, fingers crossed they might bring over Sky Flyer as promised on the Perth Royal Show Lineup for last year but never showed lol..

pretty sure thats the thunderbolt, rage is all enclosed in the back of a truck except the main drive.

definetly thunder bolt as the 4th pic is the same trailer but with a bolt sign on the side

Thanks for the unpacking pics, Zamperla!
Many of these rides travel down the South Eastern Freeway, as well as other highways.
More pics please!

I'd be willing to bet Thunderbolt moves at a faster RPM rate than Rage.

Cheers for the photos. I thought someone said that Bob Lawrence's Wave Swinger was permanent?

Interesting to see the Bolt racked up, love that ride. Love the prime mover they have for it too. Good to see it still gets on a capital, IMO I still think it's a much better ride than the Rock N Roll.
