Australian Amusement Fanatics

Wow now you are making me think???? That was like 11 years ago and Pinks had it, I cant quite remember but it done Ballarat show up until 6ish years ago, I havent been on it since that day!!
I went off going on rides for years, being on the grounds for quite a few years you never really worried about going on them, ive not long started going back on rides, Well my son makes me

I think I will take sea sick tablets before I go to Sydney next year.

Lol, take a berocca and you'll be right

Any one know where force 10 is

A new Zamperla Rockin Tug has just landed in New Zealand, its been a couple of years since a new ride appeared here. Should be a good family ride, I will post some pics when I get to see it.

Aaron's Force 10 is currently on the road in Victoria doing shows. Saw it operating at Swan Hill & Sheparton just recently. It is currently on the market and will be listed on the Website in the next few days.

^do you know any other shows Force 10 is doing in Vic?

I hope it goes to the Warrnambool Show.. may be going there this year.

Any idea if it will appear at Dandenong on the weekend of the 12-13th Nov? I am keen to see it operating.

Yeah? good point Dave. maybe even at the Lilydale? I hope I get to track it down for another ride one of these days. It's been tooo long.

Thanks Aussie.

Hey i'm currently at albury show and the flash dance"reverchon explorer" is here i was watching the test run today and it flys. Looks fantastic to just like breakdance.
Cheers OZ

I have just heard about the consortium that has bought the new Ferris Wheel, that has been discussed, I have also heard that Melbourne Show has asked for expressions of interest for their ferris wheel position, maybe the skymaster will no longer be in Melbourne.

If that means a new larger wheel to be set up.....then goodbye Skymaster, I won't be dissapointed not to see it....something more attractive and bigger, will be much more exciting

Howdy, could anyone tell me who brought the latest Tug Boat into Australia.

Cheers

the rockin tig was bought by Better Amusements from Sydney

Does anybody know something more about it?

OMGGGGGGGG How exciting! there were rumors of this!

Darewing this is huge news.

Watkins are bringing this to oz it will be here in about 2-3 weeks in was put on the boat when Albury show was on it will be at Phillip Island christmas carnival along with: tilt a whirl, dodgem cars, kamikaze, cha cha there is more but i can't think of them.

Phillip Island never looked so exciting.

I think I'll have to plan a fishing / surfing trip, and throw in a ride or two while I'm there.

I can't wait for this!

that is perfect, im going down to stay at my mates place! WOOHOOOO

Don't forget to bring your pukebag and remember that the outer seat is the place to be (and don't forget to lace your shoes) I'm always K.O. for a few hours after riding something like this.
