Australian Amusement Fanatics

I was lucky enough to get a ride on its maiden ride in Australia when it was setup in Melbourne for regos. What a ride very good looking and ride is good i was on it for about 20 minutes. And for those of you interested space roller and sky walker are in no way the same.

Cheers OZshowkid

Is Sky Walker better than Space Roller. Who owns this unit? I would love to see some pics of the ride. I wish Sky Walker would come to the 2008 Shepparton Show (Victoria) as Space Roller makes quite a bit out of it.

you cant tell me you see similar motions / actions between these and designs

What I mean is they don't give the same ride and i didn't mention powersurge cause i have not rode it.

cheers OZshowkid

Thanx 4 that Oz. Cant wait 2 ride it nxt yr. It looks like a very fun ride from wat i can see on the videos i hav of other units

in relation to the sky walker its owned by march's amusements i still have no idea how to insert photos in to this web site so have a look at www.marchsamusements.com
it has a photo of the sky walker on it other wise just ask around a bit more for more ride pics.

This ride looks fantastic, the led lighting was just beautiful, with strobies, it does not look comfortable to ride at all, music was very loud, but I like that.

Got to ride Sky Walker yesterday at the Show..... can't say I was too impressed, I liked that it was as high as the Rainbow, but other than that, it was uncomfortable, and disorientating.... Space Roller and Power Surge are much more exciting.

chris.

I was expecting a bit better than that. And the seats do look very uncomfortable

Geez! Sounds like a huge dissapointment about Sky Walker. How is Space Roller after the Incident at Moomba?

Crazy Coaster

worse im afraid, no signs still, and when on the ride, one sign was behind the ride, and looked as if they are being reglobed... hope it gets fixed up. Gave a fun fast ride!

So it was giving a better ride. A massive blow with the space roller. And syd is the biggest show. It does look heaps different without the signs. If i was Russel, id really be pissed off. Hope they are fixed soon.

I feel sorry for Russel!

Crazy Coaster

There are brand new signs on the way from Mondial Russell rang up and ordered them straight after the accident. We have added lasers to it aswel looks fantastic of a night time. Glad you liked the ride Huss as I was driving it, you didn't come say g'day though.

Cheers OZshowkid

Thanks ozshowkid! I bet it looks Spectacular at night time with the lasers! With the new signs, what are they like? Are they like the origional ones, like James Mellors Space Roller or different altogether? Can't wait to see Space Roller back doin Victorian Shows in September-November!

Crazy Coaster

Great to here, ill be there tonight to see them. Will come say hi Oz. And good that there are new signs on the way

omg oz was that you!!!! ill be back up next week, so ill definetly come say hi!!!!

theres two people on the ride, one girl with blonde hair, and a guy with kinda long hair.... they both said hello to me, cos they remembered me from Springvale! haha! awesome crew

people on Rainbow were really rude to people

Will also be back next week Oz so will catch you then. Believe me, the lack of signage isn't keeping people away from Space Roller; the queues for it are enormous all the time!

As for Sky Walker, it'd probably be a much better ride if the safety restraints weren't so uncomfortable. I reckon KMG will receive quite a few complaints about this.

Ozshowkid, do ya know when these signs are gonna turn up from Mondial?

Crazy Coaster

oz, do you want a cd? I can seriously have one done for you by next week.....
AUDIO or MP3??

Let me know, and Ill make some for ya, so you guys have the best and newest music at the show.



chris.

I want one too, please

I reckon the music on Space Roller isn't too bad; the sound affects are really good actually!

Would love a CD too Huss; PM me your address and I'll mail you a blank disk.

Oh Huss, could ya PLEASE do one for me two, please! Could ya please PM me!
