Yes but I believe Bondi Beach would create a bottle neck like the one between the pink slides and old wavepool. I think the majority of Thunder Road's space in he empty in 2016.

Is this new? [EDIT] Yes, it was created 6/24/15.

Not sure if it's new, but a quick search for "rain fortress" shows one of these, looks like a pretty big splash to me.

^Thats a bigger verison of Jackeroo Landing(aka Splash Factory, aka The bucket thingy.) I believe this permit and the one I found are for upgrades to existing structures but I am only 51% sure of that belief.

Give me that and some drop box slides and I'll be happy. That certainly would be a much needed upgrade from the pathetic splash zone we currently have.

I would rather they just gut it and put in the larger rain fortress..

The Hershey park and Mount Olympus models are "giant rain fortresses" a regular rain fortress is slightly smaller.

It's suprising that cedar fair might go with White Water West since all of their recent waterpark additions have been Proslide.

Whitewater West did Boomerang Bay at PGA in 2004 I think. Carowinds has zero attractions from Whitewater West. Our water playstructure is from a different company than ProSlide but all major slides are ProSlide but Kangeroo Lagoon and Jackeroo Landing aren't.

I thought that all the new drop box slides that Cedar Fair has been putting in were from White Water.

^You're right. I totally forgot about those.

For those who weren't at media day, Carowinds just posted the footage.

Around 14:00 is where the "Big Splash" and "Roll Forward" hints were dropped.

If you think that looks neat...you should have saw it when it was at carowinds several years ago!

Wonder when we are gonna start seeing whats gonna happen on the SC side of things...

^IAre you referring to Racing Rivers at Riptide Reef? It used the pink's slide tower.
