i wonder whos zipper is going? if anyones

[Missionelement]

[Missionelement]

CLIF HANGER, ALI BABA, CRAZY COASTER, DODGEM CARS, SKY FLYER, also rocked up about 1hr ago

[Tayz]

How much idoes the xxxl ride cost because last time i saw it was at the melbourne show 2009 when it was $15 and i might be going on friday because of no school!

[Space Roller Freak]

XXXL is $12 per ride or 2 for $20.00. I rode it two times at the Shepparton Show and I must say its deffinatly extreme and packs a punch nearly as hard as No Limit! Is the DDS Zipper there? Also please Missionelement we all would love to know what this surprise ride is im thinking of going myself

[dell2006]

mixer. and i dont know what Missionelement is smoking. there wont be, or has not been a zipper there this year.

[Tayz]

Really, the mixer is there. Is that a good ride or not. And i am almost defiantly going friday but wont be able to take pictures but i can give u a review if u want

[Zamperla]

what, no Zipper? hmmm was going to drop by but am re-considering now. MissionElement maybe saw Zacchini's Zipper which is sometimes stored on the grounds.

Tayz give Mixer a try and share your review on here after you ride it - reading about it here in detail will make it less of a surprise!

[Tayz]

very true zamperla
The whether is men to be sh** all weekend Raining almost everyday but instill might go friday coz it is not ment to be to major. Maybe a shower here and there but thats all.

[Matt Diabolism]

I doubt we will see a Zipper at m/any Vic shows this year.Unless I'm mistaken,it was mostly Deans that did the Vic run and he is obviously focusing on his wheel.Does Zacchini's Zipper travel Vic?...Shorts' only seems to do Mildura.

[Top Gunner14]

Yeh I haven't heard of Davis' Zipper doing alot this year, think it missed alot of the Nth run aswell. Wouldn't suprise me if his using the truck which haul's the Zipper instead on the 2nd lighter trailer on the wheel which carries the gondalas, platforms' etc. He did buy a new truck to pull the centre trailer of the wheel so maybe his using for the 2nd trailer the truck from the Zipper?

Zacchini's Zipper is in Tassie at the moment

[Space Roller Freak]

Would love to see some set up photos if you could missionelement

[Tayz]

so the website is wrong, there is no zipper this year?

[dell2006]

There is a new zipper working vicotria. Jd's Amusements run it.

[Tayz]

well i am off to the show very soon. It was pelting down rain earlier but now it has stopped so that is very good that its not raining during show hours I will be able to do a review and i can upload phone quolity pics(1.3 mp)is it worth uploadng them?

[Space Roller Freak]

Its deffinatly worth photos Tayz even phone quality I would love to see them as I cant make it to the show. Also lookin forward to your review and have a great day at the show Tayz!

[Tayz]

Well i didn`t end up going today because of TERRIBLE weather. No joke it was raining non sttop from about 6am to about 4pm and after 4 it was raining on,off,on,off untill night. But dont worry i am going saturday night because it is ment to be raining saturday but not saturday night, So u can still expect pics and a review.

[Zamperla]

Did you get to the show today Tayz? Am keen to read someone's trip report as to what is there.

[Tayz]

Yes i went saturday night and it was freakin awesome haha, Because i live in geelong i saw heaps of friends, which was good to catch up with them coz i hadnt seen a couple of them in agers I took some pics but they are really crap accect for a few so do u want me to post them? Also i took a vid of the xxxl and te mixer (in one vid) do u want me to upload that? It only shows them for like 50 seconds in there mid cycle so dont expect any fancy vid. Review coming soon, and umm well i thought the show was really good and had a good line up which i will list later coz i screwed atm from the weekend:)
