HUSSRAINBOW · Post by **HUSSRAINBOW** » Thu Sep 18, 2008 7:30 am

Well today it's here, back again for 2008... Yeah I am very surprised as to the layout... cannot wait to see SPACE ROLLER, NO LIMIT, POWER SURGE, HARD ROCK and ALI BABA all narrowly miss each other... hahaha. I just wish the carnival included Zipper and Rainbow... that would have made my 2008 Show.

Will be heading down this afternoon...
So as promised, here are the photos, taken for the very first time at night, security was very nice, the guy was more than happy for us to go and look around....

MORE PHOTOS from DAY 01 tonight!!!!

also be sure to check OZRIDES in the coming days for videos!

Is anyone going to buy the $10000 showbag?

That junk is there every year..... would rather spend $1000 on something worth it, and that's something Not at the show... hahaha

We got them yesterday morning, Mark has done a fantastic job. They look just like the old ones will look good when they are all put together.

Cheers OZhowkid

Lol, Mark, I bet you were pleased to hear you are so good. But of course you would have known that lol

Yeh, I don't think he needs people to tell him. Lol. It will be good to see the signs finally back on the ride

Hurricane · Post by **Hurricane** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 3:22 pm

Lol, I should hire him to paint one of my walls downstairs like a Carnival Ride... I'd love to find out who did Bell's Music Trip artwork... or Space Roller's... They can come paint my room

HUSSRAINBOW · Post by **HUSSRAINBOW** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 4:15 pm

Indusol, a european company did SPACE ROLLER, if you look on the right hand side of the ride, the logo is actually on the backwall.... Id love if they had a good clear shot of it, while it was being done for the Faller Salto Mortale... haha maybe Russell can help me out

Space Roller Freak · Post by **Space Roller Freak** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 4:43 pm

Hey huss, or anyone else do you know how much each ride costs because I wan't to know how much money I have to bring and not go a ATM and get more out so I don't over spend. Hope someone can help!

CHEERS,
Space Roller Freak

Top Gunner14 · Post by **Top Gunner14** » Sun Sep 21, 2008 6:48 am

Depends on how any rides you want to go on. Power Surge costs $8, Ali Baba $7, No Limit $15, Speed $15, then I'd say everything else is around $7-$10.

Top Gunner14 · Post by **Top Gunner14** » Sun Sep 21, 2008 12:58 pm

Huss, did you get down there yesterday? Or anyone else

Space Roller Freak · Post by **Space Roller Freak** » Sun Sep 21, 2008 1:21 pm
