Cedar Point Announces New Water Ride for 2010 Season

On windows as well, just press Ctrl+Alt+Print Screen. This will copy the image, and you can put is in Paint or Word or something in order to save the image to your computer.

I can't wait to ride this thing. Pass center opens Wednesday, going to get mine processed on Friday! Can't wait! :)

Pumps on the island pool are up and running!

^ This coming Wednesday?

right now!

you can see the water flowing out of the top of 2 of the blue pipes at the moment on the web cam.

3 pumps up and running

I was talking about the Season Pass center. It's opening this coming Wednesday? Just wondering because I have yet to buy mine. I always wait until late April to buy it.

^Yes. It opens this Wednesday.

Who's up for a swim? ;) Can't wait to see the land reservoir filled.

Has anyone heard anything about lighting effects? I've seen them working on the lights on the entrance and exit paths but didn't know about any other lights.

Yes, during the day the tunnel is light and at night it is dark .... in that it has no roof!

filling of the main pool has begun!

You don't need to press Alt.

Ctrl + PrtSc will suffice.

Wouldn't it be easy to just simply press the key on the keyboard that has "print screen" on it? ;)

You don't need to press anything aside from Print Screen, actually. Print Screen by itself captures an image of the entire desktop; Alt + Print Screen captures an image of the active window. Ctrl + Print Screen does nothing, so far as I know.

All of this vast knowledge of your operating systems is terribly interesting, not. Meanwhile, the main pool is yet again being filled on a Sunday no less...as well as painting of the SRF.

Perhaps we will see the rocks flow with water for the first time today. I'm guessing at the very least they will fire up the main flow pumps that drive the flume.

BTW, I did see evidence of slope in the flume (althought I'm guessing it is very slight) as after yesterdays partial fill of the main pool and the water was allowed to equalize overnight , the curve just after the tunnel had standing water in it while the upper end of the pool was for the most part dry.

I had a question. In the webcam they show a building right before the climb on the second hill. What is that going to be used for?

it is the filtration and electrical building for the island pool.

That's too easy. ;)

I beg to differ......;)

I was under the impression that this forum was about STR not how to use windows...

The water in the splash pools looks kind of dirty. I'm sure it will be filtered though.

Also, I don't think they plan to make this ride a haunt. I think they plan to keep it open during Halloweekends hence dialing down those effects for the time of the season.
