Ski Stadium

I was at GL today and they were doing some work at the ski stadium. They were taking down that blue building on the right side of the stage. I don't think they are taking it out because they ski ramps were still out and it looked like they were putting stuff in. Is there a good chance that GL might bring back a ski show?

I read something in the employee newsletter, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say, seeing as that was the first I'd heard of it.

The Ski show was my absolute favorite part of Sea World. I love skiing, and watching ski stunt shows.

Maybe I am the only one, but I know I would make an extra trip (or more) every year to GL if they had a live ski show again.

I used to watch that thing 2-3 times in a row.

High Speed Poweboats.. amazing "stunts", hot girls, and a cheesy drama plot. Who could ask for more? ;) lol


Well, whaddya know. There is a Candy Mountain.

Could the ski stadium work be for the Halloween Haunt this year?


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,

I think Mr. Spehn said something at Coaster EXT's Q&A about having a show there in the future. They want to evaluate the amount of traffic on that side(Wildwater Kingdom) of the park before they made any decisions. If anybody else was there, you might remember more of what he said. I can't totally remember, I have a short attention span.

I'm sure with Phase II coming next year, that will be a new addition for the plans for 2006. Maybe they'll bring back some sea life back again to bring back more sales. People were dissapointed that the sea world not be there anymore. It would have to be put in where Hurricane Hanna is.

It's been said many times by many people. The animals will not be coming back.

But hopefully a ski show will.

I hate seeing the stadium sit there empty while the midway outside of it is filled with guests.

Bring back Baywatch! ;)

Years ago Sea World had a water-themed laser/light show that utilized very cool water screens for movie effects. Something like that would tie in nicely and I for one always enjoyed that show.

That laser/light show knocked my socks off back in '98 or '99. It was awesome!

I remember that laser/light/water show. Simply amazing stuff. I hope Spehn decides to bring it back. I'm sure the equipment is still in the lake and stadium where its always been, although they might need to get new parts if Six Flags never made use of it.

Three things you need to fix anything in the universe: duct tape, WD-40, and a hammer. Duct tape if it moves and it shouldn't, WD-40 if it doesn't move and should, and the hammer as the last resort.

Is that the same equipment they used for the Batman Show when it was Six Flags owned?

I believe the Ski Show will be back because it is in the rendering.
