I can feel the air conditioning from this video!

I believe this is due to the influx of transfers from ECVs and Wheelchairs…In the earlier discussions of the possibility of speeding logs through, it was mentioned that such buildup was something happening *if* things go wrong. But in the last number of the trips to the resort I've taken, such a buildup has happened on every water ride I've been on, seemingly waiting for 50-100% of the ride's length in a line of boats, including stopping at the start of the Small World finale. I didn't remember it ever being like that before.
Is it a new(-ish) normal, something I just didn't remember as a child, or I just have bad luck?
No, for all you know the fence was underneath - but I'm familiar with how the Briars were constructed, and there was no fence under them because there was no under them. The Briars were a mass of individual tubes twisting out from the concrete floor below the waterline. You could see through them. A fence would be visible through them if it were hidden amongst the Briars, which it wasn't.
Here's a clip where you can see right through the Briars from multiple angles - no fence visible anywhere through:
Here's a gif of a TBA construction shot laid over a shot of the Briar Patch - look through, no fence:

Here are 2 TBA construction photos from February last year after they started removing the Briars - there's some scaffolding, but no fence:

It's fine not to know about this, but there's no need to discount the fact that other people do. I'm not being smug, I'm just telling you the truth. You're the one saying that since you don't know it must simply be unknowable.
Maybe they’re being tested for leaks BEFORE going into their final paint jobs??Wouldn't it be easier and make more sense to do it while they out of the flume and dry?
From on operations standpoint, ideally you have at least enough logs/boats to ensure that there is always another one ready to enter load assuming a perfect dispatch every single time.In the earlier discussions of the possibility of speeding logs through, it was mentioned that such buildup was something happening *if* things go wrong.

Time of where Log 1 is | Where is log 3 into the ride? | How many logs have left unload ideally |
0 | 0 mins | 3 |
1 min | 40 seconds | 6 |
2 mins | 1 min, 40 seconds | 9 |
Break | ||
12 mins and 40 seconds | 12 minutes (Ready to enter load | 42 |
That is probably the only area in the ride where I think projections could work well. That and the big lift hill. Would be a good way to do special effects and magical ambiance stuffmaybe in the laughing place? except that's where it was rumored to be screen heavy
No. The inside is dry. There's a bucket brigade transporting water to the slide!!I may have missed this - but if water is running does that mean the interior is mostly finished? I would think they would need construction walkways set up in the flume until they were close to done.
She better be careful… all those co-op workers may go on strike if she treats them like that!!!No. The inside is dry. There's a bucket brigade transporting water to the slide!!
Based on the progress, TBA should see previews for the attraction by mid April - early May? I would think
Almost certainly, at least work near the flume itself. The water is running through the entire ride with the exception of the lift hills and drops.I may have missed this - but if water is running does that mean the interior is mostly finished?
