Blizzard Beach Construction

[Absimilliard]

I hope their dealings with Proslide turn out better than Volcano Bay did.

The 2019 announcement that was later covered was for fiberglass flume replacement on Summit Plummet. Proslide originally supplied all the fiberglass slides for Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach.

The exception is Crush n' Gusher, which was the last big project of NBGS; Its an acronym for New Braunsfel General Store, Schlitterbahn ex design and manufacturing design division that was closed down around 2007 and their designs licensed to WhiteWater West. Hence, every Master Blaster water coasters since are WhiteWater designs.

Regarding Ray Rush at Aquatica, the original announcement promised a clear acrylic Aquasphere element, yet a blue fiberglass element was installed. Its a WhiteWater project, which SeaWorld and Six Flags tend to alternate with Proslide at their parks. Cedar Fair is all WhiteWater and are removing even newer Proslide installations at their parks.

Do we think it’ll be themed to a movie IP?

Well, Frozen would fit in pretty well...

Not really. Freak snowstorm <> Elsa.

Of course, they could just keep movie IP out of every nook and cranny of the property and just further the existing theme of BB, but what do I know.

I wasn't saying I think it's a good fit.

But to Disney? It's almost a perfect fit. It certainly works better than Frozen in Norway, and they didn't have any problem doing that.

The Olaf in summer thing from the first movie would’ve been such an easy tie-in and the fact that it didn’t happen back in 2014ish is a miracle.

Didn’t they do some sort of summer “party” at BB along those lines?

That’s true I suppose it did happen in a small way.

Lots of activity here today, possibly parking lot resurfacing? There’s about 20 dump trucks lined up out front and lots of heavy duty machinery.

Didn't Elsa create a freak snowstorm?

There is a bunch of gravel needed to setup the laydown yard, might be for that.

That makes sense, definitely a big operation

So they’re replacing team boat springs?

Good…but they could have done that months ago and this sure seems like they “conveniently” are not gonna staff it this year, no?

Some 26 year-old newly hired Imagineer that got an MFA from the Iowa Writers Workshop is reconfiguring the extensive backstory of BB as we speak.

There could be more then one project going on here. The crane shown in that picture is where I have marked in red. The permit that I posted is for a tower crane located where I marked in blue.

Have any sense on what it is beyond that? Looks like team boat replacement to me but it could be multiple things as you say
