So it seems Black Buccaneer, Seastorm and Tiger Rock still haven’t completed winter maintenance which is disappointing considering Chessington has been open for the 2019 season for a bit now. Has anyone got any updates on these. I’m going on Weds but looks unlikely they’ll be open soon from what I’...

Sorry to double post, but it was approved on Christmas Eve.

It's a shame the bar has been cut, but still has the potential to be a lovely development. Just to confirm, the bar hasn't been 'cut'. It'll be part of a secondary expansion application once the initial set of Lodges is built. Essentially, Chessington ran into huge problems with the original applic...

The field at the corner of the Vampire and Dragon's Fury has been earmarked for development for a fair while, and I could see it nicely housing a wooden coaster, given how they've implemented Wicker Man. It's to my understanding that they can't build on that green area next to Dragons Fury as it is...

As posted on SouthParks Facebook; The rockwork formation surrounding Tiger Rock’s main drop is almost complete. 

Just to confirm, it's not 'Almost' complete. Land of the Tiger is complete bar snagging which is on going by the contractors.

It's a concept that was drawn up by John Burton. It's not an official concept and one that was put together before he went on to work for Merlin Entertainments.

I doubt it'll re-open. Dragon Falls had a lot of work done to add in new evacuation platforms and steps that are most likely too costly on Loggers and Flume. So I believe it's a H&S thing.

Oh, I know that. The transit system is fab and works great, it's the VR that's the issue.

It was fun, but it's still very glitchy. 5/10.

From the ride team on the coaster when I rode it recently in Austria.

Yup.

Who excited for Olympia Looping this year then? [emoji4]

Rode the one in Billund on Thursday. Great attraction. So much fun, the shooting is tricky but the ride experience will be great for Windsor. Not sure how it'll do capacity wise though.

The bars on Black Buccaneer are in the down position.

Chessington Buzz have gone and posted the new Tomb Blaster logo over on their Facebook Page.

Toadies / Peeking Heights / Mystic East is more than likely where the next 'big addition / coaster' will go once the park have finished fixing everything up. At the moment, the parks 'Putting the Theme back into Theme Parks' programme is what they are focusing on and when the park re-opens for this ...

It'll also be far bigger. There's actually 5 different courses.

I can't name names on a forum to protect those involved, but let's just say I have no reason not to trust what I've been told. Why else would the park be putting a new path in...

Hex is an issue, not as big as the fact that the Monorail won't open this year...

I have to say, when we walked around Tomb Blaster to take those photos and talked to the people behind the changes, the amount of passion and excitement was oozing from them. I cannot wait for this season to begin to we can get on there and experience it all under show lighting.
