      I hope so, their water park is always packed. I think once they start with season passes, I think it will be a lot busier. And they didn't open til almost the end of June.

      @@filmstarterproductions I expect when the landscaping grows in it will look pretty different. It’s kind of an EPCOT World Showcase layout, with a loop around a body of water. It’s surprisingly well thought out, even with bypass paths that skip some of the lands. Very weird to find such a nicely designed brand new park from folks who have never made a theme park before.

    I love seeing a "new" park that has totally unique rides & theming, and not just huge thrill seeking rides like boring gigantic steel coasters targeting millennials.
    Although I live more than 1000 miles away, I have a relative 2 hours away. If I make it out to the area, definitely will plan on visiting this park. I hope the park is a huge success, and that other parks will be inspired to offer original rides that are appealing to a wide range of people, not just the big thrill seekers.

    This is such a cool and unique theme park. I hope it is here to stay! I do hope they can add some trees though. It looks a little bare without some trees or themed decor. I know they had a little bit of decor, but with the flat land they built it on adding some tall things to break that could do some good.

    I'm really glad you went here. I was very curious about the park. The theming is absolutely stunning throughout the park. I hope it's a big success. Nopuko is a stock Vekoma suspended looping coaster, often called a "hang and bang" because of how rough they usually are. But this one has a different restraint system that looks much more comfortable.

And Then again I always make sure to Incorporate a Few Flips into the ride. Because I sometimes transition from an Angle hold on my glider into a Flip.

      @@taylor9645 The delays on Yuta Falls and Matugani lead them to hold back on full marketing blitz until the next season. In general they treated this year as sort of an extended soft opening to get a feel for operations, which is why they saved Season Passes and Group Events for next year too.
      Also, lack of staffing was a factor in the early closure since even with September just being weekends, you obviously have a lot of people going back to school.
