Trav, that stupid verruckt ride at schlitterbaum park has been a concern for many of us since it first went in. We knew it was just a matter of time before someone got seriously injured or killed and it finally happened. I never would have rode that thing even if it was free. They knew those straps were not working as designed and Now it's just a matter of time before the lawsuit is filed. (Stepping off soap box now)

Great idea and nice PP touch on this Jim!! Guess what, right about now your in first place ;-). Paul

T - Thanks for the comment on the swing. I stumbled across this while wandering the area. I understand your thoughts on the water slide - but this one is quite controlled and much slower - it is inside.

I like the simplicity of this...clean lines, contrasting colors. (regarding your first image, I can't look at anything like this without thing of the lad that recently lost his head on such a waterslide...my own oddness...but it troubles me) Travellerr
