Is Ripsaw Falls expected to be running by May?

[RC Fan]

Hello!

We expect to be at IOA on May 8th and are hoping that Dudley will be up and running!

Any update on when the ride is expected to be out of rehab would be great!

Thanks for your help!

They would most definatly be done by May (I would think). I know it is very warm by May & all the water rides should be up and running

Bump!

It's expected to be up in April.

Thanks phamton!

I was hoping you would come along.

I really love that ride!

From what I've been reading, it has been expected to come back lots of times since mid-December and yet, it doesn't appear any progress has been made. I wouldn't bet on it being open until more details come out.

Well, wherever you have been reading has been wrong. When it closed in September, it was not expected to be back up until April. Nothing has changed.

Wow. A lot of places that usually have pretty good info were kept in the dark on that one. Thanks.

The employees were told.

Any idea of when in April? We'll be there the first week and would love to ride it.

Thanks

No exact date yet-- just April. Things can change but as it gets closer we may be more able to answer this.

Wow, what's being done to the ride?? That's a long time for an attraction to be down isn't it??

Hope it will be up and running soon, we love that ride! We will be there the end of April, but I am surprisd that it will be closed during the spring recess season.

The track to the ride is completely gone so they're definitely working on that. Here's a picture of that..

I hope the drop isn't tamer. It's a GREAT drop. This is my favorite ride in all of Islands because of it. Has anyone been on it at night? It's a lot scarier!

Islands feels like its missing something without it, especially to me.. I felt like I was having the worst luck at Universal a few months ago with this and Jaws (my favorite at Universal) closed at the same time.
