As a graphic designer I LOVE this :love hopefully we will see a full version of the image soon, as it appears The Smiler's marmaliser/track has been cut/cropped out in this image
The branding as a whole for Wickerman has been 10/10, Towers always seem to hit the nail on the head in regards to brand identity

I love this too. as soon as I saw this, I made it both of my backgrounds on my iPad. Beautiful.
What I want to know with that picture is why is Rita there for? Rita isn’t an SW.. would of still tied into the whole SW marketing thing they were doing a while back..

I imagine this is just a generic picture advertising the 7 main coasters at the park, not a poster to showcase the Secret Weapons but just showing the resort with the 7 thrill coasters

Huh.. kind of makes the whole SW thing a bit pointless now doesn’t it :lol
Shame, the art concept is really good though, just nit picking a bit

Got to remember that it's an image aimed at the general public. We know that Rita wasn't a Secret Weapon but the vast majority probably don't. They're all just coasters to most visitors.

We can’t say for certain whether it will open or not, but Wodan, which is a GCI coaster at Europa Park, can operate at 0 degrees. That doesn’t mean Wicker Man will operate within the same parameters, but it could give us an indication as to whether it’ll open.
The weather is looking absolutely abysmal for tomorrow, worse than when the original services day was cancelled. Do people think the park will be open? We have to leave soon for the hotel tonight.

Either way.. i’ll be going just in case.. honestly with how the weather is in this country, I doubt we’ll get whatever they say. Plus it is only morning with light snow, so I can see Alton being able to cope with this.. but hey, at least we’ll be able to see the park in the snow again :lol
If Wickerman can't open this weekend is it more likely that the opening will be pushed back a whole week (so it will be on a Saturday) or just until the weather improves enough to open (likely Monday based on the forecast)?
