I dont think it should be refurbished. Knock it down, or leave it. Its had too many facelifts and they are all half assed. It will just look messy, besides the ride is naff.

I thin it needs a retheme more than anything else, but refurbishment will do.

I dont think a refurb is needed, it needs demolishing, possibly the whole building.

I think the layout of the ride's okay actually. Yeah, its nothing special, but its interesting enough. The thing that I would change/add to, is some sort of effects to keep you interested as you trundle round in there. That'd liven it up a bit.

Ive voted no to it being refurbished as like Matt said it just needs demolishing and a whole new ride place on the site.

Tidal Wave is now sponsered by Original Source.
I dont think Tidal Wave even needs sponcering, but oh well.

It looks like it'll just be an air type sponsor it isn't proven yet anyway. How come that pic only shows a tiny bit of the map?

I feel the sponser would be a really low key affair. On the q line t.v.s,map,photocards and might get a sponser on the boat I but highly doubt it.
It can't be as big IP leather sponser, could cause some conflict otherwise.
Then again if the sponser help funded the replacment of the effects let it happen I can choose to ignore it.
