Legend 2002

Is anyone upset by the fact that Legend is now intertwined with that huge (and very fun) purple waterslide? I personally am not. I think it ads a great new effect to the ride, it kind of looks like HW always planned to have something to duck under right there. It's a big thrilling element to the ride. Some might argue that it takes away some of the solitude out-in-the-woods aspect of Legend, but I think there's still plenty of that left, and personally I like this way better. I think that if Legend had existed for 20 years unabstructed and THEN Zoombabwe was built, we'd be very touchy about it just like with Beast. Btw, I also like Legend much better with PTC trains.

Long live Holiday World!!

I thought that Zoombabwe really added a ton to the ride. I can't imagine riding it without Zoombabwe. It really hides some of the drops and adds a nice headchopper effect.

I thought it was pretty dang cool how it intertwined and I think it only added to the ride. Nice headchoppers, and you can't see what's coming next. Before I went I didn't know how close it was to the water park.

I found it to be just ANOTHER perfect move by HW (as if I should expect anything else). It (ZOOMbabwe) was a perfect addition, rounding out the waterpark and helping to tie the waterpark and the ride park together.....

the headchoppers, awesome as they are) are just icing on the cake.....another thread references "the perfect park", and while I can honestly state there is no such thing, I can't imagine anyplace coming closer than HW....the switch to PTC trainSS (x 2) tells you they knew to expect the attendance jump....small surprise to those of us who've been there, and fallen in love with the place....

Paula, NEVER let the Kochs sell out......we'd BUY it before letting it "fall into the wrong hands".....

I've never ridden, does anyone have the layout or an overhead veiw of the ride?
I'm going to HW tomorrow. I looking forward to the addition of Zoombabwe. It's going to rock.
