 Welcome to our coverage of Day Two of IAAPA 2016. If you missed our Day One Coverage Click Here!! Today we're exploring more of the show floor as well as some pretty exciting announcements from Dynamic Attractions, WhiteWater West and more!! Coverage by Renée Girard and Morgan Adkins  Cyborbots by Galaxy Multi Rides offers people a chance to sit and control their robot.
On this inflatable Adrenalator, you run up a 27 degree treadmill and slide back down. Super fun!
Interactive curling? Who knew! From the people at Xtra Ice.
 Pro Slides have some amazing slides for water parks all over the world!   A bit more info on the new Zipper open view seats from Chance Rides.  You can go for a spin on the VR car on the Zamperla Windstarz.   Technifex offers some amazing technology and effects, such as the FauxFire on display here.
Talon Simulations has immersive VR experiences. The race car simulator is shown here but others offered includes coasters and jets  We're both a little weary of certain VR systems, but this one uses oculus rift, which we find better for those prone to motion sickness. 
Nine D offers some more unique looking ways to experience VR.
 Some awesome props and photo ops made by Little Spider Creations.  Another interesting VR type ride from Exo.   Want some wheels? Millennium Ride Wheels has got you covered!  We love what Rocky Mountain Construction does! Here's some of what they have on display.
Celebrating the 25th anniversary of SimEx Iwerks.  Splash & Bubbles the TV series follows the undersea adventures of Splash and Bubbles and is launching Nov 20 on PBS Kids, 7 days a week.
Herschend Entertainment is developing Splash & Bubbles 4D for several locations, one of the first being the Newport Aquarium.  SimEx Iwerks has a number of different attractions, including Rudolph 4D  Ah, a Park Journey favorite, the tram!  More Legolands popping up in the future. Here's the proposed site for LegoLand New York.  Always love a good GCI coaster. Check out these trains from Busch Gardens Williamsburg 
A look at some of the models on display from the fine folks at Gerstlauer.
  You can find all sorts of random animatronics on the floor at IAAPA. I think this is a furry raptor?  Inflatable rock climbing on SkyClimb is harder than it looks! But a fun challenge from Inflatable Depot.  Awaiting the media event from Dynamic Attractions. Really looking forward to what they have in store! Dynamic Attractions won best booth @IAAPAHQ this year, and the Orlando company has doubled in size since last year.
Dynamic Attractions developed and contributed to 11 attractions over the past year.  Dynamic Attractions introduced their new motion theater, that rotates and moves to reveal various scenes.     Unveiling the model of the motion theater.  Congratulations to the Dynamic Attractions team for another incredible year!
We rode the Cloud Coaster at IAAPA last year. Looks like they have more to see this year as well.   This ride 360 by SBF Visa Group seems to be quite popular but that's a big no thank you for me!
On the other hand, Wave Rider looks more like something I could handle.
Some more info on Five Nights at Freddy's the Ride by @SallyCorp . Hopefully coming to a park one day soon!  Another thing I wish I could add to my home.  Venturing outdoors to the land of inflatables.
 Ok this was a lot of fun! Super tall and steep inflatable slide that sends you airborne.  Fun little drop tower from Moser's Rides. 
Trying out the VR preview of @SkylineAttrax Skywarp. Really fun ride! Looking forward to riding the real thing one day.  Attending the #IAAPA2016 Legends panel, with a discussion of Shanghai Disneyland.   We played zombie tag a few weeks ago, and it's cool to see that it's here too! Would love to see this used in more locations.  Halloween might be over but I wouldn't mind if it was all year round!  Finishing up our day trying out a few arcade games.
Every game you could imagine is pretty much at IAAPA2016 . I especially liked Ghostbusters!
 We are at the media event for @WhiteWaterWest
 Geoff from @WhiteWaterWest discusses the success and plans for the future of their business.
We won't be able to make it to IAAPA2016 for the rest of the week so this concludes our coverage. Thanks for following along!   Even though we won't physically be at IAAPA2016 the rest of the week, we continue to get lots of great info that we'll be sharing.
