After wanting to join for a while I'm finally in the club!
What would be the best mods to get for this pin? I hear the boulder protectors are good and I will add a color DMD.
Others?

I've bought the rafts as they do look very cool - also those side decals look pretty awesome.
On another note, when I lock the first ball the message sometimes says "ball 3 locked" instead of "ball 1 locked"
Is this common?
Quoted from kidchrisso:Did you check planetary pinball?
Yes I did and no, they don't have it

Okay, so I have finished with the work on my White Water.
This is what I've added
3D Translite (not sure how I feel about the look of it)
Missing Mountain Mod (not sure I like this either, it's held on with velcro)
Ice Blue LED's in top half and whirlpool, other leds elsewhere
New disaster drop ramp and upper to lower ramp
Replacement boulder set
All 4 Cliffy protectors (on the way)
Couple of rafts and Spine Chiller decals
Blue superbands, replacement of rubbers etc
I'd be interested in thoughts on the 3D translite and missing mountain

Quoted from Allibaster:Like white water rafting in winter, huh? It's kind of a summer vacation activity. I really never understood the desire to do this, but to each his own.

As far as mods, I'd recommend the bigfoot light mod that illuminates bigfoot when he's active. I also like the missing mountain mod. If you do LEDs, the PinballBulbs GI kit really does a good job lighting it up! The bear mod and rafts mods are okay. ColorDMD looks great on this game.
How does your missing mountain attach to the game? I have tried one with velcro that didn't hold unfortunately

I'm having an issue with my machine in that when I lock the 3rd ball for White Water Multiball, 1 of the balls always come out of the front of the VUK back down No Way Out instead of being launched to the top flipper.
Anyone seen this before and have advice for me?
Okay, pinball is level.
Looking at it more closely, the force of the VUK is knocking the other balls that are leaning against the one being popped back into the playfield.
Should the balls in the VUK be leaning against each other?
Quoted from TheLaw:If I'm understanding you correctly there are none OEM....this is why the targets and the ramps get broken behind them frequently. The Mantis protectors are available here

Aha! That's what I'm looking for

Quoted from MiamiRedSkin:Anyone have an extra right sling plastic collecting dust?
I actually do! I'm in Australia though happy to send it over
Quoted from paynemic:Are there any better solutions? What if you only replaced every other one with led?
The best solution is putting 12V leds in the topper, not the 6V ones as it will burn out the board there & they are too bright. I find the 12V ones still give the soft waterfall effect without it being overbearing
Quoted from Whitewater:I have installed the Great Lakes Modular board upgrade. Now I can run 6v 555 LEDs in my topper. No heat at all. I experimented with many different leds and I have found that the single 5050 leds are the absolute best. My waterfall effect looks even better than with old school bulbs.
$100 is a bit much just so you can change 12V for 6V led's in the topper - the 12V ones are fine, just not as bright which isn't the end of the world IMO
