    That’s not a good way to look at things… it’s a rollercoaster with a 300 ft drop let’s not act like it’s garbage. The Beast maybe your favorite ride in the park but you can’t ignore the fact rides like Diamondback & Orion will be the GP’s go to. It’s not a bad ride but let’s not act like Orion is garbage.

    You're not wrong. Here's the deal. I'm just ****ed that Cedar Fair let me find out by a push notification that my favorite roller coaster manufacturers most beautiful ride at my favorite park is being demolished. I hate to be that guy but Cedar Point wouldn't be dealing with this, they get to keep corkscrew. And if they took corkscrew down they would probably get some world record smashing coaster. My heart is just heavy ladies and gents. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to get over the fact that I have such limited time to go see my coaster.

    I’m with you, I live in Wisconsin now and there’s no way I can make it back to ride this gem one last time. I’ve never marathoned a ride like Vortex, the inversions were all so perfect to me every time. I guess I’ll have to get my last ride via YouTube

    ^^I can and I will. See Galactica (formerly Air) at Alton Towers.

    After watching the video of Galactica it brought a thought to my mind. So we all were thrown off by the use of Firehawk and Invertigo for the first teasers. What if, and that’s a BIG IF... they found a way to use the galactica style trains that load as an invert and then lay down. And turn Invertigo into a flying boomerang and BOOM immediately expand its life another 5+ years.

    Yes it’s the same blue, to dark for pictures today, I can get them tomorrow 

    Litrerally every time this dude is asked for pics there is some excuse. Not to be that guy but over the last 30 pages since he appeared and claimed he could get pics he has yet to deliver. Stop feeding the trolls please

    I don't get comments like this at all. This is a Fan site for KI, but we don't work for KI. Keeping stuff like this a secret is KIs problem, besides its out there already. Can't put toothpaste back in the tube.

    I’m assuming this comment is reflecting back on the international street thread where the mods were overly involved and basically banned all photos. It was super controversial, and scared a lot of people for what this thread would become. Personally I’m happy they’re much more silent than they were in that thread or half of this would have been redacted

    Take a look at this coaster layout. ONLY 2120 ft long. And look at that boring path. How could anyone build that?

    Oh, it also is 400 ft tall and goes 120 mph. So theres that. 

    If this is what I think it is I mentioned the thought of a TTD type of a coaster, but what if they used the momentum of the drop for a few more elements instead of just returning to the station like the other models.

    Back in my day, we enjoyed what the park gave us as they gave us it and speculated from there. I'm curious to see how the early emergence of public details on this one will affect future plans. It kinda feels like we're exploiting a special privilege here? Maybe that's just me?

    Some of you are giving me some vibes that you'll actually boo aloud at the announcement if this isn't exactly what you want. Please don't.

    "Decoding" threads are always my least favorite threads here. Always. I'm outie on this one. Later, taters.

    I get your point, an improvement is an improvement so we should be happy. But if our giga that we’ve waited well over 10 years for doesn’t even rival the first giga built which was 20 years ago. and not to mention are in the same freaking state yeah and owned by the same company, yeah I’d say there is just cause to bit** and moan

    Seeing it inside of that plot really makes it feel like it would be insanely short. Like the shortest giga ever built.

    No idea what to think to be honest.

    It was said like 40 pages ago that they would do clearing in stages. All I can think is this was an intentional leak and a distraction. We can expect to see footers in about 2 weeks and more clearing in about a month

    So Valravyn is 47° lift so it could be pushed to 50° I would think

    My hope is it’s a launch lift hill and going up around around 55-58 degrees

  12. Every time we are decoding it seems there are some sort of plans we look back on and either laugh at or say darn we had no idea what was actually in store. It seems like today is that crossroad

  13. There’s just no way that’s real. Millennium force is better than whatever that fake blueprint is. There’s no way we get a coaster that doesn’t even compare to one that was built nearly 20 years ago
