Is this real???

I don’t think we would receive a B&M wing because GateKeeper is 3 hours away. Plus if KI wanted to do a launch, Thunderbird is just over 2 hours away as well so I don’t see that as a likely option. I don’t think capacity would be a huge issue if we got 3 trains like Time Traveler. Time Traveler has an hourly capacity of 1,100 riders with 3 trains on the track. If we got a ride similar to RTH then it would be a problem with only 550 riders per hour. If we got a Dive I’d really like to see a narrow track dive coaster. Or at least one without a mid course break run. It really hurts the pacing.

I looked at the webcams last night and I couldn’t see anybody on the pathways because of the fog. The first time in years that has happened. The fog takes a while to get going but around 8pm it starts to cover the entire pathways It’s so awesome.

I think either one would be exactly what we need. Time Traveler and Ride To Happiness have a 51 inch height requirement. 51 Inches would be the lowest on an inverting coaster in the park. If we weren’t getting SSBR then I think the next coaster would have to have a 48 inch height requirement but with that addition I don’t think it matters as much. Thank you for sharing! I would like a B&M surf themed to King Cobra as well somewhere down the line just not as the next coaster with 3 out of the last 4 additions coming from B&M. I think the free spin on RTH is too much for the GP and I have heard that it never has a line that it’s too extreme for them. I think the control spin makes it just right. I have ridden Time Traveler and I don’t do spinning rides well but the controlled spin is not at all nauseating.
-
Don’t get me wrong I would really like an Intamin as well but I didn’t add it to the list because everything on here is likely but with the current relationship between CF and Intamin I don’t see one as a likely option sadly.
-
I 100% agree. We need something that no one In the area has and is very marketable. A Mack extreme spinner would be perfect. Throw in some launches that we desperately need and some crazy transitions and ejector airtime and we would have a huge winner in our hands. I didn’t add a B&M wing because Thunderbird and GateKeeper are both 3 hours away and I just don’t see us adding a wing.

Quick Haunt question. What does everyone think the best day to visit Haunt is?
-
Thank you for the information! I will definitely ride Lightning Rod first thing a few times. Do you think I should cross park and head to Big Bear and Dragonflier next or head up the right side?
-
Thanks! Let the excitement begin! I really hope that the park can get everything done for opening day next year. My hopes aren’t extremely high but higher than at the start of Adventure Port last October.

Looking at the webcams it seems a construction wall has officially gone up. @Hawaiian Coasters 325 Can you confirm?
-
Thanks. I am hoping to get 3-4 rides first thing in the morning. I want to get a good amount so if I don’t ride it again I’ll be happy that I got to do the launch a few more times before it’s gone. I’ll probably take advantage of the single rider line. Quick question / questions. I haven’t been able to have the cinnamon bread yet so I was hoping to get that as well. Do you think they will sell out early or could I wait until later in the day? Follow up question, what’s the best time to get cinnamon bread?
-
Thanks! I am planning a trip there for my last rides on the launch but I also haven’t been on Big Bear so I’m trying to figure out if I go to LR first or Big Bear. I’m leaning towards LROD because it’s so un reliable that it may be down the entire day after the first 10 minutes of the day.
-
Sounds like an awesome time! Quick question, did Lightning Rod have a long line when you rode it? I’ve heard the line can get quite long early in the morning.

New Possible Attraction in Area 72 With Orion
Orion742 replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Rumors
I think a Screamin Swing would be a fantastic addition to Action Zone. The whole area needs a retheme and a Screamin Swing with a new coaster in AZ would be fantastic.
