Coaster Addict 715 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 ^^ Huh, I forgot about Knotts removing theirs... It wasn't moved to another park either. Okay I'm obviously barking up the wrong tree, carry on. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Engineering Coasters 205 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Splashdown = Major Key What else splashes? WWC and RFYLCB It doesn't add much to the conversation, but it is still consistent with previous hints. If I recall one of DJ Khaled's quotes though: "The key is to make it." Edit: Think of what else Khaled says... (Another one) 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FoF96" 1900 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I can think of 4 Cedar Fair parks that operate Top Spins. If one really wanted to get on one the closest would probably be KD. Not to mention it seems like almost every Six Flags park has one also. They aren't that hard to find. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cdeq 402 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I don't think "major key" is a hint. I think its them shaping and directing towards the youth. It could just be pointing that Diamonback is major key part of the skyline or ride line up of Kings Island. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bm0324 1787 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I'm not sure why I thought more of them had been removed... Brain fart Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pkiknex25 367 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I personally think Don's "Major Key" snapchat wasn't referencing DB's lift hill. I think its referencing the splashdown... I'm still not convinced KI is getting a coaster, I think it's more likely KI will get a flat. As I stated earlier, keep a close eye on Dorney Parks removed Screamin Swing. (Sorry for the double post. Internet is acting up.)Knott's removed their Screamin Swing last year, CF may just be removing them, kinda like they've done with most of their HUSS Top Spins. When rides start becoming problematic they tend to just close all of them to prevent future issues..Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk If all the Screamin Swings disappear I will be really sad. That's one of my absolute favorite rides. I wouldn't look too much into this trend yet. Both of the Screamin Swings that CF has removed have been the small 8-person capacity model. I would bet that the big 40-person models at Valleyfair and The Point are safe. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FoF96" 1900 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 And looking into it there are actually 5 haha. Crypt- KD, Riptide- KBF and VF, Thunderbolt- WOF, and Firefall-CGA 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TombRaiderFTW 10000 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Honestly have any Top Spins been removed from any CF park besides KI for obvious reasons? And looking into it there are actually 5 haha. Crypt- KD, Riptide- KBF and VF, Thunderbolt- WOF, and Firefall-CGA Worlds of Fun and Knotts removed theirs this season. The parks that still have HUSS Top Spins (or one of the variants) are California's Great America, Kings Dominion, and Valleyfair. Canada's Wonderland has a similar ride, but it's from Mondial, not HUSS. The one at Worlds of Fun was awful--I think the seats are sized for children under the age of 10--but the rest are Suspended Top Spins that I dearly hope stay around. I've only ridden The Crypt at Kings Dominion, but it's legitimately a fun ride for me. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fryoj 4182 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 These are the same people who posted all kinds of pictures of Racer when touting their 2016 announcement. I wouldn't put too much stock in any of the hints. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CoasterDude48 94 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I think the picture of the "major key" that showed the splashdown could hint a dive coaster. Griffon at BGW has a splashdown and has a 200ft+ drop like DB as seen in the picture Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdawg1998 6533 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I think - no, actually, I know - the "major key" Snapchat is simply an attempt from KI to appeal to the younger generation, referencing DJ Khaled's Snapchat stories. Seriously. That's all it is. http://www.techinsider.io/dj-khaleds-snapchat-key-emoji-2016-1 Move along now. Edit: I realize this has already been said. Oh well, I'll say it again. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
