Hawaiian Coasters 325

I don't think we should retheme FOF. I think it's fine the way it is imo. I could see them adding some new decor in the queue line to tie into the new coaster though.

I'm guessing you should watch this interview with Rob Decker. He clearly explains the difference between B&M hypers and gigas.

I'm guessing an RMC and/or a Mack double launch. If KI gets an RMC, I want it to be a ground up topper track woodie that takes back the tallest and fastest wooden coaster records. A Mack double launch I want to see larger than Copperhead Strike and I want to see it use the terrain kinda like how Helix does.

That may be true, but it still interests me on why they kept the old queue. Maybe they'll use it as an "extra queue" for opening year because they'll probably need it especially for opening weekend if there is nice weather and the crowds are huge. And then they'll build a queue at the bottom of the stairs you would go down to the station for Firehawk. Just my thoughts.

New giga concept! Photo credit goes to @sixohdieselrage The name is The Visionary

^^Also Diamondback in 2009

@Cedar Fair Fanboy that teaser thing was brought in by someone to troll the enthusiasts. Anyways, just came up with what the lift hill could look like from the tower! Credit for the pic goes to Ohio Valley Coasters!

Yes @sixohdieselrage !!! I want to see what the clearing actually is!!

^^It'll be interesting to see this weekend if anymore clearing was done since the weather down here where I live (about 5 minutes from the park) has been gorgeous these past few days. Also @Maverick44 are you going to create anymore giga concepts?

It'll be interesting to see this weekend if any new clearing was done this past week. I live just 5 minutes from KI and the weather was gorgeous several days this week.

I honestly think that it would be a little too crowded and congested to put the coaster station in Coney Mall imo because of the cars being there and having to squeeze right by the cars and under Racer. Imo it would make more sense to put the station in the Firehawk area and have the coaster go through the cleared area. Plus I saw a video on YT where someone took pics from WindSeeker (which I'm not all for filming on rides due to park rules, safety, etc) and the clearing is actually larger and not as narrow as what we can see from the ET. Just my thoughts here. Plus, I don't think they want to leave that fence up right there for too long.

It seems like news stations are now following KIC when they want to talk about Kings Island especially John Matarese and WCPO!

How about calling the coaster Aviator?

I'm here with another giga concept.

If our giga is gray track like in the photos, what color would y'all like the supports to be?

I just want to point out that the gray track that we saw at the B&M plant looks painted to me. Non painted metal is usually rusty dark looking. This one is a light gray. Plus it's sitting outside where the finished track usually sits and it's labeled. If it is in fact track for our coaster, I would definitely look for a science like theme. Just my thoughts here.

I would love that as well, but with the Notice of Commencement, I don't believe an RMC, but I do think an RMC could come eventually and maybe take the records of the tallest and fastest wooden coaster back!

Made my first concept after the land clearing was spotted! The world's tallest, fastest, and longest wing coaster. The name is Sky Force!

Talking about the fake teaser post. It baffles me that the person thought it was okay to sneak into the restricted area and tape a fake teaser poster onto Mystic Timbers. I believe it's trespassing and vandalism. I'm sure the park will take it down.

If I remember correctly, teasers for Copperhead Strike and Yukon Striker didn't pop up till mid season. This kind of goes along with what Chad said in a news interview like a week ago where he talked about how we should focus on 2019 right now. I say they are doing exactly that with not putting up teasers now so that it doesn't over shadow the new additions for 2019 and if I were to make a guess, they will start dropping teasers once summer starts.

I'm not saying that everyone will be disappointed, but I will say that several probably will be with the hype around Firehawk's departure as well as those no limits 2020 giga concepts that circulated the web.

I wonder how big the disappointment will be if there is no teasers on Friday/Saturday. Tbh I'm not getting my hopes up since I was kinda expecting construction and stuff in 2018 for a 19 opening because of the rumors for a giga in 2019 and that didn't happen. I don't want to get my hopes up like that again.

I think that track is for Hershey Park

^^And he also gets blasted on this one Facebook group.

The funniest one I've heard was over the summer when someone said "Move Banshee to Valleyfair and put an RMC SOB where the original SOB occupied." I just would laugh when I saw it!
