Sad to see Vortex’s removal has already begun, still doesn’t feel real that it’s getting removed.

When I first saw the triangle logo during its announcement I definitely thought it was somewhat reminiscent of Vortex’s logo. I think the triangle logo looks much much better then the rectangle logo.

The software update could have been on something other then the cameras them selfs, maybe it was a website software upgrade for the camera page, who knows.

It makes zero sense that the park would intentionally take down the cameras so they could make a time lapse for views. Also, how does them releasing a timelapse make it worse from a PR perspective? Because if I recall one of the main reasons people were upset is due to the fact there wouldn’t be a timelapse.

I hope it stays for quite a while longer. I don’t see Kings Island removing another coaster anytime soon (although I also said the same after Firehawk was removed). I think The Bat will be here at least till Vortex is replaced. If Action Zone ever gets a much needed retheme and overhaul I think that could help with The Bats ridership.

Each of those rides you listed has a height requirement higher than 42"... and at Kings Island, there are only two coasters below that level (Great Pumpkin Coaster and Woodstock Express). Did you mean 52"? If so, then wouldn't Copperhead Strike be a family coaster at that level?
What I meant was that an ideal family coaster would be 42’ inches however most family coasters are 48 inches. I find a multilaunch, multi inversion rollercoaster with the 52’ inch height requirement to definitely not be considered family. Sure it may not be the most intense rollercoaster out there but it’s certainly high thrill.

I'm not sure Orion has any theming at all. The new Area 72 might. We won't really know if they are doing any real theming for a while.
Cedar Fair as of late has been theming their queues quite a bit (Copperhead strike, Yukon striker & Mystic), I doubt Orion would be an exception.

Ok are you a Vekoma Madhouse sales rep?
Another dark ride would be nice though to have during Winterfest.

I’m guessing there’s about a 20-30 ft elevation difference (With Diamondback sitting on the higher land).

It simply makes almost no sense to add a rollercoaster this upcoming year. They’re already going to have a lot of growth next year with the success of the Gold pass. Adding a rollercoaster wouldn’t do that much in increasing the attendance more. Also it’d make much more sense for them to have already announced it & attempt to advertise it with Orion to boast platinum pass sales.

Maybe the designer & creator of the floats (Kern studios) wasn’t able to make another set of Winterfest parade floats this year? I’m guessing we’ll see the parade come to Kings Island next Winterfest.

No way they announce a coaster imo

Could the reason Woodstock express doesn’t run is due to PTC not wanting their trains to run in the cold? I genuinely have no idea but I could potentially seeing that maybe being why.

^ Cool how they had limos to bring everyone back there for media day. Such an over the top opening though for a family coaster.

Ridiculous, the word Mystic is incredibly generic. Wonder what straw he’s going to reach for next.

It appears Cedar Fair has performed quite well compared to last year.
Some Highlights -
6% increase in attendance
Revenue up 8%
Net Revenue up 7%

Long trains would result in longer, less snappy elements.

I remember seeing a while back a Concept art of a monster jam themed wing coaster, could we maybe see it become reality?

Link? If true I want to see it.
I recently made a post on this forum about it in the other amusement park news & decision section of the forum.

According to RCDB it looks like The Bat still uses an Arrow train
