Construction seems to be well under way, looking at all the work they’ve done from WindSeeker had put all doubts about the layout being fake, match’s up perfectly.
-
They’re cheaper then your standard ground up steel coaster I believe.
-
@Magenta Lizard also posted close ups of the posters that clearly showed rain droplets on them.
-
What if they’ve been doing this the whole time and just taking them down in the morning. Seriously though very strange how they’re gone now.
-
Not to mention there was clearly water on those posters, way to high quality to be photoshop.
-
I’m going to stop you right there.
-
Date the ride opened.
-
Anyone know where the Firehawk loop went? Last I saw it was on a truck along time ago.

Those are for Hershey Park
-
All he said was what we already know plus the fact the park will stay open 2 hours later & the announcement will be projected onto the FoF building.
-
Hmm earlier the post didn’t say that, I think he edited it in.
-
He didn’t give a date though, making the post kind of useless & vague.

I usually don’t have my phone on me so it won’t really affect me but it’s nice to see parks integrating technology more. -
Yes that’s true but the number of elements a ride has also plays a role in how long a ride feels, and as we all know B&M rollercoasters typically are more drawn out.
-
People have speculated that CGA was supposed to receive a hyper coaster in 2020 but instead they put the money that would have been used to build that coaster and reallocated it to the KI Giga.
-
I can see a few reasons for why it’s so short 1 - It’s proximity to Cedar Point, It doesn’t sound that unlikely the reason this coaster is short is due to Cedar Fair not wanting to take the spotlight off of their flagship park 2- The high amount of capital they’ve spent this year, half a billion dollars is a very high amount for Cedar Fair 3- If the money really was originally meant for CGA then they’d be the biggest reason it’s so short.
-
I believe Diamondback track was already there before the announcement though, I wouldn’t say one coaster sets the trend. It wasn’t that long ago when Cedar Fair installed large amounts of coaster track before the announcement. Station track being installed before the announcement isn’t that unreasonable
-
Not necessarily, I doubt anyone in marketing truly cares if track is being installed before the announcement.
-
No they’re not, Cedar Fair most likely had hired a firm to produce the commercials. The first year they started to do it was 2013 with Gold striker & GateKeeper. Every year since has used a similar animation style except this year.
-
As per the animated commercials I haven’t seen any for Yukon Striker or Copperhead strike, anyone know if those rides even have TV commercials? I know Hangtime, Steel Vengeance & Twisted timbers all had them.
-
After riding Skyhawk at Cedar Point id absolutely LOVE an S&S screamin’ Swing, it’d definitely be my favorite flat in the park.
-
Yeah Kings Island is definitely ejecting them, I’ve seen 4 party’s this year with their cell phones out all of which were ejected from the park. They often times stack the trains to wait for security to arrive.

Probably nothing, rides break down, it happens.
