We probably will not see any teasers or construction walls until the park opens, so we will just have to wait and see!
-
Although an Intamin launch coaster would be nice, I could see Cedar Fair going with Mack Rides for the launch coaster because it would be able to operate during Winterfest like Copperhead Strike, but that is not to say that Intamin couldn’t do the same Also... this is completely unrelated but does anyone know why Banshee is not open for Winterfest when other B&M’s in the Cedar Fair chain are open for Winterfest like Dominator and Afterburn?
-
If Kings Island decides to build their new rollercoaster back where Firehawk used to be, do you think that they will revamp and expand X-Base with new restaurants and possibly new flat rides? Just wondering because that is basically what Carowinds did with Copperhead Strike and the surrounding Blue Ridge Junction
-
I saw a Carowinds post on twitter of Copperhead Strike, and on one of the posters, you could make out the word centurion Honestly, I don’t know why Cedar Fair is still teasing this name as they have been doing this before Fury 325 was even announced Sorry that the picture is not very clear
-
Baynum Painting could also be painting the buildings on International Street as the park stated that they would be receiving new paint jobs and nothing would be left untouched

Firehawk Leaving Kings Island 10/28/18
FUN&ONLY! replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
I thought there was a fairly recent satellite image on this thread that showed the Firehawk plot of land with the coaster being completely gone, but I cannot find it anymore so must have been removed -
Honestly, at the rate Cedar Fair is removing Vekoma coasters, I cannot see them working together on an attraction for the old Crypt building, and I think we should consider other options too
-
I see there being a chance of Cedar Point getting a new coaster in 2020, but like what Tony Clark said, I do not believe that it will be some record breaking monster so maybe like a nice GGI or something
-
I know this is not necessarily any proof, but Tony Clark was quoted saying that the park is focused on going retro for the 2020 season, and they are not necessarily going to build some huge roller coaster https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wkyc.com/amp/article%3fsection=features&headline=cedar-point-planning-150th-anniversary-with-retro-ideas-for-2020-what-we-know-so-far&contentId=95-145df88a-e120-4f2e-b337-484d5a927c3e
-
As much as I want a giga, or anything, in 2020, I do agree that it is far from confirmed that we will be seeing a new coaster, especially since it is not KI’s turn in the chain to receive a new coaster, but this has me wondering who in the chain might end up receiving a new coaster in 2020 if KI does not
-
I guess you are right, but if we start seeing many many B&M hyper track pieces, that may give us a clue as well
-
I have heard these jokes, but I just found it funny that someone renamed it to that on Google, but then again, earlier this year It said that Kings Island was permanently closed
-
-
At this point, I would classify track as suspicious if looks like it could be the track of one of the possible rumored coaster models for Kings Island, and if looks like it is giga track, we might be on to something Btw, I know that the B&M hyper track is used for both gigas and hypers, but it looks as if there is a difference with the track during the drops, so that is something that could be looked for
-
I was just wondering if any suspicious track showed up at Clermont Steel Fabricators if anyone has driven past there recently
-
I guess that is what I was talking about, but I still think that track for such a potentially large project would have to be produced earlier than usual
-
Just a quick question: is there any new signs of suspicious track showing up at Clermont Steel Fabricators? I know that the track for Yukon Striker must have been produced really early considering that painted B&M track was spotted at Canada’s Wonderland in January of 2018, and a giga coaster, if that is what it is, would probably need its track produced pretty early as well
-
So in this discussion, I want to know which parks in the Cedar Fair chain have the best rollercoaster lineups. I definitely think that Cedar Point has the best one right now, and I think that it would be very hard to disagree with that! But what I really want to know is how do the other park lineups in the chain stack up and compare to one another. After Cedar Point, I think the next two best lineups in the chain are at Kings Island and at Carowinds, but I am interested to hear your opinions!
-
I have heard people complain about Mystic Timbers being too short of a ride and that Kings Island will be getting a roller coaster that is like Kingda Ka as it is the best roller coaster in existence They said it not me LOL
-
Awww man! I always loved smoking over near Banshee! LOL But in all honesty, I usually do not find many people smoking in the park, but that may just be with my experience
-
I couldn’t agree more which is why I want an Intamin launch coaster, but it seems like Cedar Fair as a whole is trying to build rides that will appeal to the General Public and bring in more attendance The only exceptions to this are the recent RMC’s they built, and I am not sure they will do this against anytime soon because the attendance at the parks that received the RMC’s was supposedly down earlier in the year
-
I believe it is new as someone already posted about this in another thread
-
I like the concept, and I think that it is really nice when people take their time to make them, so I don’t feel that it is right when people bash others because their concepts aren’t “good enough” Concepts don’t always have to be exact in terms of hight and size
-
I think it depends of if Cedar Fair wants to go for a more family-friendly, less intense ride or for a more thrilling, intense ride to bring in the crowds, but I think that Mack and Intamin can create intense or not-so-intense rides if they chose
-
No I have not, so I am just basing this off of pov’s and other people’s reviews in which most Mack coasters are geared towards hangtime, and I agree that all judgement should be reserved until people actually ride Copperhead Strike
