  1. I thought I read closed for good, I was like jeez Kings Dominion, you really are Kings Island's sister park closing coasters left and right out of nowhere.
  2. So this came out of nowhere. They made a family coaster model to appeal to smaller parks. Glad to see how this goes.
  3. So Gene Staples is looking into buying Fantasy Island. This would make Gene Staples a theme park chain owner. It was said that he has plans to further his growth into the amusement park industry and it definitely looks like he’s doing that. Here is the vid for more info:
  4. Oh so it is it's own thing. Got it. Hey, at least Coney Island is getting back on their feet. Seems that they are actually taking all of this pretty well.
  5. It didn't break the record for steepest drop, that goes to the classic Gerstlauer Eurofighters like Speed: No Limits at Oakwood and Vild-Svinet at BonBon-Land. However, it was supposed to break the record for fastest inversion but that heartline roll got removed for too many G's that caused stress on the trains and the riders.
  6. It's getting an slc, Liseberg's old launch coaster (Kanonen), and a wacky worm. Pretty good lineup for a park starting out, also great theming. I think this park is going to be America's Energylandia, it's going to constantly grow.
  7. If you don't know what Scandia Screamer is, it is E&F Miler's largest coaster and was very well received for its drops and airtime. It was closed down with it's park, Scandia, and people were very upset about it. We just got news that a new park in Texas called Trader's Village has bought Scandia Screamer as it's main attraction and it will be renamed Prairie Screamer! Here is the video for more info:
  8. This is the exact same case with Goliath. Harley Quinn has been taken off of the DK map. This ride is a lot more likely to get removed apart from Goliath because the ride is barely ever open and nobody likes the ride. Any thoughts on what might happen to Harley Quinn?
  9. Guys, how have we not thought of this? I think CP will break the height record with a Gerstlauer polercoaster. It’s one of a kind, it’s definitely record breaking, and it solves the problem for space
  10. And I'm glad they did lol. So I'm planning to upload a concept of the new record breaker to my channel. I'll let you guys know when I do.
  11. I would like to point out one thing. Most people, and I mean like 95% of people, don't go to Cedar Point for the flat rides or the shows. They go for the coasters. Even the general public knows that Cedar Point is roller coaster paradise and that if you go, you better be going for the coasters. Plus, CP is known to open only record breaking attractions. Name one coaster at CP that isn't a family coaster that didn't break a record when it opened. It just makes perfect sense for CP to get this. If they are going to get a record breaker, they are either going for steepest or most inversions. I could see both to be honest.
  12. Keep dreaming man, last huge addition Michigan’s Adventure got was an slc and their last addition was a kids section retheme. Not trying to sound rude or anything, but the only way that MI will get a new coaster is if they go the family run park route.
  13. Guys...I know KI has a reputation of adding a coaster every 3 years, but what if this is the coaster to replace Vortex?
  14. Yeah I'm not on that train of the most painful being Banshee. I'm only 5 foot 7 inches and I'm skinny. I have never had any problems with really any roughness on any coaster besides Beast.
  15. Worst vekoma coaster I've ridden is Roller Skater. Roller Skater is a rough ride but its for families, what do you expect? That also tells you how measly my coaster count is . Worst Zamperla I've ridden is Southern Express at OWA, but that is also a kiddie coaster. No, I don't think Rollin' Thunder is bad, it is in my top 5.
  16. If we are counting The Beast as a dinn, that would be my pick
  17. Goliath at SFNE has been removed.... ...from the park map. So this might be the secret announcement of the removal of Goliath. Here is a video to explain more.
  18. Ooooooohhh, got it. I'll have to think about that for a little bit.
  19. Backlot - Bavarian Beetle Delirium - Firehawk Lara Croft - Demon
  20. Yeah cheetah looked like a fun cci. Glad that you shared your experience! Glad you had a great time!
