^ ^That post just made me spit my drink out all over my desk!

... Hmm X-Flight being removed... Big clearing behind Racer... Hate to say it but I told you guys sooo...

All I can say is wow. Just got back from the Wolfe Lodge after staying 1 night for free! My friends uncle actually worked on all the plumbing so they gave him two free rooms. We had a regular room, which was great, and my friends and I stayed in a Kid's cabin room. It was so cool. They had a miniature cabin inside the room with bunkbeds plus a regular bed. The arcade was pretty big but the problem is that it was pretty expensive... One of the games was like 10 tokens and most others were 3-4. Also it closes pretty early... like at 10, which I think is too early. The food was really good too, we had the breakfast buffet. What can I say about the waterpark... amazing. It was huge and really fun. Our favorite ride was definitely Hydro Plunge, which is the one that uses LIM's to launch you up the hills. Yeah I would definitely recommend visiting the Great Wolfe Lodge... It is absolutely awesome. I can't fit all the cool stuff it has in it.

I know and I'm sorry I don't have much evidence to tell you... I can't tell you the whole story... But does it seem like a coincidence to you that my cousin who doesn't know anything about roller coasters just happened to find out about a ride named X-Flight being moved from another park to King's Island before anything was said about it being dismantled and now it's said it's being dismantled... I don't see how this would mean it is at another park... But believe whatever you want to believe... I'm done with this thread... there's no reason for me to check up on it anymore. I'm positive it is coming to King's Island...

Sorry... I shouldn't of said next year... I know 100% that we're getting X-Flight but I can't remember if she said she knew it was this year or the next... A reason I believe her is because she doesn't follow up on roller coasters and she doesn't really care... She previously had no idea what X-Flight was and she didn't even know where it was from... She just said her manager told her that they had just finished a meeting and they said they were getting a rollercoaster called X-Flight... She knew I am a fan and she told me that the ride was X-Flight and it was a flying type rollercoaster... Then I got on here to see if there was anything on it getting dismantled etc. and I saw this topic. It was a huge surprise to me because I was expecting a flat ride... I didn't think, and don't know how they will be able to get it in for '07...

Just because I haven't been on these boards for long and I haven't posted barely anything... Doesn't mean that I don't know anything about roller coasters... You don't know me... you don't know the details of the information I have...

Alright... I'm not going to argue with you... You can believe me or not... Like I said... I'm 100% sure that X-Flight will be at Kings Island. 100% And when you find out that it is the new ride... You should feel stupid if you didn't believe me.

Alright... I know I don't post here much... and you can choose to believe me or not... But I know for sure that the new ride for next year is X-Flight from Gueaga Lake... I learned from my cousin who is an employee. She talked with someone in upper management in the park and they had just had a meeting where they were talking about future plans for the park... and she said that this person told her they were getting a roller coaster called X-Flight where you rode like you were flying... She didn't know for sure where it was going but she mentioned that she had seen construction by Outer Limits and Racer... Like I said... I don't really care if you believe me or not... I probably wouldn't believe me either if some random person was saying this. I'm 100% sure the new ride is X-Flight.

King Cobra needed to be torn down... sad, yes... but it was getting old and every coaster has to come to an end sometime... If I remember right... it had a lot of down-time before it was torn down... If you look upi King Cobra on RCDB it says that the track is still in storage and you can see it when you ride SOB... The trains are in the Outer Limits building...

I agree...

It is supposed to open late 2006... Here is Great Wolf Lodges home page- http://www.greatwolfresorts.com/ Here are some photos of other Great Wolf Lodges- Here's an overview of the one we're getting-

You are right... I haven't ridden it since it has been fixed... so maybe it is better... but those seats aren't so good...

I agree that I would be happy if they did rebuild a woodie... but not exactly like SOB. Add some more airtime spots... make it more of a terrain coaster like its father... and keep the loop... I don't think we're running out of woodies... I don't think we ever will... the builders know better than that...

What I meant was for them to build a thrilling ride (particularly a coaster) or improve something that will be noticable... not to spend 26 million on expansion like at Geauga... People that have been to the park over the years are used to Paramount... and many people don't really know how Cedar Fair is. They need to do a little something that will make people say... "These owners are better than Paramount." Something that would get people excited!

Coney Mall would be a good place for a new flat if anywhere... If it wasn't a random theme like Italian Job...

SOB is horrible... it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't rough... but still... it wouldn't be that great of a ride... it lacks airtime and it doesn't deserve to have the phrase Beast in it... They should have made the ride more like it's father... more of the terrain coaster type... The terrain that Son of Beast is on is great for a terrain coaster. They could of made the coaster shorter in height and then make it longer in length so that it would beat it's fathers length record that has held up so many years... They could also put a loop in there... There are just so many things wrong with this coaster... (Sorry SOB fans)

Son of Beast, because I don't know why somebody would want to create a ride that likes to torture people...

If I were the CEO of Cedar Fair... I would make a big entrance and build something big and thrilling... something that people would be extremely excited about... Then the people that didn't really know Cedar Fair or that didn't keep up with these things would immediately like them... But I'm not a CEO so I don't know what the right thing to do is...

That would be awesome... Cedar Fair could build a coaster a million times better... an Intamin Giga or a Mega coaster with awesome airtime. Kings Island really needs a smoother, bigger ride... Italian Job is smooth... but pfft... it's Italian Job and it doesn't matter because the ride isn't good anyhow... I think they're up to date enough with the family stuff to go ahead and build a new thriller...

At KI 1)The Beast (Just awesome) 2)Face Off (The Drop) 3)Outer Limits (The launch) 4)The Racer (Airtime) 5)Vortex (First drop) All 1)Millenium Force (Amazing) 2)The Beast 3)Magnum XL 200 (Airtime) 4)Borg Assimalator (Flying) 5)Top Thrill Dragster (Adrenaline Rush)

I really don't think the color matters as long as it's a good ride... which The Beast is an excellent ride...
