Losers. Also by that definition is Apollo's Chariot not even a hyper? Technically Fury and Leviathan are hypers because gigas are from Intamin.

Are you commuting or are you staying in a resort?

Ground up hybrids are kinda dumb. RMC hybrids existed to fix old, crappy wooden coasters in need of help. I'd prefer a wood over a hybrid, especially with our already stellar collection of wooden coasters.
-
A ground-up hybrid wouldn't really make sense considering rmc's never done that before, at that point you might as well get a T-Rex.
-
I think we'll get RMC and another B&M for our next big coasters. I think we'll get an RMC similar to Goliath at SFGA except longer. Then possibly a floorless or dive after that. I think we're full on mid-range coasters with The Bat, AE, BLSC, and MT. What we really need are flats to be installed in between coaster additions

I just watched this video and the creator said he opted KI since we only had 2 when the video was released. After Orion I still think we'll be due for one more B&M-whether that's a floorless to replace Vortex, a Dive/wing near Banshee, a resurrection of the standup model, or something else. I still think we'll get something from RMC and maybe another company but I don't think this is the last we've seen from B&M.

Orion Coming to Kings Island in 2020

Now we need flats to complement those attractions -
Orion Coming to Kings Island in 2020
SonofBaconator replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
It starts to sync really well towards the end -
With the coming of Orion, X-Base will be renamed Area 72 in 2020 paying homage to the year KI opened its gates. From the promo video it looks like they're will be a meteorite in front of Flight of Fear as well as a news van and a green vehicle of sorts. What else do you think Area 72 will bring?

Could backwards blue racer be making a return next year?
SonofBaconator replied to Thabto's topic in Kings Island
There's no other rendering of a coaster where most of the Racer was in the video. This was the only one that featured The Racer's trains -
It was a joke but I did make RMC throughout Cedar Fair if you wanna check it out

Orion Coming to Kings Island in 2020

I thought the same thing. I wouldn't be suprised if the FoF photo booth got overhauled or repurposed. I had a thought that Slingshot could move to Area 72 since it doesn't take up much space but I don't know where they'd put it. -

SonofBaconator replied to Thabto's topic in Kings Island
That seems like a strange thing to do. Why throwback something taken out over a decade ago? All its gonna do is get us excited for something that was just an easter egg. -
Okay I'm gonna go make another speculatuon thread that'll span years
-
Sooo are we done here?

I'm one of the few people who likes the entrance how it is. There's nothing cooler than walking into the park and having all of international Street open up. I think having a coaster right as you walk up to the gates takes away from the park's centerpiece which is the Eiffel Tower.

Canada's Wonderland 2020
SonofBaconator replied to Rivertown Rider's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The only issue I have is that it's not an enclosed environment like a slide or even a slide complex where you drop in a tube. All it takes is for one person to land the wrong way in smack their back or something worse. At my old pool where I used to lifeguard we had a man pass away after going into cardiac arrest because his body went to shock when he dove into the deep end. -
Canada's Wonderland 2020

The diving attraction looks like fun, not often seen big chain waterparks. Usually parks opt for enclosed attractions lilke slides so this will certainly be different! -
Dorney Park 2020
SonofBaconator replied to Oldiesmann's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I'm trying to remember if CF installed any coasters when F325 was built. Usually if a park installs a big B&M, the rest of the parks in the chain are lucky to get a coaster that same season- unless its something cheap like RMC or GCI. A raptor wouldn't be too far off but with Hydra in the same park its unlikely. -
