Dropping faster than a Steel Vengance train plummeting down the first drop!

It’s tough to see someone lose their livelihood, but I’m not disappointed with Tony Clark being let go. Coasterstock and Mother’s Day brunch were axed because of him, with no replacement to follow. Also, his “Morning Flush” event did not go over well and was, quite literally, flushed down the drain. This company badly needs fresh minds in more positions of power. The old guard is stuck in their ways, and holding up progress. Six Flags needs to pivot to current trends with guest experience being at the forefront. As Bob Iger at Disney once said. “Innovate or die.”

Well Orion is only 50ft longer, and 57ft than Diamondback.

Cue the Living With The Land music.

There is a valley right here they could gain some additional drop height. Also there being woods it would enhance the nighttime ride experience.

A Tilt Coaster would make for a great replacement for Inveritgo. A big ominous tilt drop that can been seen from patrons walking into the main gate. Without the tacky flyover that ruins the ambience.

I can understand the frustration. With Disney, why do Florida residents get multiple season pass options when an out of state resident only gets 1? With that only 1 option being their most expensive pass. I thought the language was quite clear with having to activate your pass with the park you purchased from. Either way, can’t wait to hear your trip report for SFOG!

They’re making it difficult for people to circumvent their actual home park to save money. Or at least so it seems.

I’ve heard that too.

If there were modifications made available to ArieForceOne what would you like to see different / changed? I’d like to see better capacity, possibly different restraints all together for trains. If not maybe the quad down at the end be replaced by more gentler airtime hills. The quad down on this and the bunny hop hills on Steel Vengeance are painful to the thighs.

I didn’t renew my All Parks, All Season Fast Lane for 2026 because I find little value with it when visiting Kings Island, which is my home park. For this reason I would only purchase daily FastLane tickets for my visits to other Six Flags parks and so far, I’ve saved a lot of money doing so that way.

I arie on the side of caution and a bit torn on Kings Island getting ArieForceOne. Just a recap on hand me down coasters given to KI. You had Firehawk, mechanical issues and poor capacity. Eventually removed to make way for another hand me down coaster being MegaBite which was modified to “fit” giga standards and renamed Orion which is the worst giga coaster in the country. There’s a chance this won’t be the same coaster after modifications are made to fit the capacity, topography, and other park needs are for installation at wherever they plan on putting it. On the other hand, given the track record of recent coaster installations at Kings Island, one could argue that Orion, and RiverRacers are a bust. The kids area ranking literally dropped after the installation of Snoopy’s Soap Box Racers. So acquiring ArieForceOne might be a safer bet in terms of ride experience if the coaster doesn’t recieve major modifications.

Maybe they’ll announce bankruptcy, or that they hired a janitor, or maybe new ice machine dispensers.

I agree. They need to move to an RFID system. Way too many times I get stuck behind someone at the parking lot gate not knowing how to scan their phone…
