FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 I always thought this roller coaster would be really fun so I think KI should build one, its small, would fit anywhere, and could be an adult version of Avatar Quote
Browntggrr Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 I would rather see more flats than a coaster like that. Quote
Dvo Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Boo I would not want that ride at KI... I'm sure it's fun, but that seems like a ride that would get very boring after riding it once... Tomb Raider what? Quote
CoastersRZ Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Not to mention that the capacity on that ride is probably pretty low. And as others said, there isn`t much to it. Quote
KIfan73 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 I think it would be a great addition, especially if themed with X-Games or Tony Hawk or something like that. Quote
PKIVortex Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 We already have some low capacity coaters, I don't think we need anymore. Quote
FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 19, 2007 Author Posted September 19, 2007 Yeah just wishfull thinking, think it looks like a fun ride that would take up little space. I do like the idea of an X-Games theme, maybe in Xbase? Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Yea they could maybe put that in where that Euro Bungie is. Quote
Dvo Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 The only ride that should be themed like X-Games is SOB. Haven't you seen how bad people get hurt in the X-Games? Quote
Beast1979 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 No! Low Capacity Coasters are something KI does not need. Besides, That really does not fit the KI Atmosphere. Not much does, besides a B&M!!!!!!!!!!! Beast1979 Quote
DeLorean Rider Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 How is that more adult than avatar? Quote
hausty1983 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Cough Cough how about a B&M Invert similar to Raptor with three trains with awesome capcity but something themed to The Bat almost just a thought Quote
Ki Man Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Add that and it will be official that KI has the worst large collection of coasters in theme park history. Quote
DropZone99 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 ^ Not really, there's park's with alot more "bad" coasters. Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 I think it would be a great addition, especially if themed with X-Games or Tony Hawk or something like that. Mr. Hawk has an exclusive contract with a competing park chain...one that numbers its flags. Quote
DropZone99 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 We could use Rodney Mullen, Ryan Sheckler, Rob Drydreck, um... Quote
KIfan73 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Maybe just have it themed to skating (skateboarding), and at opening have a big skate demo with some big pros. It would definitely be something different, and would be something that a lot of kids are really into. Quote
FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 20, 2007 Author Posted September 20, 2007 That sounds like a really cool idea actually. Quote
KIBeast Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 It does look like a neat coaster, but, I have to agree with the others about low capacity. KI doesn't need any more of those. I also like the idea of an inverted coaster named The Bat. Quote
FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 20, 2007 Author Posted September 20, 2007 Im still excited to see if TG will get a new paint job and the original name Thunder Road or Run or whatever it was supposed to be, maybe some themeing? Fog again? Quote
DiSab Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Yeah, I'm also really liking the Invert Bat idea. It doesn't have to have The Bat name necessarily, but a B&M invert would fit really nicely in X-Base. Or they could put it out past Racer's turnaround. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the park still owns a good amount of land back there... Quote
House Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Something like the Raptor would be awesome! Quote
FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 20, 2007 Author Posted September 20, 2007 Or dueling dragons at Islands of Adventure would be sweet as well. Thats my favorite inverted coaster ever! Quote
Beast1979 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Cough Cough how about a B&M Invert similar to Raptor with three trains with awesome capcity but something themed to The Bat almost just a thought That would be just about perfect! Quote
FOFirehawkFAN Posted September 20, 2007 Author Posted September 20, 2007 So we're decided a coasted like Raptor in X-Base, and a Dive Coaster near rivertown? Quote
DropZone99 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 I like both idea's. I even made a design for the dive machine in Rivertown. I post a picture here in few minutes. =] Quote
DropZone99 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Here is the dive machine. and another pic. I might make a B&M inverted coaster on RCT3 and post some pics on here later. =] Quote
KIfan73 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 I researched the ride that this thread is about, and its actually called "half-pipe". Anybody that's rode a half pipe knows that this ride would be a real rush. Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 ...though the line, particularly at a park the size of Kings Island, would not be... Quote
Monroe Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 You could build a coaster and name it after me. But you would end up with a coaster with old fat trains that keep falling off the track and complains a lot. Quote
