Guest rcfreak339 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Video of the new ride looks preety bad A$$ don't you think? You can change your ride experince from mild to wild and flip upside down. I wonder how long it would take before The Stratasphere in Las Vegas to get one of these nifty rides. I hope KI can get it's hands on one.

I hope KI can get it's hands on one. Nevermind, not quite what I was thinking of. But it's still the same basic idea. It would be awesome to have one at KI Maybe tear down that go-kart ride in the Action Zone and replace it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 It's kind of reminiscent of "Flight Commander". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Or the Chance Aviator at Kings Dominion, though perhaps actually fun...Chance Aviators are perhaps the most visually stunning but spectacularly boring flat rides ever made!

Justin_M17 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I'd have a blast going on something like that. I really wish CF would pay the money to put that in XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't ridden the Aviator, but having read up on it, it looks like the experience would be similar to that of Zephyr, only much higher off the ground, and without the 'tilt'. This thing rcfreak339 posted seems a lot more thrilling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Oh, the Chance Aviator is far worse than that...the Zephyr goes at least three times faster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 rcfreak, that looks like an insane ride. Wouldn't mind getting one of those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 That looks nutz but too much spinning for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausty1983 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I can't do anything that spins the entire time like that it would make me sick lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree, they have one at Kemah Boardwalk... i thought it would be some what thrilling, but i was wanting off cause it was wasting my time.

[/quot] You don't have to flip upside down or spin its your own ride exsperince and makes the ride fun. You flip yourself upside down by pushing side to side.

Cortney Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Dude KI had a ride like that, Flight Commander, especially if you control it, that won't be coming to KI again I don't think. I wouldn't ride it, no way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Well, saying that ride is like Flight Commander is kind of like saying Vortex is like Roller Skater at Kentucky Kingdom. Yes, that ride and Flight Commander are both flat rides that you have some control over, but there is a tremendous difference in the ride experiences. I can tell that merely by viewing the video...and comparing it to my memories of riding Flight Commander....which was, quite frankly, nothing special...even back in the day.

Jasper Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I would say that if KI did get one of those Sky Roller's then i am guessing it would be a pay-per ride attraction. It does look nutz though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Flying Eagles on steroids. I would ride it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
