RidewarrioR1993 Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 if the land was not flat and all bumpy and stuff its not like they cant go behind FOF and FH and flaten out the land. its totally possible and i would love to see a ride like ttg at Kings Island
HTCO Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 ...and i would love to see a ride like ttg at Kings Island Did you mean TTD? I don't think we would get one of those unless its going to break KK's record.
catzdrummer09 Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 Sure, now Standup coasters havn't been built since 1999 by B&M. I expect one in the near future, but its all up to the parks who contract with B&M. I could see KI Getting a flat in coney mall. Probably in between The Racer and Vortex. Maybe a ferris wheel, or something like Delirium or the Crypt. Why would they put anything in like Delirium or The Crypt? If I'm not mistaken, we already have those exact rides....no?

While Delirium is most certainly staying, it's looking like The Crypt is leaving after this season (or before, if it's THAT broken). So maybe we can get a normal top spin in Coney Mall.
HTCO Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 If we get rid of a top spin, I'm almost certain we won't get one back in return... We shall get Chaos!!
catzdrummer09 Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 I, personally, would like a larger, modified, version of Xcelerator back in X-Base for our next coaster. Maybe mixed with Speed Monster.
Ki Man Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 That area cries out for restrooms, much as the area near Steel Force did at Dorney Park...and it got them! AMEN
mtl2013 Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 haha "coney island rocks",that is a sweet pic! and i think its very unlikely that thre will b any new coaster at KI in this economy, ye4s even a flat ride. I would like to c on eon the old king cobra site
CincyMan98 Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Don't get your hopes up. A new coaster probably won't be up until 5 years from now.
Kris_2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 ...and i would love to see a ride like ttg at Kings Island Did you mean TTD? I don't think we would get one of those unless its going to break KK's record. TTD is fun, but I'd rather see a ride that is longer then 20 seconds. A B&M Floorless or Invert would be awesome, or a giga intamin Getting a giga though would probably have the same chance of getting a TTD look a like
KIBOB Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Apparently, by the way things are looking, i wouldnt be suprised to see a new flat in Coney Mall next year. I do feel however, that according to multiple reports, KD is going to be the park with all the coaster hype next year.
RideFast4Ever! Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 For 2009, KI has announced that they would rebuild Red Beard's Revenge as bigger and better since the building was used for a gift shop. I wonder if it will be in an existing building, or a new one.
CedarPointer Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Hmmm... I wonder which buildings could easily be emptied... that were going to be closed anyway... that are located in the back of the park... past Vortex... and play an annoying movie...
coaster_junky Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 ^wouldn't it be difficult to have two different haunt attractions in the same building? expecially since they would share the same exit.

A B&M Floorless or Invert would be awesome, or a giga intamin Getting a giga though would probably have the same chance of getting a TTD look a like B&M Invert FTW! (for the win). Although, I wouldn't get your hopes up... Your lookin' at a possible 5 years for another coaster.
Beast1979 Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Stranger things have happened (2000-Millennium Force, 2001-Wicked Twister, 2003-Top Thrill Dragster) But I do believe that the "5 years" idea is a bit far. How long does it take before a ride pays for itself and we can start investing in another major attraction? Diamondback is about to get one million, that's 1,000,000, rides this season, and we haven't hit Halloween Haunt yet. Plus, where do you think Cedar Fair will be in 5 years? I see them adding rides very frequently for the next few years to keep them from hitting bankruptcy to soon.
Kris_2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I see them adding rides very frequently for the next few years to keep them from hitting bankruptcy to soon. I don't Given the economy most people this year are not going on long vacations to a beach for example (not the water park lol), instead they are seeking cheaper and closer alternatives. This year they will have a great year. Adding rides that cost millions is going to do nothing more then add to the debt. These coasters do bring in riders, but I don't believe they bring in enough to keep them from bankruptcy. I guess they could go the other route and just add rides for the hell of it. Hey they are going to go bankrupt, might as well go out in style.
The Interpreter Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Hmmmm. Kings Dominion Carowinds And others I shant be listing here. Yet.
KI Kevin Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Stranger things have happened (2000-Millennium Force, 2001-Wicked Twister, 2003-Top Thrill Dragster) If I am correct, Wicked Twister debuted in 2002. I just find it interesting that they have had 4 coasters ever since the new Millennium (can be used both ways), and they were all Intamins.
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 CP new coasters from 1999-2009 Woodstock Express in 1999 Millienium Force in 2000 Wicked Twister in 2002 Top Thrill Dragester in 2003 Maverick in 2007 Cost Woodstock Express? MF $25,000,000 WT $9,000,000 TTD $25,000,000 Maverick $21,000,000 That over 80 million dollars in 10 years. http://rcdb.com/pd1.htm
Fear the Four Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I wish Kings Island would get something like Maverick.
hausty1983 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Is there a chance the B&M contract has KI getting more coasters in the next few years or just Cedar Fair parks other than KI in that contract? How does the contracts usually work? I'm wondering if it would be in a row or every other few years we could possibly get something new???
HTCO Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 ^ I'm wondering the same thing. Because if they did sign a contract with B&M, I see us getting another one in the future.
Beast1979 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I wouldn't be surprised if Cedar Fair signed a multiple ride contract with B&M, Behemoth then Diamondback, and maybe one of the 2010 investments? Similar to Busch and the B&M Dive Machines Shiekra and Griffon.
Diamondback FOF Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 I see them adding rides very frequently for the next few years to keep them from hitting bankruptcy to soon.

These coasters do bring in riders, but I don't believe they bring in enough to keep them from bankruptcy. I guess they could go the other route and just add rides for the hell of it. Hey they are going to go bankrupt, might as well go out in style. I can definitely tell the economy isn't doing too well and people can't afford to go on vacations so much. I don't think I've ever seen KI constantly crowded on Mondays and Tuesdays. People are staying home more and doing local things, like going to KI. Hmmmm. Kings Dominion Carowinds And others I shant be listing here. Yet. Would Cedar Point and Canada's Wonderland be a part of the 'others'? Is there a chance the B&M contract has KI getting more coasters in the next few years or just Cedar Fair parks other than KI in that contract? How does the contracts usually work? I'm wondering if it would be in a row or every other few years we could possibly get something new??? There was a rumor I heard that CF had contracted B&M for three hyper coasters: CW, KI, and Carowinds (supposedly).
LongliveKingsCobra Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 Does anybody else assume Terpy as: Chuck Norris and Hagrid from Harry Potter, always seem to be saying...I shouldn't of told you that, I should not of told you that lol? Anyone? Excpet Terpy offers insight, that you have to decrypt(sp?) [i know terpy is going to say something about, Oh no no one has to decrpt my messages, but Kings Island needs to decrypt itself.... ]
The Interpreter Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Actually he isn't going to say that.... Terpy, not always predictable...
LongliveKingsCobra Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Oh I thought I had you....oh well. Cobra who feels ashamed.... lol jk
