mtl2013 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I really dont feel the need to get rid of congo falls. But, it hasnt really been getting much traffic, so if they feel they must, I would say put in a cool flat ride in there. No preference on wut type or anything like that. -matt who is tired beyond belief- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgshredder33 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I wouldn't want them to get rid of Congo Falls, just clean up the water. It smells so bad, like sweaty people with too much sunscrean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasper Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Congo Falls is a great place to cool off on a hot day at Kings Island. A lot of people ride it. I would not get rid of it. I'd get rid of "the wooden piece of crap" that stands in the front of the park, and like a lot of you said, a B&M invert. The only reason that would not be a good idea is because Invertigo is right next to SOB - it would look kind of weird having two inverted coasters. But still, that's a good idea. Just look at Cedar Point, it has Wicked Twister, and then right across the midway, Raptor. Two great, classic inverts both providing a different ride experience, much the same as Invertigo and say a B&M invert would. Alot of things can fit in Congo's Space. It's alot bigger than you think. I know in The Go Kart's lot coaster such as Afterburn and Balder could fit there with extra room! Yes I agree totally. Judging from the ridership Thunder Alley gets and the reviews. Most of the reviews I have heard, people have said they are slow and not much fn at all to drive. I don't think we want to start losing all of our water rides- just look at CP... Isn't Cedar Point getting Shoot The Rapids, a water flume ride mixed in with a coaster in some ways? I count that as they are adding water rides instead of dropping them.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be offensive with my last post. I'm borderline obeise and I sweat more than most of my friends, It might just be genetics. But I am sorry to who all I offended.

The Interpreter Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Just making an observation... Terpy, who notes some of the smelliest people he's ever encountered in parks were thin little people...body odor is not restricted to the corpulent...

Thrill_Biscuit Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 A Jump2 would be nice, and would look keen on the Kings Island skyline between Drop Tower and Face/... dang it ... Invertigo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I so loved Jumping Jack Flash aka Jump at Great Adventure....though it seemed to not work as often or even more often that it did work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Ah, yes! It's hip to be squared. I'd take the ol' sledgehammer to the 'Falls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 A nice little compact Intiamn **cough cough maverick cough cough** would fit perfect there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Can you just imagine the Cedar Point fanbois if it were announced that Maverick were moving to Kings Island? You could hear the Sandusky screams from Ludlow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firehawkboy Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 - A small B&M Invert or Floorless. Like this picture: http://rcdb.com/1549.htm?p=14954 (Just picture that parking lot as the Timberwolf Theater and you'll see what I mean.)

The Interpreter Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Do know that that ride is about the most forceless B and M I have ever ridden. It makes Hydra The Revenge seem exciting, and that's saying something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveStroem Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I too am not a big fan of B&M floorless coasters, or for that matter Stand-ups and even their sit down twisters. I do love their Hypers and Inverts. Since KI already has the Hyper covered, it would be great to get a invert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptor is 15 years old. I guess I am getting old too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
