westcoaster Posted April 30, 2012 Posted April 30, 2012 Under paramount wasn't one of the possibilites for KI was adams family kind of dive coaster? That would be cool. So what is 2013 ? Rehab start of Action Zone? Quote
Oldschool75 Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 I hope something with some construction through the season,because I love all the speculation of what something is. Quote
KingsIsland vs. Cedarpoint Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 http://www.coasterimage.com/pictures/albums/cedar-point-pictures/rides-attractions-pictures/other-rides-pictures/10.jpg This type of ride Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Seeing how Ouimet is trying to get more family friendly rides/attractions in, I would love to see a spinning coaster like the one at Knott's. Quote
Oldschool75 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 http://www.coasterim...pictures/10.jpg This type of ride We had one, it was called Skylab, except it had bigger cars. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 For good reason. Ask Camden Park. Or Dollywood. Or even Kings Island. It's the ride's maker hoos had problems, so to speak. On second thought....don't ask Dollywood, they just entered into a confidential settlement with them and can't talk about it. Quote
Diamondbacker Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Terp, Is the new Dare Devil Drop ride at SFoG any good? I saw that ride, and thought it would be a nice new addition to the park. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Yes. It's a fun little ride. Relatively low capacity though. Many of us think of it as Maverick light. Quote
thejej Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 I would like to possibly ride SOB one last time, but since that doesn't seem possible, I'd like to see another ride like The Beast that takes you into the woods and that is kind of relaxing. Quote
HWBeast1039 Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 For the 45th or 50th aniversary, KI should start a walktrough Kings Island History Museum. 2 Quote
Joncars05 Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I would love to see a Vertical Drop/Dive Coaster like Sheikra or Griffon. *Post #100!!!* Quote
A.S.Coasters Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 ^I can picture one very nicely back by The Beast. Quote
Maverick00 Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 I don't think I'd like it by The Beast. Diamondback was just built back there. Quote
thunderbeast1968 Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 I know Cedar Point is getting a Wing Coaster, but have you seen, "The Swarm" love the theme. Oh, maybe a nice B & M floorless. Quote
TheCrypt Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 I don't think you could get a roller coaster in the back of the park, because of the alive dinosaurs and X-Base blocking it off, as well as The Racer. The only way I think they could add another roller coaster is to knock down Son of Beast or another ride/attraction of sorts and bring something else in. That's how I see it. http://binged.it/MnEm4O Quote
WHODEY2007 Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 I would love to see something like City Walk at Universal added to KI. I really enjoy all the resturants, shops, and night spots there. Quote
kaitlinfree Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 wish - fix the SOB, or put something like Leviathan in its place. I KNOW I KNOW, we have Diamondback, but i just feel KI does not have enough thrills. or another looping coaster that does not beat you to death, such as Vortex does. Quote
A.S.Coasters Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 ^Instead of Leviathan why not just put an Intamin Giga there? Quote
TheCrypt Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Can the same be said for Top Thrill Dragster? Kingda Ka? How 'bout Maverick? Quote

Diamondback, Vortex, Beast, Invertigo, Racer, Drop Tower, Delirium, *WindSeeker*, Flight Deck, Flight of Fear, Firehawk, etc...what are you talking about? Quote
TheCrypt Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 There are only 4 rides that go upside down at Kings Island, I think that's what he means by "thrill". I wonder what the GP would think if they ever realized that! Quote
A.S.Coasters Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Can the same be said for Top Thrill Dragster? Kingda Ka? How 'bout Maverick? Are any of those Giga coasters? Quote
TheCrypt Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Intimidator 305-The first 1/3 of the ride had to be redesigned due to extreme forces not forseen in the ride's design to accommodate trim brakes. Intamin Giga Coaster? Yes. Millennium Force- Riders are stranded 275' in the air--cable snap. Timmy's Giga? I think so. http://www.rideaccidents.com/2001.html#sep2b Quote
A.S.Coasters Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I305, ok but not the style I was aiming for. I'm sure after that Intamin would be more careful. Millennium Force, how often do you think that happens? Seems to me it's been over 10 years since that happened. I would say that's more of a rare occurrance than a liability. Rides have their faults, none of them can be perfect. Quote
