Realistic off season rehabs for Kings Island areas 2012-2013.

Featured Replies

So what area do you believe will get rehabs/revamps this year? What kind of new theming would you like to see in some of the areas? For me it would probably be OktoberFest, and Soak City. OktoberFest- New german theming, maybe a bit of polka players inside the Festhaus, a new fountain, some more austrian pines (keeping with the German feel), and also a new archway for Oktoberfest (with rod iron grapevines etc). Soak City-Now im not sure if they wanted a Miami theme and or a islander theme, but here are some ideas. Near the Thunder Falls some tikis sticking out of the ground, some tiki torches along the walkways, some "surfboards" sticking out of the wavepool enterance (Tidal Wave Bay), bring back some of the old fishing nets, plant palm/banana trees in the ground (maybe cold hardy?) around the enterance, finally for the grassy area near the conjoining walkways to Zoom Flume/Splash River a sandy walkway with tropical plants (such as the Australian Canna, and Colocasia Elephant Ears).

^ SC (you know, the FORMER Boomerang Bay) was just done. :P

I also wouldn't put too much thought into a truely "themed" area. Cleaned up? New paint? New signs? Sure. New theme or improved theme? I'll be shocked.

they need to put flats in oktoberfest! why is it called octoberfest when they dont have any flats!

It's not Oktoberflats, just so you know. Who said it had to have flats?

Plus, Sling Shot is technically in Oktoberfest - oh , and Viking Fury.

Yes, well when you can go to Carowinds more often you get over the BB complex. Now on the SC topic, I think it just needs a bit of extra ideas, its still being worked on today (last time I went was last week) with the new stuff, so it could get a bit more theming.

And what will you do when you can't travel a few hundred miles to Carowinds to enjoy BB?

'Cause, ya know, it will become SC.

How about remove that Ugly Spindly Tower of Slings and move it to Action Zone, then replace with German stuff (or landscaping)? Oh, oh! And maybe throw in an arched sign similar to this one!

And maybe something else German in Oktoberfest.

I will settle for some German food and entertainment in the Festhaus. A new German themed flat would also be a welcome addition.

what about Action Zone, and oktoberfest combine one land more rides add a couple flats.

All themed to one area.

I'd like to see them dismantle SoB to prepare for future expansion ;)

Another thing that would be welcome is a total rehab (for the 2nd time in its life) of Adventure Express' theme and a demo of the FUN box.

I still think that Flight Deck needs some lovin', even though it got some a couple of years ago.

I doubt it will get it get because of all the focus on SoB this off season.

I really doubt we'll see much in the way of humongo things this offseason. I think Son of Beast is our gift for this upcoming season.
