westcoaster Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Surely no wing coaster close within drive time of Kings Island or Cedar Point. Just thinking more unique for each park, more some may go to more than 1 park. Like when Kings Island had a nice Australian themed water park? but I may want to go with my family to snoopy land in the Dominion due to how nice they did it, some rides are different: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Possibly completely unrelated, but from the park's twitter: We'll have some exciting park news to share this afternoon at 4pm on our Facebook page Thought I'd share anyways. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdawg1998 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Yeah, it's probably not related to this. Way too early. Maybe this is part of the plans Don was "diving" in on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldschool75 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 More than likely news of news to come. Probably to say something is coming, and find out at the big announcement on so and so day. Just my guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Sexy Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I have no idea why anyone would want a forceless b&M looper. Lift, drop, vertical loop, dive loop, zero g, cobra roll, interlocking cork screws. The standard floorless b&m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpSonofBeast Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 No camping? That's a very weird thing to say. Maybe it's a Call of Duty roller coaster sorry gamer side coming out again...No camping and the screaming it talks about on the other sign? I feel like it is a ghost related ride named Banshee. I don't have any guess on what kind of coaster it will be but i wouldn't mind something like the smiler 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustbucket Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Wing Coasters are even less forceful than floorless coasters. I have benn on Wild Eagle, X-flight and Gatekeeper. They really do not have much intensity. Afterburn or Talon are way more forceful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Sexy Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 anything built on a larger scale will be more forceless. WIth a giga/strata you have the drop or the launch and that's it. Look at how forceful BTR's are and they are barely a 100'. Goliath at SFOG is more forceful than Diamondback. Alpengeist at BGW is the or one of the tallest fastest inverts and it sucks.

fanofFirehawk Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 We all seemed pretty confident on the "mustang" title for the B&M looming over river town. They really fooled us all, I don't think it'll be so easily to guess the name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Chicken Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Sweet! Mustang?!?! That's a good name for a coaster. As, for 2014 I still think it's going to be themed around a paranormal occurrence.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screaming_Chicken Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 LOL! I miss Yogi Bear, Fred Flintstone and Scooby-Doo at the park. I miss Scooby-Doo and The Haunted Castle..

But did we guess "Diamondback"? They are great at misleading you. I don't know, but I would hope they would take the time to really set this up. Not just use a name that was just happening to be laying around, and spent the extra few bucks to make it perfect. Purchasing the copyrights for a name wouldn't be a major issue. Still assuming it is a roller coaster, I mean I am. But most likely this project, what ever it is, it'll have a substantial price tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Ask yourself. "I were in charge of all Cedar Fair properties would I put a wing coaster in a park that close to the one I just installed" I would think they would want to have a different experience at these two parks so they can attract people to both parks. Not one or the other. Yet, there are many seeking the wind at relatively close proximities! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOBwasaSOB Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 First of all while Mountain Dew is the nectar of the Gods Coke is way better than Pepsi. Secondly Off topic discussion in this forumn, like BBi said, is simply us passing time before the ball drops (that was well said). I personally belive that this will be a giga with a different layount than DB to keep it fresh as these new guys in chare are more coaster oriented. Second most likely is dive to me but I have super few posts and only a gut feeling and tiny bit of evidence to go on so take it with a grain of salt. I will drink my adult beverage and read this thread every night for entertainment.Just out of curiosity, who is BBi? I know this really great guy named BB1 but not BBi. Meanwhile, I will not share my final hypothesis yet, but this topic may break the barrier soon.... After I go out on a limb and back you up you attack me like this!....I kid I kid I meant BB1 haha sorry. Someone also brought up a good point (I believe it was the one they refer to as "Terp") I had forgotten about Kinzel's departure somehow but like he said CF will still always make better coasters than Paramount. I do wish that CF could combine their coaster skills with some theming like Paramount had. I know this is not an original idea and I also realize that I am asking for quite a bit but a man can dream.

JWAddington Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 My head will spin, like little Regans in the Exorcist, i might even throw up too, if Cedar Fair builds a Wing Rider at Kings Island! Maybe 5-10yrs from now, but not 1yr out from Gatekeeper. Give me a different experience from something CP doesnt have! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
