TeTe27 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Wasn't a big fan of the Crypt(mostly due to themeing) but this could be interesting....you can get a 2 for 1- thrill and water ride! 3 Quote
Tr0y Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 How about they let the eagles soar once again at Kings Island! <a href="http://s362.photobucket.com/user/x241/media/image-12.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo63/x241/image-12.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo image-12.jpg"/></a> i was fortunate enough today to ride them once again at kings dominion. 13 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Ours were moved to Carowinds, not Kings Dominion. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 The Eagles were moved to the then flagship park when Kings Island's former GM was moved there. 2 Quote
calakapepe Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 ^^^ to "make room for next year's attraction" (not an actual word-for-word quote) Kings Island definitely needs just one more flat ride - I would love a Screamin' Swing like Skyhawk at CP, maybe in place of The Crypt's building (is there enough room?). I would get rid of one haunt taking up a giant building for an awesome flat. If it could fit inside, it likely couldn't swing.-- I think the walkway between International Showplace, Diamondback, and Back Lot Stunt Coaster could use 2-3 flat rides.. It's empty. And then maybe we could get some smoothies once again from that abandoned vendor. Quote
XjoshhyX Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Yea KI can use a Ferris wheel, seeing CP's at night is like looking at a computer screensaver, maybe a skyhawk type ride. I think it would be a great idea for a Giant Wheel, especially with the ability to have a lot of color changes. Could look really neat at night in Action Zone. 3 Quote
elyk Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 ouch, that megaspin ride looks like a pain in the shoulder! i am personally not up for any carnival style rides except for the top scan, that is a pretty decent ride. huss fly away topple tower-if we can get it to work lol the Delirium prototype looks cool the tallest s&s screamin swing would be cool. 1 Quote

thunderbeast1968 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 This is my favorite flat ride of all time. I know this is not a coaster, but this is what my Uncle talked me into (forced) riding as a young child. Kings Island needs to buy one of these classic machines and put it at Coney Mall. 4 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 It would be nice for KI to get just one more classic midway ride. They are cheap and fun for families. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Thunderbeast1968: Bayern Curve. And KI had one. So did Cedar Point. 4 Quote
thunderbeast1968 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Thunderbeast1968: Bayern Curve. And KI had one. So did Cedar Point I know that, sorry that I didn't state that in my last post. You know, they could take out the WindSeeker thingy (doesn't work well anyway) and put the Bayern Kurve in it's place Quote

Or in front of the Festhouse by the Octoberfest lake! I've always been partial to light shows and lakes. Quote

calakapepe Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 I wish there was a flat that did what shake rattle and roll did... but without the upward tilting arms./// a flat that did what the scrambler did.. but with swinging bobs. 2 Quote

kirbias1 Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 The Huss ride "Jump" looks fun. Also, I don't know if a water slide qualifies as a "flat ride", but i think a water coaster like the one they have at Schlitterbahn would be a great addition to Soak City. Quote
upstop Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I vote this one! And it could be themed to this.... Quote

Great Advencha had a HUSS Jump. It was down far more than it was up. HUSS does not have the best reputation for reliability these days, as Dollywood recently learned. 3 Quote
Tr0y Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 It would be awesome if we got a huss enterprise... Have it painted red and silver with it being named cyclone. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 HUSS Enterprises are being removed right and left, most recently from Six Flags Over Georgia (Wheelie). Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I'm not too much of a fan seeing huss rides in the future. I love the rides themselves don't get me wrong...however replacement parts and maintenance are nightmares..if they fixed that side of their reliability that'd be awesome 3 Quote
thegajone Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Too bad Skylab and Flight Commander weren't more reliable. Those were 2 fantastic flats. 1 Quote
