Kings Island needs a better flat line up indeed, Drop Tower is about it for me. Delirium is fun and relaxing but I don't really both with anything else.

A fan crossing his fingers for a S&S Scream'n swing.

When kk opens they will have a better flat ride arsenal than ki IMO.

Then go there and enjoy.

Ya know for the size of that "flying coaster" thing, it actually looks pretty fun.

Kings Island really needs a ferries wheel

What they need to do is bring back the Zodiac.

I'll disagree, Zodiac was horrible,in my opinion. And with todays requirements for evac, would be pert near impossible.

What was Zodiac?

No idea why it double posted.

Ones I would like to see added are something like Skyhawk over in X-Base. Would fit great as a pilot training exercise.

Where Crypt is maybe keep teh building but theme to a mine to fit the area and put in a new top spin, top scan, or sledgehammer.

Der SPinning Kegger brought back to the Oktoberfest area.

Some general rides in the Starlight Spectacular area as others have said. It's just so bare and looks tacky, especailly at night with half of it not working. Could put some classic flats tehre like a tilt-a-whirl and Flying Eagles.

As for capacity, there are many falt rides that can get good capacity on them. Skyhawk can get 800/hr. Delirium and WindSeeker get 1000. So slightly under most of teh coasters but not by too much. FoF only gets 1200. They can't load until the ride cycle is done but since they can hold 50 to 60 people on them they can keep up pretty well.

purdude86. Wow... if KI were to get what you suggested, that'd be awesome. We'd have an amazing arsenal of flats.

You just triple posted NoChickens...

And they would somehow figure it out.

maybe 2015 will be the year of the flats!

Perhaps Huss is currently developing a Giant Giant Slide...

I would love to have a giant wheel. I wouldn't mind seeing it go in Action Zone somewhere since there really isn't any observation kinda ride on that side of the park.

^ Those are by far the scariest ferris wheels.

Ah, yes.

Two things:

The guard cages mounted atop the cars--those are retrofits. They were not originally part of the ride. The restraints were also modified over the years. Originally there was only a single latching straight stick...and it could be opened easily by the riders...who would never even think of such a thing back then.

And, like nearly everything else flatwise, these wheels used to operate much, much faster than the one in the video. Many years ago, Camden Park had a Ferris Wheel like that one, back by the women's restroom. It was wicked fast. So was the load\unload...one did not tarry, or one got yelled at, at best.

We have something similar to that at the county fair.

Just imagine how many times a fair ride has been assembled and unassembled. Then there's making sure the ride is firmly mounted.

Add in the ever-changing carny help. Not just ride ops/games/foods, but even maintenance. Road life is hard.

Indeed, fair rides can be very...thrilling.

Thrilling in a way where you're happy to have both feet on the ground after a ride? I agree.

I didn't say I ride it, I just said we had one,

Carny rides are not for me.

One year, the amusement company for our county fair brought an Astro Wheel to the fair. A couple of weeks before the actual fair was to begin, I was driving to a town about 20 miles away, which was incidentally the direction that the fair rides were coming from. I noticed something odd in the ditch on the way and decided to take a slow drive past it on the return trip. On the way back, there it was....a ride car from the Astro Wheel was lying in the ditch.

Later on, I was walking through the county fair grounds prior to the fair and was looking at the assembled Astro Wheel, trying to figure out which car was the one I saw when, from somewhere near the top, a bolt fell out and proceeded to ping and ding along the structure until it landed on the loading deck.

Needless to say, I averted from riding that ride!

How about a Disco, very popular in Koria. I was on one in Japan.

For some reason, I call those Tortilla Bowls. I love to watch videos of them, I think inwardly it's to feel superior and think to myself, "Stupid people." They toss and fall allover! It's like a Tumblebug on bath salts.

I wouldn't mind seeing something like this in Coney Mall

I would take out Delirium and put in an inverted, taller, and faster Avatar or Surf Dog ride.

Or replace WindSeeker with a Witches Wheel.

had my first kiss inside the Lost River. that was a long time ago!

I'd like to see a large Round Up like the one at Coney Island. Fast, dizzying and surprisingly forceful.

I want to see some crazy, relentless, and snappable flying scooters!

Oh wait, I can.

But only if I go to Stricker's.

Better yet at Carowinds.

Some prefer Knoebel's Grove Amusement Resort's set.

I do not.
