Get ready to defy gravity on Kings Dominion’s new ride, Delirium. The thrill ride will be located in the Candy Apple Grove section of the park and is set to open in the spring of 2016.

Delirium is a powerful, spinning pendulum on which 40 riders will be strapped into their seats, facing outward on a giant ring. As their feet dangle, they begin slowly swinging back and forth while the ring starts to rotate. The ride quickly gains momentum and before they know it, riders are getting swirling views of the park. On Delirium, guests soar to a height of 115 feet at a maximum arc angle of 120 degrees.

Delirium will delight thrill seekers of all ages as they fly through the air, experiencing gravity defying hang time.

“Thrills come in all different sizes here at Kings Dominion and the addition of Delirium reflects our commitment to providing exciting experiences for our guests,” says Pat Jones, Vice President and General Manager of Kings Dominion. “We pride ourselves on being home to a variety of rides and attractions that offer something for all generations to enjoy. Delirium will make a great addition to our park.”

Guests who want to be among the first to experience Kings Dominion’s newest addition can purchase a 2016 Kings Dominion Season Pass starting today at the lowest price of the year. Gold Passes are available for just 9 easy payments of $9.75. Passholders enjoy many benefits, including: Bring-A-Friend discounts, food and merchandise discounts, early access to select rides and Kings Dominion’s all-inclusive water park, Soak City.

Construction on Delirium is set to begin in the fall.

Interesting, swinging pendulum/frisbee ride, named Delirium is replacing a Togo stand-up roller coaster. Where have we seen that before?

 

 

 

 

Edit: Sorry, just saw this was already being discussed here.

Per the seat count this is not a Huss. It's probably a Zamperla, good choice, I'd say.

It's a Mondial Revolution.

Holy 2002, Batman!

 

 

Also, I love me some video renderings, but I also am liking the artwork styles they've had for this year and next year's announcements.

Now, where'd I put that cookie cutter?

 

Kings Dominion began as a near clone of Kings Island.

Can we have a Volcano: The Blast Coaster, please?

There's tradition to uphold.

That would be glorious. Bye-bye Dinosaurs Alive [emoji14]

A giant... deciduous forested volcano? Works for me.

Unfortunately, Volcano The Blast Coaster is Intamin AG... and I havent seen their products being purchased by Cedair Fair in a hot minute.

If Flying Scooters can be moved, and even Changs...

The coaster, sure.

But the mountain?

That one was made. Another can be.

Park designers can make an entire mountain?

 

That's a Wonder to me.

They can even put Thunder Run inside it.

Well, we know that B&M will do launches on their rides now, maybe a B&M Volcano style ride?

And we also know from Hydra and Banshee that B&M is willing to build annoyingly slow inline twists, so it seems perfect to me...

And The Great Bear. How I do love that thing.

I'm wearing my Great Bear shirt right now for Casual Friday! In fact, I've worn mostly coaster shirts on Casual Fridays

And I'm wearing a button down, tie and khakis.

On casual Friday.

I'm a rebel that way.

And before someone asks, shoes, socks and underwear, too.

I'm proudly wearing my school colors, as I do every casual Friday.

Thunderbird does the very same thing at the end of the ride, but I honestly think that slow roll/hanging feeling is pretty cool.  Thats one of my favorite parts of riding row 1 on Banshee.

Slow inversions are the best inversions and I would love to have a ride like Volcano at KI

Eh... Glad you like them. I'm not a fan. Fortunately, in Banshee's case, it has so many other elements I love that I can overlook it.

It's certainly what I would call the most surprising part of Banshee. You don't really understand how slow it's going until you feel it.

You should head over to Canada's Wonderland and see for yourself. Pun intended.

Don't you mean Fun Intended?

KD's Delirium has a very different feel to it. I'm glad ours feels more bold with the literal and visual sense.

Anyone know what manufacturer Cedar Fair went through for this ride? It's definitely smaller.

Mondial Revolution...
