Xx2cansamxX Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 I voted Intamin. Not only did they invent the best coaster ever, the tracks look cool (no backbone; square) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantStopCabron Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 I voted B&M. Intamins are nice and all, and give a great ride, but they pretty much suck in the area of customized layouts. Their rides are conformed to strict rules, where as B&M coasters seem to have a lot more freedom of what they can do. I feel B&M fits better with PKI.

Beastfreak Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 B&M!! That way I can watch the track be made. And have better updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxD3LIRIUMxx Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I put Vekoma. I love their boomerangs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I think Vekoma boomerangs are about the only Vekoma coaster people can enjoy. I vote B&M... even though I wouldn't mind Intamin. You can't beat their Swiss engineering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhiocoasteR Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I think Vekoma boomerangs are about the only Vekoma coaster people can enjoy. Blasphemy! If you're refering to the Inverted Boomerangs, or the Giant Inverted Boomerangs, then I can half-heartedly join you. If you're refering to the regular, dime-a-dozen 1970's sitdown boomerangs, then I can not join you. However, their flying coasters (X-Flight) are pretty smooth. I don't know how that'll be in a few years, given history tends to repeat itself. And besides. Who cares about Holland? -- Myself, I wouldn't want another Vekoma in Kings Island. An Arrow would be nice, it's too bad that they got bought out by S&S, who is currently taking a break developing a new arsenal of rides, so we can rule the S&S/Arrow/CCI (rip). The B&M Window for 2004 is probably closed, given that for a custom layout, you'd need to do tree clearing, and Walter is such a perfectionist, it wouldn't happen. An Intamin would be nice, but they're currently having a love affair with Cedar Point. Premier? Eh. Chance-Morgan? Yeah, an Arrow Clone might be a good idea.. if only they cloned other ride types then those from the 70's/80's. Meh. -- In all reality, if we were to get a coaster for next year (which in my mind is doubtful), the most likely would be an Intamin or a B&M. Both have high price tags, and since Delerium and Scooby probably set us back, I'm giving it another year for a coaster. That's my two cents.

skatefanjeff Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I voted Intamin. They give rides that are smooth as glass. They also have the top three rated steel coasters which are expedtion ge-force, superman: ROS (the one at six flags new england) and of course Millennium Force. The only things about intamin they have problems after they are built, the superman ride at sfne is running to fast, so they have to run some trains with up to six seats empty. They still have realiable rides though, like millennium force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantStopCabron Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Delirium and Scooby cost pretty much nothing compared to a major steel coaster. Trust me, it didn't set them back. Anyways, it's not like PKI has their own reserve of money, they get it from the Vekoma corp. So it's not like just because we got something big (in your opinion) would stop them from making a coaster. Vekoma owns a lot, and are not in a jam for money, so it's not the issue here. The issue is if they want to pay attention to us this year or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Woo hoo I am the only person voting for Premire rides! I like B&M and Intamin but I love rides made by Premire (Flight of Fear, Mr. Freeze, Batman and Robin The Chiller). I would love to see a nice outdoors LIM at PKI, possibly a terrain coaster but I like Primire's compact designs by Werner Stengel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiSK Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 I believe this one is one sided. Its obvious to a lot of people that PKI needs a B&M Coaster. They are one of the most popular in the world. Although I do agree with what a lot of you are saying about other ride manufactures, a B&M would suit PKI the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt3224 Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 We should get a B&M. Every other park seems to have one so we need to get something from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenGhost2003 Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 i would like to see PKI with a B&M....but i dont think we will see a coaster until 2005! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
