Diamondback_Is_King Posted December 9, 2024 Posted December 9, 2024 Who knows if that's actually true. They could be just getting a new one. On the other hand, it does make sense to get rid of it. Congo Falls is one of three water rides at KI, so they don't really need it for that purpose. It's also down a lot of the time, so it's not very operational friendly. And on top of that, I don't ever see a really long line for it, so I would assume that it's not the most popular ride among guests. I just hope that if they remove Congo Falls, they also remove Invertigo. Let's face it: Invertigo is rough, and not too many people actually come off saying, "let's ride again!". Taking out these two and replacing them would give KI a lot of room for a future attraction. You could have the ride sit right next to the parking lot and entrance and it would look pretty good for guests waking up to the park and getting excited.
BeeastFarmer Posted December 9, 2024 Posted December 9, 2024 If I remember correctly, the canvas "Congo" portion of the sign is removed each winter, similar to the removal of queue sunshades and famous Timberwolf curtains. 2
rlentless Posted December 9, 2024 Posted December 9, 2024 If they remove it we will be looking at an empty spot for next 3-5 years. Unless this is where the new 2026 family attraction will be located. I know most speculation is The Vortex spot. 2
DiamondbackFan Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago The page for Congo Falls is gone. https://www.sixflags.com/kingsisland/attractions/congo-falls 1
Imperial79 Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago Yep, I clicked on a few other rides and no pages are missing. Maybe this is a sign its end is near. 🤔
WoodVengeance Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Was anyone at the park today and saw Congo Falls running?
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted 5 hours ago Author Posted 5 hours ago I've been thinking and I'll say a ride like Rip Roarin Falls at Carowinds would fit well in the Congo Falls/Timberwolf plot. Give it a dark forest/wolf theme to go with a spooky/dark forest retheme of Action Zone.
disco2000 Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago When they post a sign at the entrance that it will not operate today, that usually means it is down for awhile....
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago Came up with a little sketch with how a Rip Roarin Falls style ride would work in the Congo Falls/Timberwolf area. Safe to say it would fit well there
