I'm hoping a little of both, like quick lines but then a little dining area, like at a real camp. Have to wait and see i suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is definitely a win for opening weekend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Snoopy's Soapbox Racers has started testing! Imo I think it is very likely we may see this thing open around the time of the ACE Spring Conference in May! Maybe the weekend before? Hoping that is the case! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 ^It makes it up the spike pretty high for being loaded only with water dummies. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeastFarmer Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 For 600 some odd feet of track, it looks like a bigger ride. (Yes, I know this is all boomerangs) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormChaser97 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 So I’ve watched videos of both SSBR and Good Gravy! now and I have to say, SSBR looks like a much more intense ride. I thought these would have very similar intensity levels but the custom layout Holiday World ordered looks intentionally designed to be a bit milder. SSBR has quite a bit of whip and kick to it. I think it’ll be a great time! Def enjoy the theming and execution of Good Gravy’s rollout a lot more though haha I’m also just now noticing that the spike on Good Gravy doesn’t have the double up-double down element that we get on SSBR. I am curious if that hump will give a decent little pop of air since it makes it up the spike quite further than I was expecting. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver2005 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I kind of hope this coaster helps to add more step up rides/coasters to the park. I really like Cedar Point's ride selection due to that reason, they have a lot of coasters that aren't necessarily big or intense, but still fun like Iron Dragon, Corkscrew, CCMR, Gemini and Blue Streak. I've always wanted a ride like Jaguar at KBF where its kind of an intermediate coaster that just meanders through the park with lots of path interaction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The park must be disappointed that the two biggest contributors to KI web traffic didn't get their invites. Hopefully they can get that resolved before the next time. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Here are some quick Camp Snoopy picture update. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
befat Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Here’s a quick review of Camp Snoopy from yesterday. We rode Woodstock’s Air Rail and quickly moved on to Adventure Express so this is centered around what I could see from that queue line. The good: Woodstock’s Air Rail’s paint job looks fantastic! It’s my favorite color scheme that this coaster has had. The station and fencing has been painted as well and had been the same since the Reptar days. The ride signage has been updated with a Camp Snoopy theme. The photo booth for Snoopy’s Soap Box Racers provides a nice near miss element on Woodstock’s Air Rail. Love the yellow train. The new paint jobs on the Camp Snoopy flat rides look good from what I could see from afar. The ride signage here has also been updated. The new paint job on the log flume station looks great! It had been the same since the Wild Thornberries days. The not so good: The sign for Woodstock’s Air Rail is tiny. We went from a giant 3D Reptar to a small circular sign over the years. The walkway between Woodstock’s Air Rail and Linus Launcher still has a purple fence and a Planet Snoopy sign. Hopefully this will change before the park opens for weekdays. Just a note: Pig Pen’s Mess Hall looks very small. I wonder what the menu will be. It looks to be a replacement for the cotton candy shop that Snoopy’s Soap Box Racers took the place of. And that location was already made redundant when the Snack Shack was added when Kite Eating Tree opened (as Plankton’s Plunge). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brenthodge Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Hopefully they can clean up some of the paving "confusion". There's old concrete, new concrete, orange concrete, white concrete, stamped concrete, you name it all going on and thats just in the area of log ride/ Linus ride. This will hopefully bring an area of the park all together into a themed whole, or it will create a mess of conflicting themes and ideas all living next to each other. I know its not done yet, but its heading into the "mish mash of themes" direction. I wish they took the chance to really make this new area feel more like an extension of RiverTown, and hopefully that's the plan. I'm still not sure why the also didn't take the opportunity to retheme Space Buggies to off-road 4 wheeler or relocate them in Planet Snoopy and bring in another small new flat to that pad so that entire area with Franklins Fliers and Kite Tree could all be a "gateway" to the camp area. Its just a lot of ideas all running together right now 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I thought it was a little funny seeing these Planet Snoopy signs still up along the new path. Not exactly a big deal, and may still be addressed, but I do hope these get rethemed and painted as well. No reason to not repurpose them somehow. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just a lot of ideas all running together right now I think they should have honestly just bulldozed all the concrete and started from scratch with pavers or at least fresh concrete for the whole area. The pavement doesn’t seem very cohesive as it is currently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a mess of patches, fixes, planters covered over, themed spots added etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There IS new stained concrete at the entrance to the area, but then the rest of the area is currently a mess of old concrete, new concrete, and orange concrete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion-XL200 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Maybe he meant that it'll be stained from the soda, ice cream, etc. spilled on the concrete since they won't run the water truck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! That will give it that “rustic kids camp” look in no time. There’s truly no substitute for authenticity! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
