IndyGuy4KI Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Now that Xtreme Skyflyer is no more, what do you think will end up in it's place? Here is the photos I look on Pass Holder Preview. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodVengeance Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Looks like there's a survey flag in the fourth photo. Could this fit the bill for a family thrill attraction? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaFlyer Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 My guess is a Zamperla wild mouse. While I’d love a Screamin’ Swing, it doesn’t really make sense to put it right next to another forceful pendulum ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 100% agree! I think it would be perfect for that plot of land. I can picture it just towering over the back half of Action Zone as you walk in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losantiville Mining Co. Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I think either a Wild Mouse or a thrilling flat ride could go there, but I don't think we'll see its replacement until after next year. The timing of its demolition seems to line up more with the last of the forced ride removals than the planned ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbias1 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I would love a Screamin Swing but According to Tower Topics, Zamperla is already on Mason notice of commencement, so S&S is probably out at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timing of its demolition seems to line up more with the last of the forced ride removals than the planned ones. It could still be possible. Looking at an older video from Amusement Insiders, Canada's Wonderland's Xtreme Skyflyer was removed in early March 2024, while ours was removed around mid-late March. Mind you, theirs was removed because of a major coaster that was going to be built for the following year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodVengeance Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 It would be interesting to see a Zamperla Wild Mouse themed to Bavarian Beetle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That NOC was filed last fall and had nothing to do with 2026. It was "labeled 2024 and 2025 additions and modifications" for example the one filed in 2018 for what became Orion was "2018, 2019, and 2020 additions and modifications" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(like B&M and GCI) Zamperla could've been on there because of Cargo Loco and Sol Spin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonahWilliamson Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Flat ride sounds like a "thrilling family addition" I just want that next coaster so bad and it better have inversions I just cannot believe for the life of me why they would add another flat ride in Action Zone. That grassy aera behind the outdoor theater behind Diamondback would be so cool to see a new flat there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robintodd Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 So seeing this section today I also noticed how much the area just needs an upgrade. A spinning coaster at that location for family's would be a nice complment to The Bat as a tween step. Also it may bring more people to that area and renew The Bat's ridership. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial79 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I think it could be the family thrill addition they were teasing about last year, I'm guessing a coaster, but we'll see, we have plenty of time still to see if they're going to continue working on this area,, if they do that is a sign for something to come here in 2026, and seeing a flag is already in place, it's pointing to it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoodVengeance Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I made this quick concept for a Zamperla spinning coaster akin to Wild Mouse at Cedar Point for the Xtreme Skyflyer plot. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already have the coasters gift shop there. Banshee gift shop was turned into an arcade. Mystic Timbers has no gift shop, nor does Onion or The Beast ( pop up market is more like it).

The shop is already there so why not have it exit through Coaster Connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodVengeance Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Valravn was the last Cedar Fair coaster to exit through a gift shop. I was thinking they already have Coaster Connections as a gift shop, so they could just have merch for the new ride in there as well as the Emporium on International Street.

Technically I think Yukon Striker does. Rapterra exits through a gift shop and so will AlpenFury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense to use existing infrastructure and they could have the photo booth there as well. And it could bring a much needed cosmetic boost to that building. However, a wild mouse is a minor coaster, so I don't think they would put much effort into it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJSkyFoxx Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I'm in the camp of no spinning coasters please. I do not do super spiny stuff. And for me personally, I realize I do not speak for the trees, but as a longtime fan of Xtreme Skyflyer, I would really hate to see it replaced with something I simply cannot ride. A Screamin' Swing would be ideal as I love those things like most of you, but by the sounds of it that may not be what goes there. I will again say I just hope that whatever takes place there will be something worthy of that plot. I have a lot of great memories with Xtreme Skyflyer and I am hoping to be able to make many more there. I will also say that I would rather see the "family thrill attraction" go in that plot vs Vortex's. That land is sacred ground 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlentless Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I got the opportunity to a preview day to Universal's Epic Universe on Thursday, April 17th . . the new park and all 5 sections are great. But I would love to see a Mack like the Stardust Racers either in either Action Zone or The Vortex spot. It's an amazing ride and I easily put it up there to VelociCoaster as far as intensity but would say it has more airtime. You could almost flip a coin to which you think is better. Stardust Racers is a great ride and would immediately be a fan favorite at KI. Not sure if KI can budget a duel coaster, but it is a people eater with 2 trains going on both sides. Love it . . hope we can get Mack like this one since it seems we'll never get an Intamin. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver8rws Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Weeds will replace it I imagine. At least for a while. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
