tubaman Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I would love to see another woody, but they don't make wooden coasters like they use to. I.E. Mean Streak(opinion). So I think a steel coaster would be better. Or a one of a kind ride. Something that gets PKI in the record books, thats what I want to see. Quote

Check your history, buddy. Quote
familyman Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I am sticking to my guns and think a nick expansion with some new family and kiddy rides for 06. For 07 would be the Adams Family coaster. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I am sticking to my guns and think a nick expansion with some new family and kiddy rides for 06. For 07 would be the Adams Family coaster. I'd bet the world on you're 2006 prediction, but I have my doubts about the 07 expansion. Quote
CoasterXtreme Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 PKI holds the record for longest wooden coaster in the world with The Beast. Wouldn't it be nice to have the record for the longest steel coaster too! Just a thought! Quote
CoasterXtreme Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 so no one like my idea of the longest steel coaster...... Quote
Delirium13 Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I still think PKI should build a B & M Flying coaster themed to Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Quote
Reclaimer Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 The B&M Flyer themed to Sky Captain would be great Quote
Legend Rider Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 maybe not, um, look at the records first suspended coaster (Bat) first successful standup (KC) Longest Wood (Beast) Fastest Wooden Coaster at time (Beast) Tallest Wooden Coaster at time (Beast) Tallest Wood (SOB) Fastest Wood (SOB) Steepest Drop on Wood (SOB) tallest wooden structure (SOB) Only Looping Wood (SOB) first Intamin Gyro Drop (Drop Zone) First 6-Looping Coaster (Vortex) First Giant Top Spin (TRTR) First Giant Frisbee (Delirium) Just look, you might not see the record breakers for a while, there are quite a few at the park... ...I could ride Delirium for a while though. Lets see a cool new section of flats and thrills... Quote
TheKlockster Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 Dont forget - Vortex was the tallest and fastest coaster at one time too I believe. Quote
moore Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I think it would be really sweet if they added on to Action Zone and put a ton of flat rides, but that would be unlikely. What I really want is a nice ride like MF but not quite as tall. It would be neat if they put it where Top Gun is (but move the statoin forward BUNCHES) and make it weave in out of the trees and hills. It should have some REAL airtime too like Magnum. But not like a record breaker or anything, just a nice, yet big, enjoyable coaster. The only record I would want it to break would be the longest steel. That would be pretty neat, longest steel AND woody in one park. But, they most likely choice will be the nick expansion. Quote
pkifreak Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I would say they will probably do the nick central expansion. Quote
Great America Guy Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I agree, most likely a Nick Central Expansion/HB retheme. Maybe also a Giant Flat in Flight Commanders place? Quote
tubaman Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Check your history, buddy. I'm not stupid. Nor is it illegal to want another record breaker. The question was "But What Do YOU Want Them TO Build?" And I said what I want. I think you should re-read the question before accusing me of answering it. Geeze. Quote
jlopez Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I hope too see another water ride in 06, Something really cool and have some kind of theme to it. Maybe even a water coaster. jennifer Quote
CoasterXtreme Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 That is a good Idea......I still want the Longest steel coaster! Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Son of Beast isnt the steepest drop on a wooden coaster. Yea MF is by far one of the best roller coasters I have ever been on and it would be great if PKI could theme a coaster with something like MF. MF has the high capcity great drop and massive air time. So I am going to say I want a giga. Quote
thejoker8388 Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 ^MF dosen't have massive air time, in fact it has very very little air time. MF is all about speed, not air. If you want to feel air time on an intamin giga try Superman Ultimate Escape at Six Flags New England, that has air. But yes I would like to see an Intamin giga but I'd want it more like S:UE then MF. Quote

Its called Superman ride of steel. It is under 300' but taller than 200' thus making it a hyper. I agree the only airtime i get on MF is on the thrid hill and that little mound by the station on the return blows. Quote
KIBeast Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 "p.s. as far as adding to kitty land I would count on it." I did not know that PKI allowed you to bring in pets. Millennium Force has great air time on the second and third hills. Quote
Scooby_Doo Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 What would I like to see in 2006?.. The Addams Family,What do I think we will see? ..more Nick. Quote

I agree the only airtime i get on MF is on the thrid hill and that little mound by the station on the return blows. Yea I had the wrong name all the Supermans are confussing. And yes it is a hyper cause it's under 300' but I think I can see we agree that MF really dosen't have much airtime. All the air time is on Magnum. Quote
thejoker8388 Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Elitescr3, after the Preztel the rides practicaly over. The hill returning off the island gives a little air time and then the only other thing that there is is that tiny hill passing the station and that little thing probably has the best air of the whole ride. I don't know how MF can be considered to have "massive" air time when you have something like Magnum in the same park. MF only has a little more air then The Beast and thats saying something, cause Beast dosen't have air. Now I'm not saying I don't like MF cause I love MF just like Beast but come on neither of these rides have air and there not built to, they're built to feel out of control and feel fast which is what both of them are. Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 MF has quite a lot more air than The Beast. The big hill after the overbanked turn is almost all airtime. I guess it's depending when you ride it. During the summer when the ride is at its fastest and it books it over that hill it's got longer air than any one dip on Maggie. When I ride it in the fall months and the weather chills out I don't seem to get that same air though. Then there's the hill on the return, and then of course you've got that little bunnyhop at the end of the coaster which gives plenty. Sure it's no Maggie, and I'm not saying it gives "massive" air, but I think you're going a little overboard when you say it has little more than the airless Beast. Quote
thejoker8388 Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 ^Maybe it's just where you ride? I don't know but I never seem to get any air on MF. Is the back or front better because I'll have to try it again this summer to see if I can catch some of this air becuase I love air. Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 I usually stay near the back of the train, myself. The first ride I took was in the second car from the back and I believe that was the most air I'd ever gotten. It really does depend on the speed though. If the train you're on is slow, you'll just coast over that second hill after the tunnel like it's nothing and you'll get no air. I do agree though that I have had rides where there wasn't much airtime. But like I said, it was usually chilly out. And I'm sure age will slow the coaster down a bit and kill some of the air too.
