    Six Flags Qiddiya | Saudi Arabia | Theme Park

    Correcto - My honest fascination would be, should there ever be a valley or stall of the train at that top element... how LONG would response time to be get maintenance on-site? 😅

    Six Flags / Cedar Fair Merger Announced

    I'd imagine established heads are safe, especially for North America's first and second largest seasonal parks by attendance.

    Six Flags / Cedar Fair Merger Announced

    Taking a look at the postings, it's hardly a true extension beyond what already exists. Merging Six Flags America and Kings Dominion? Easy maneuver as it's a trick question - SFA is actually not marketable at all! ;)

    Cedar Point | Siren's Curse | Vekoma Tilt Coaster | 2025

    As much as we've corroborated from hearsay (and plenty of unconfirmed rumor), Intamin was approached in the TT2 bidding process, and: A. possibly bid an entirely different project concept (e.g. replacing existing hydraulic launch) B. probably came in at higher cost than Zamperla. For whatever...

    Cedar Point | Siren's Curse | Vekoma Tilt Coaster | 2025

    I think you might be reading a bit too much into the tea leaves - Siren's Curse would be very easy to open next year, even if as a delayed start. For TT2, if it isn't to open next year... it really begs the question if it would ever reopen, given a 1.5-2 year closure that has already given ample...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Hah yeah I mean, imagine how EMBARRASSING that would be to open a ride thematic feature seven months late. What's worse, not opening the ride at all? Like who does that!!?? Returns to the corner of the room to sob into a pillow

    Weird, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

    They were testing some structural design ahead of the LA Olympics. :P

    Has a coaster ever had to be rebuilt because of a hurricane?

    On SFNO, also worth noting Batman was relocated to SFFT (Goliath) and Road Runner Express to SFMM. Both coasters were sitting, submersed in water, for weeks on end, which completely ruined all electronic and control systems. Both structures though were seen as in tact to merit the relocation.

    Six Flags New England | Quantum Accelerator | Intamin Family Multi Launch Coaster | 2025

    You like Intamin, you hate Zamperla, WE GET IT. 😜 Totally forgot about this ride - likewise will be interested in how "family" this coaster will actually be. Fingers crossed for Firechaser Express vibes.

    Six Flags Great Adventure | Flash: Vertical Velocity | Vekoma Super Boomerang | 2025

    Aw shucks, saw an update posted in here, and was hoping it was being redirected to Cedar Point as "New for 2026!"

    Last Cred Review

    To keep to the spirit of Last Cred Review, in the singular. ;) Joker at Six Flags Great America. A friendly reminder that you can both laugh, scream, cry, experience existential dread, question the reason of "Why Life?", and give up religion all within one ride!

    Kingda Ka and Green Lantern's removal for new 2026 record-breaking coaster

    Was just chatting about this in another convo - my honest wager would be, whenever the time comes for KK's launch system (because it will be the launch system, RIP Formula Rossa) to be retired, Six Flags make the same gambit as Top Thrill and modify as a swing launch LSM system. With some...

    Cedar Point | Siren's Curse | Vekoma Tilt Coaster | 2025

    TBH, with such a compact layout, it may not be as late as you think. Track construction often doesn't go vertical until the off-season, for instance.

    Cedar Point | Siren's Curse | Vekoma Tilt Coaster | 2025

    First, new off-ride rendering: Second, upon further thought, and to echo @TPoseOnTantrum's sentiment - why is Cedar Point getting a tilt coaster!? Plugging the open plot of Wildcat's land after years of sitting idle I understand; further rumor mill suggests this or another coaster was in the...

    Cedar Point to close Snake River Falls

    I’ll merge and move appropriate posts to the new Vekoma construction thread. Thanks for starting the new thread!
