Let me rephrase that. I feel it wouldn’t be worth the resources. Granted they are doing it for CW, but that’s just one. Having them make and post a poster for every new addition in the chain seems like a waste of not just money but also time to design them that could be spent doing other things...

I was just there last week and there was no sign of construction anywhere. Trust me, we all know I’d have an aneurism if my home park got an RMC but I doubt it. RMC likes to get to work early and there’s been nothing to suggest that they’re getting anything major next year. Fred Grubb was there...

Just a little something to add here, I believe they started out because trolley companies were used primarily for weekday commuters and they wanted some business on the weekends, hence why they would build these at the ends of their lines. So they could rake in profit not only from the park...

If it’s fake it sure is convincing but looking at it again, I could see how it could be NoLimits. A very good NoLimits job, but fam made nonetheless. Can a mod lock this thread? That was stupid and I shouldn’t have posted it.

We have a leak and it looks very legit! Cedar Point's Boardwalk area will be getting the Knott's Berry Farm treatment for next year! Looks like we have a Mack large park wild mouse called Cutback, a Zamperla demolition derby, a Zamperla hawk, a new eatery, and a new queue for Wicked Twister...

https://www.visitmysmokies.com/blog/pigeon-forge/attractions-pigeon-forge/dollywood-wildwood-grove-expansion/ Well we have a name, folks! Looks like this new family/kiddie area will be called Wildwood Grove. It will be announced August 3rd via live stream at 11 am. Sounds like this could be a...

Either of those would be good for the park to be honest, though I’d lean towards the GCI not just as an enthusiast but because SFFT has a log flume but no GCI. It’s the only SeaWorld I’ve done and while the experience isn’t exactly offensive per se, it could certainly be improved. They’re...

I love how IMAScore can produce possibly the most annoying track ever and somehow it’s still catchy and awesome, it’s already stuck in my head haha. Can we now observe a moment of silence for the ride ops that have to listen to that for hours on end?

Scroll to the bottom if you aren't familiar with it. https://www.skylineattractions.com/?p=rides&i=skywarp Glad to see these popping up! It looks like the most innovative of the three layouts they have for it in terms of creativity, and perfect for parks like this. Wonder if we'll see them pop...

I have several! Hydra: Wasn’t expecting much out of this when I rode it considering my other two floorlesses at the time were Rougarou and Scream but I really liked this. Interesting layout that plays with the hillside nicely and some fun air pops here and there. Great White NJ: By far the...

Title says it all. Riding a ride in its opening season is great in itself, but how many coasters have you ridden before they even had their official public opening? The ones you got on before the date the park advertised as the ride’s first day open for any park guest to come ride. Which did you...

Girl at BGT: Mommy I want to go on THAT!!! *points at Scorpion* Mommy: Oh no, sweetie, you break your neck on those things. Guy on SFMM Gold Rusher with his girlfriend: Did you know this was the first roller coaster ever? Facebook, however, has taken ignorant comments to a whole new level...

Overrated: Intimidator 305, Phoenix, Boulder Dash, X2, El Toro Underrated: Iron Rattler, Hades 360, Switchback, Twisted Cyclone, TFAP Avalanche, Whizzer, El Loco Vegas, Powder Keg, Ride of Steel, Cheetah Hunt

Slightly off topic but this is a great point if we’re talking about safety. Has there been any significant case in the past of someone going to jail for doing something dangerous on a ride? Like not a Verrukt type thing but as a guest?

http://www.sanduskyregister.com/story/201807230034 Fun week for Steel Vengeance, some stupid punk threw a packet of hot sauce at an oncoming train and it popped and splashed several people in the eye. First aid had to assist them, flushed a woman’s eyes out and everything. Charged with...

I see it fine but if anyone else can’t... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is correct, it doesn't look like old Arrow track. Here it is, classic Arrow looper in every sense of it. Notice how the side friction wheels sit on the inside of the track between the rails. You'll notice that each tie goes out past the width of the rail, up, and then back in to hold...

I wouldn’t lump Merlin in with the rest because if I’m remembering right, it just took a while to get built for some reason, it’s not like it was sitting around SBNO forever because of some horrific mechanical problem like the others on the list. Not an insider but that sounds more like a...

Didn’t know they had issues with another one in China and a few Google searches didn’t bring anything up. Anymore info on this? The only issues S&S has had that I would consider serious are Gale Force, Twist Coaster Robin, and Green Lantern spitting a wheel out. Now I never rode any of these...

I consider it the most overrated steel coaster out there. For such a large innovative ride it seems to fail to do certain things that should be pretty textbook for a ride of its tech level. Now, it's an amazing machine. The positives on it are nuts and the fact that it can manage to pound you...
