    Rumour of Kingda Ka's removal

    So if it gets a TT2-esque treatment and doesn't get fully demolished does that not still mean that in essence Ka as it stands is going away in any case? I imagine people would've been doing these goodbye rounds to TTD too if it hadn't been SBNO for like a year before they announced they'd be...

    Rumour of Kingda Ka's removal

    ^ Does anybody actually like Superman anymore though? It barely goes up the tower at all and the launch isn't enough to be a selling point. They could even keep the drop tower on that unlike Zumanjaro, since Dreamworld did that in Australia. ^^ One of the trains was completely dismantled a...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    ^ They probably spent ungodly amounts (at least relative to their revenue) of money on developing the coaster type hence why they're constantly trying to come up with new gimmicks and ways to sell it to parks. But hey, at least the cruise ships are buying em. And Qiddiya.

    La Vibora (SFOT) closure

    I loved Bob when that was at Efteling but I understand these are a pain to maintain, I'll just miss this ride style as I despise the Mack bobsleds. Maybe Flying Turns is the shining ray of light in that style of ride if I ever get to ride that.

    ^ Jesus christ, that is deranged to say the least. If you really have to terrorize somebody to take out your anger why the innocent public and not the company?

    ^ I guess I missed that part but now I'm even more confused because what do you mean "easy to pronounce" what has to be your mother tongue for you to possibly gather that "yoy" is pronounced as the english word "joy"? I mean. Sure.

    So, how do you pronounce YoY anyway? I know some bit about how Dutch is pronounced but can't fathom how this is pronounced besides maybe "ei o ei" if it's letter by letter.

    Where is your local park and how often do you visit?

    First year with a season pass final report; Season pass cost me 299€, I went 45 times which means I got a 2295€ worth out of it. Deal of the century, honestly.

    Fantasiana | Helios | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

    Not watching through the whole thing but judging by the start and one of the top replies to the pinned comment it seems like it's basically because they can't get spares for the drive tires (so they're just way too worn to be useful unless conditions are perfect) from PAX be it because they...

    Fantasiana | Helios | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

    Doesn't run in the rain, explicitly stated? What kinda wicked witch of the west roller coaster is this thing

    I genuinely thought they had one of these kontiki/rocking tug rides already

    Efteling | Spookslot Replacement | Intamin Dynamic Motion Stage | 2024

    ^ I love how they zoomed in on the nipple of the statue, very important detail. I'm just astonished by the size of the structure and the ride system, frankly.

    New ride/roller coaster coming to Särkänniemi amusement park? 2025? 2026?

    ^ It was also confirmed in local news that it's getting scrapped and the steel recycled. Nobody wanted to buy it. (shocker).

    Grona Lund to Expand for 2024?

    Ah, a family boomerang because having only one Vekoma family coaster with abysmal capacity wasn't enough. To be fair, it could lighten the load on Kvasten and maybe the lines would be manageable on both.

    Walibi Holland | YoY | RMC Raptor | 2025

    What's the Goliath problem? Anyway, I'd like to formally apologize to any park who's coaster namings I've made fun of. It seems despite the major drug smuggling port moving from Rotterdam to Antwerp, the Netherlands is still heavily on some stuff.

    Kings Dominion | Rapterra | B&M Launched Wing Coaster | 2025

    Obviously we're just too uncultured to realize their grand plan to have the first coaster themed after Blue Flash

    Hansa Park | "New and very big" attraction | 2025(?)

    ^ This post is where I learn Hansa Park has a log flume and flat rides there, lol. It is a bit off to the side and "behind" Kärnan so I'll forgive myself but it is kinda funny that I somehow managed to completely miss that area while there.

    Walibi Holland | YoY | RMC Raptor | 2025

    Colour/manufacturer wise absolutely, HOWEVER I think there's a comparison to be made between this and Battlestar Galactica, although both coasters are the same "style", it shares the dueling tracks but one is family and one is thrill aspect with that.

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

    I feel like the main gimmick kinda conflicts with Valravn's, but this is sure to be a better overall coaster than that and it's also great to see the chain's halo park getting a modern Vekoma and thus showing an example for other parks in the US to get Vekoma thrill coasters again.
