    Southern Star Carowinds

    It has been rumored that Southern Star at Carowinds could be rebuilt at another location within the park, and from these photos the disassembled ride and vehicle can be seen in a staging area behind Hurler, looking in good condition and suggesting the ride will be relocated within the park or...

    Could Cedar Fair consider relocating Gold Striker from CGA? Where would you like to see it go?

    Wooden coasters have been relocated before, especially some very notable ones. The cost is a fraction of building a new one, so I find it plausible that CF would look to relocate this great coaster. I feel that wherever it could potentially go, it would instantly be the best or at least top 3 in...

    GCI likely building multiple new coasters with Cedar Fair through 2022-2025

    I recently reached out to Joyce Stablewski at GCI, and this is what she said. I asked her this: "Are you going to be working with Cedar Fair in the near future? If you are, what parks would you think you're working with?" I assumed I would get no response but I did. She said "We are always...

    Cedar Point 2020/2021

    First off, as a joke, at least I'm not starting my posts recently with "I've been told" lol ?.

    Geauga Lake/Six Flags Worlds of Adventure

    Recently hearing the news about Firehawk (formerly known as X-Flight at Geauga Lake) at King's Island shutting down, I decided to make this thread. Since Geauga Lake was my home park, I have many fond memories of the park. Sadly, by the time I was tall enough to ride most of the coasters, the...

    Zek's Cedar Fair East Coast trip//Day 1

    This trip really was one of my most anticipated trips I’ve ever been on! I’ve never been to either of these parks, and as you can see from my top 3, I really enjoyed both of these parks. Before I got to go though, I had to march in a parade for Memorial Day, drive from the Toledo, OH area and...

    I was rather surprised I couldn't find a thread on this (and if there is and I missed it just delete this) but I thought it might be fun to discuss some of the best color combinations for roller coasters out there. Personally I really think that Cedar Fair rules in this category, there newer...
