IAAPA 2021
- Thread starter Lori Marie Loud
- Start date
At first I read that fourth paragraph as "The addition of ArieForce One is a HUGE mistake for our company ..." and wondered what kind of internal memo had now been leaked.
I had to double-take in the first paragraph - reads as if it was going to Orlando (noting the curious add of “Orlando’s only Family-Owned theme park”).

I really do like these. They look fun.
Two things don't like that much: Single row trains. I understand the gimmick. But in most parks this results in huge lines. I guess, the RMC's are doing well, so could these.
And a racing theme. Would've liked to see something different. Understand the parks can come up with their own themes.
With an element like the Wall-Ride-dive and Wave-turn-hill. I would've gone for a surf or skateboard theme in the presentation video.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Intamin is trying to sell these coasters to race tracks? All the car and race theming seems weird.

I don’t think the actual ride itself is for Daniel’s Wood Land, it looks like they’re just doing the theming for it.
