Scaparri Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 ^I will be working in the park that day. I can't wait to ride MaxAir though. I love Huss Giant Frisbees. They are easily my favorite flat rides. I just hope they run a program that is just as good, if not better, than Delirium's at PKI. I would love to see more of these pop up around the country.

coaster1 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Yeah we are going to be there .. for mostly ERT, heading off to Geauga Lake during the day most likely since everyone has been to CP .. well except one person, but she doesn't count ... we are staying at Breaker's .. so we should be there for morning ert, maybe a little after and then evening ert .. if we survive the first day of the trip.

M_Force_4_ever Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 ^sounds like fun, I doubt I could convince my party to go to Geauga Lake. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 There's the same argument on another board that the maXair riders were Photoshopped in... but whatever. The arm for maXair goes 120 degrees off horizontal (or, in this case, vertical), I believe. Your head is a little closer to the ground than your feet at full swing.

ECZenith Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Sweet! A large capacity Screamin' Swing will be built for the '06 season at CP. I've been on Dorney's smaller version and it was worth the 5 bucks. (Considering most upcharge rides are $20.00 +) Does anyone know if Thorpe Park's is upcharge or since it's a larger capacity, is it free with admission?

nemesis-storm Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Thorpe parks screaming swing is part of the general admission to the park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard_Hicks Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I've heard mostly that it will be an upcharge ride, but I can't be sure on that. EDIT-Well, I guess it's general admission then. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECZenith Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 First Drop reported it recently. I think it's great they're adding more flats to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Eraser Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Wild Adventures (Valdosta, Georgia) has a double model that is free with park admission. It was fun and relaxing, but not really worth any money. When the arms crested at the highest position, you got sort of a weird weightless pop. It was interesting. -kip- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Fan Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hmmmm a post from a New England member happy about CP getting a swing?.... WHy not just go to Lake Compounce in 2006 and ride the one they have... For free.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Why, in all places, would they put an upcharge ride OUTSIDE of Challenge Park? They could put it in Vertigone's old spot (just like Knott's did). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 -I doubt CP's will be an upcharge ride since it's the high capacity model. (I mean it COULD be an upcharge but it holds a ton of people, no reason to charge more) -I'm glad LC is getting one as well, I'm just happy for CP expanding its flat ride collection. I won't even go back to CP until 2007 where I'll probably hit Compounce a dozen times till then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 So does this mean they're not getting a coaster next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Not neccesarily, but I wouldn't expect anything big until at least 2007. In the mean time, they've closed Dragster so they can saw the top hat off and extend the height to 457'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I personally think their next coaster is going to go INTO Lake Erie, in like a clear tunnel. Just IMO. I dont believe the Swing rumor til Ive heard it from Cedar Point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Or at least seen pieces of it in the parking lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 At this point, we can only speculate. Things from construction code markings to dirt piles are causing a stir on other sites... Personally, I won't believe anything until an announcement... or like coasterdude said, until there's pieces in the parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzo41190 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I think a screaming swing would be cool over the Lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerC Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 yea it would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgathriller Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Sweet! I love screamin swings! Something new to ride when I go to Cedar Point in 06! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterlicious Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I wont believe it untill Cedar Point anounces it, but IMO it sounds like a bad idea.. maxair was nice but now we need a coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
