    • ^ Ooooooooo.  🤩 And I have no idea how to cancel this "Quote" box. Help!
    • The world's tallest vertical loop is in place! Pics courtesy of Six Flags Over Texas!  
    • The loop was topped out yesterday.  I realized on a clear, cold morning last week that I can see the lift and Immelman from a freeway interchange 9 miles away on my drive to work.
    • Universal has announced that Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift will open in Summer 2026! It’s official: “Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift,” Universal Studios Hollywood’s first high-speed outdoor roller coaster will open this summer. The eagerly awaited news coincides with the launch of an exciting media campaign that includes a dynamic :30 spot featuring narration by Fast & Furious franchise producer, star and longtime parks collaborator, Vin Diesel. The pulse-pounding spot is slated to air within several high profile sporting event telecasts, including The Winter Olympics, Super Bowl LX and NBA All-Star all on NBC and Peacock. The campaign spot captures the spirit of the thrill ride, designed to immerse guests within Universal Pictures’ exhilarating Fast & Furious universe, as Universal Studios Hollywood prepares for its much anticipated summer opening. This innovative roller coaster will be located on the Upper Lot of Universal Studios Hollywood within an expansive red brick, garage-like structure. It will feature groundbreaking 360-degree rotation technology designed to create a seamless sensation of drifting cars as guests spin in motion at speeds up to 72 MPH, while careening along 4,100 feet of elaborate aerial track—the equivalent of nearly 12 football fields—that winds its way over sections of the theme park, including the multi-level Starway escalator that connects the Upper and Lower Lots. Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift will launch as Universal Pictures kicks off the 25th anniversary of the blockbuster Fast & Furious franchise and its final theatrical release, Fast Forever, slated for March 17, 2028. “Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift” will benefit from Universal Destinations & Experiences’ decades-long expertise in revolutionizing the development of contemporary roller coasters across its global theme parks.
    • Canada's Wonderland has officially announced May 3rd as opening day for the 2026 season! 😀 https://www.facebook.com/share/p/185FYDVcUe/
    • I had a theory that they hadn't announced anything yet because they were waiting to see which slides survived deconstruction from Six Flags America that they could move to Valleyfair🤣 but now that we see the complex up we know it's a brand new complex. Which makes their lack of announcement all the more puzzling. 
    • A new higher res. image confirms that they'll have light up portions in the darker colored slides as seen in the colored stripes on the green slides. A nice touch considering none of the nearby parks I know of have it.  Another interesting note is Six Flags seemed to make no mention of the new waterpark expansion in this recent update on passholder benefits (second page of attached link). Seems to be a bias present towards former Cedar Fair parks, or at least VF, especially considering they haven't let the park announce anything formally yet. We've been lucky to have even got the teasers we have so far, which is sad considering there's been more revealed about the expansion from people driving by the park, or the construction company in charge of the install. Valleyfair's relationship with long time enthusiasts and loyalists is already so damaged, this delay is simply making it worse. Hopefully they can get the right marketing leadership involved and they can start to do damage control in light of a (hopefully) soon to be built rollercoaster. https://s204.q4cdn.com/155295784/files/doc_news/2026/Feb/02/SFEC-Announces-Regional-Pass-New-Gold-Benefits-2026-w-Capital.pdf Also considering the following permit filings, does anyone have any idea what the project over by looping starship's former plot of land will be?  "BLDC-029534-2025 Building (Commercial)- New: M1 Slide Tower Footings & Retaining Wall Footings are closely connected [$150,000] BLDC-029541-2025 Building (Commercial) - New: M2 - Lagoon Area Footings and Foundation Walls.

    • Beautiful silhouette! Titan in the foreground and Tormenta in the background! Pic courtesy of Six Flags Over Texas!  
    • Another update from today. Falcon's Fury, Sheikra, Cheetah Hunt and Congo Rapids were closed. Hopefully Cheetah Hunt will be reopening soon as it was testing with water dummies while I was there.   The topiary at the entrance was covered up due to the cold weather.   Even though it got to almost 70 degrees today, this sign was still up maybe for the next few days when it won't get above the 50s.     A train in the station with the water dummies (blue). That was as close as I could get from the sky ride queue that shares the station building with Cheetah Hunt.   This is from a week and a half ago but the splash down track is being replaced. 
    • Renewed my season pass last month and on my way out, I managed to spot several markers near Lakeview Grove. Could this be for a future project in 2027?? Looks like it goes near and/or down the ravine so I'm not saying a flat ride but maybe something like Big Bear Mountain at Dollywood could work perfectly in this spot!
    • It's swapping.  While there are certainly some area of neglect at SFMM, park ops are generally pretty good, and customer service has improved a lot. While at Knott's, they have more guests than they can handle, and the ops generally aren't very good anymore.
    • It was over 15 years ago, but SFMM didn't live up to my expectations. The neglect was just too much to ignore. I hope things have changed, since then. Knotts, on the other hand, exceeded my expectations.
    • (My choice years would have been 1990 - 2005'ish, minus September, 2001... but the rides are great today.) 😄
    • Oh boy am I glad to have been wrong. Although it's not a watercoaster, these tube slides and what appears to be a matt racer parallel pursuit model look more impressive than what I had originally anticipated. Plus they're a better fit for what Soak City (Surperior Shores pretty soon I guess) needed. Now my only complaint is that they had initially said last chance to ride these attractions (being everything in the older side of the waterpark) only to end up replacing just the body slides. Think about how much nicer it would have been if they got a new raft slide and upgraded the current lazy river to feature some new technology. Now I can only hope they reveal the plans soon since we have no images of the new lagoon area coming in where looping starship used to rest. Hopefully it's a larger kids tower complex than what barefoot beach featured. I'm thinking a split rock lighthouse centerpiece with slides surrounding it, or coming out from it would be nice. I'd also be nice to feature newer kid slides and one of those ropes course style attractions that go over water.  On another note, their Meta social media platforms featured a sneak peek at some of the adult beverages, and the color of them matched the slides in the background of the photos. A nice touch on their end that hints that the retheme is going beyond just new slides. Hopefully nicer food options will follow. 
    • ^ ... As long as the paint is waterproof, and doesn't fade (much) under the California sun. ☀️ Any design is possible.
