Skyplex Orlando Discussion Thread

In the video I saw with Robb, this ride will NOT be a polarcoaster. -
There have been a lot of rumors about a GCI going into the boardwalk, spurred on by posted a few months back. The coaster is clearly sitting in SFFT's boardwalk section. SFFT's twitter has also used #coasters in recent teasers... So who knows what that means. I can't imagine a new coaster so soon, but it sure would be nice eh? Texas would love its own GCI. As a state, we only have 2 "true" woodies now, In Judge Roy Scream and Boardwalk Bullet.

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Gatekeeper is probably my 3rd favorite in the park behind Millie and TTD. -
I'd like to point out, I think this Carmen Brown women is full of shit. She's told the media two bold faced lies. 1-She mentions the clicking noise, where as the Giant uses pneumatic restraints, and they make absolutely no noise. Giants restrains do not click. 2-Her account in the following quote is impossible because the incident took place on a part of the ride that cannot be seen from the station. "She goes up like this," Brown said raising her hand up in the air. "Then when it drops to come down that's when it released and she just tumbled ... And I said that could have been me because I don't do roller coasters."

JRS is classic, it doesn't need El Toro airtime or steel tracks, it's a ride for the same target as pandemonium. And its a classic woody. Call up RMC for some topper track and maybe some more padding on the PTC's and its set. Its a fun ride, albeit right now not in the best state. It's also got a beautiful setting along the lake, looks awesome lit up at night and reflecting of the water.

I'm thankful I don't have SFA in my backyard, but I also would be more grateful if I had a new ride. Sure looking at a fat person might make you feel better, but that's still not gonna actually take you anywhere. What you gotta do is look at the super fit person, and hit the gym to actually get better. Ok so that's not how corporations and everything work, but damn, there's just a lot of potential. But It's ok, because I know that one day there going to put something in that corner. Just hope it's awesome... Also, Starflyers are awesome. If the 400 foot rumor is true, even better!

I dont think anyone has mentioned something like this. Removing Flashback and Chute out opens the perfect place up for a station for an out and back hyper ALA Goliath at SFOG that goes out over JRS and the lake. rough sketch... Is it gonna happen? nah. Would I like it to? Hell yea! It also leaves the strip mall, bumper cars, Johnny Rockets and everything else in that corner for future expansion

They stacked it by at least two cars everytime I was close enough to see. There was never a moment when a train wasnt between the first drop and the brakes though, so they were running it alright. The line moved at a fairly quick pace, even though it was pretty long. Perhaps the stapling slowed them down a bit

I rode it today! Really Kickbutt ride, cant wait to get out and do it again. The line was about 2.5 hours, but there was only on bullpen section (inside the chapperall cars old station, and it had AC) and offered a great view most of the time and wasn't to bad. The Ride of course was great, I haven't seen anyone mention that the second rave tunnel was misted? Felt great to cool down it. Everything else I want to say has already been said. My only complaint was, about an hour into it, the cycled all three trains twice, empty, anyone know a possible reason for this?
