  1. Deja Vu/Stunt Fall/Goliath are almost 200ft and don't have OUCH Headbanging.
  2. What about Hypersonic made you swear off KD? The Dark Knights. Let's theme a Family coaster to a PG-13 Movie and advertise it as a thrill coaster for families.
  3. La Vibora at SFOT. I seriously see that going for another coaster. Maybe an X-Flight clone? Low Capacity plus I can't see it lasting longer.
  4. Hopefully either Ninja at SFOG or SFStL. Replace those with Premier Rides Superman clones.
  5. 1988 Shockwave @ SFGAm Raging Wolf Bobs @ Former Geauga Lake Ninja @ SFMM Not a terrible year. Not spectacular but pretty good.
  6. I would rather take a Maurer Sohne or a Mack Spinning Coaster over the Gerstlauer because you are back to back instead of face to face.For the Sally dark ride, I just don't see that coming in the next 5 years but many in 10-15 years? It just seems something that everyone would enjoy, but they really need to do other things before a dark ride. Also, for the water coaster idea, I really think that's a good idea and it is easy to market. I loved Mammoth and Wildebeest at Holiday World, so I think these will do well at the park. What rides do you suggest then? Edit: Also I suggested the Dark ride cause I have a family member that has a terrible back so I try to find stuff for them to ride.
  7. Pat Koch also gave some info as well (Maccu Picchu, Waterpark Infrastructure) If you can tell me where the bubble fountain is, I can probably answer. The Weather rock is still there.
  8. Years ago I also rode a slide without the Lifeguards OK. Fortunately nothing bad happened and I didn't get my pass revoked. I've learned my lesson.
  9. 5. Ednor at La Ronde 4. Ednor at La Ronde 3. Ednor at La Ronde 2. Ednor at La Ronde 1. Ednor at La Ronde Makes a Vekoma SLC Feel like Iron Rattler by Comparison
  10. I've always thought a GCI where Nightmare was would be a great addition to the park. And I'd scrap Steaming Demon first. Or the Boomerang.
  11. I got back from a Weekend Trip to Rip Roaring Rampage and rode Rampage (#492) and Centi-Speed (#493). I rode Centispeed 2x and Rampage 26x Including 16 Times Nonstop Marathon. I'm pretty sure that was a record there but don't quote me. Other Fun Facts: - Free Soda in 2015 - They considered RMC to retrack it but it fell out. They went with a Company in Mexico - Dan's favorite song is Cotton Eye Joe - Pat Koch wants a Scrambler (She loves how kids love riding it) - Centispeed came from Gillian's Fun Land in New Jersey. It still has the Wacky Worm name on the station. - Pat also didn't ride Rampage as far as I saw - They were giving away Dippin Dot Tube things - They spent $1 Million dollars refurbishing Rampage - All the Seatbelts on Rampage are Different Lengths - They were supposed to only go until 10pm but because I wanted to ride it 26x (Pure speculation) they extended it to 10:16pm - The Waterpark still has alot of internal problems regarding water pipes - Rampage has a new logo with a Rhino. I prefer the original logo. See my Avatar and You be the judge - They were only running the red train and I didn't see the Blue train anywhere - Still offering Pepsi Products - He wants to hold another event in the Spring - The turning point before the ride goes under the supports of the U-Turn is the slowest part of the ride - There is roughly 13 moments of airtime on Rampage (Varies depending on Seat) - I Got to ride it with Dan Koch in his Purple Suit Glory for my 9th Ride - Rampage finishes stronger than it starts. It has a drop I like to call "The Raven Drop" that turns it from Legend to Raven - Pat Koch recently went to Machu Picchu, Peru - Robb, The ride has at least 5 moments of "Hairtime" - Also got to ride it with Dan Koch's Daughter And I made 3 ride suggestions for them to add in the future: 1. Gerstlauer Spinning Coaster (Perfect Middle Coaster between Centispeed and Rampage) 2. Sally Interactive Dark Ride (Good ride for older people who can't handle thrill rides/ Handicapped but are too tall for kids rides) 3. Proslide Hydro Magnetic Water Coaster (Marketable?)
  12. I really hope the parks gets a new coaster (like everyone else) instead of a Super Loop in 2016, but if the park still has to wait for a new coaster, a Superloop wouldn't be a bad addition. Anyway, it can't be worst than Buccaneer Beach; it sure is a nice "addition" for families but it's a pretty cheap new attraction. Maybe a Skyscreamer?
  13. Sledge Hammer at Canada's Wonderland.
  14. Oh My God. How could I forget that Piece of Junk. I never rode it with the Original Vekoma Trains but the Arrow trains don't save it. If It's smoother with those GASM trains, I feel for Georgia. Replace it With Scream from SFMM and make us all happy.
  15. Don't forget Premier Rides. They say they build parts for all-rides. They gave Big Apple Coaster new trains and magnetic brakes.
  16. Ednor at La Ronde. Replace it with a Fiesta Express and that will be an improvement. How Six Flags could make a Vekoma SLC MORE Painful than normal despite it being 15 years old. Headbanging between the final brakes and station.
  17. SFGAm- At least 6x every year since 1999-2000 Second place would be former Geauga Lake/ Kings Island/ Mount Olympus/ Six Flags Great Adventure where I've been there 3+ separate days since 2003-2004
  18. Darn, that's my favorite ride there! Love Excalibur! Every been on a B&M coaster? My vote for coaster removal would be the Tooth Chipper (Time Warp) at Canada's Wonderland. So unique, too bad they can't make it much smoother. And it's neighbor, Flight Deck. I usually enjoy Vekoma SLCs, but something was wrong with this one. In the front seat no less! Why would they take out Sky Rider and leave these 2 torture devices in? Time Warp and Flight Deck are Leviathan compared to Ednor at La Ronde. Flight Deck just needs new trains with soft padding (And a rename but I can wish).
  19. Cool. I loved Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and Underworld is kinda "So bad It's good".
  20. Green Lantern at SFMM Non Coaster Ride: Fly O Plane at Lake Winnie Mind Warp at Martin's Fantasy Island
  21. Python Pit at Go Karts Plus Jet Starr at Central Park Fun Land And Probably various other junior coasters at Kids Parks
  22. Possible Theme Park(s) in South Korea Six Flags Great America Paulton's Park Oakwood Leisure Park Alton Towers Pleasure Beach, Blackpool Flamingo Land Theme Park & Zoo Pleasure Beach Great Yarmouth Joyland Pleasurewood Hills And maybe Thorpe Park.
