I would sure like to attend Leviathan Bash. However, I had to choose between that and ECB. And of course, there is Deep South Bash. Choices...choices...

Alright, this is my last idea submission. How about "Hawkeye the Ride"? Obviously, it is an Alan Alda, MASH-inspired wing-rider. Think second-tier licensing like Intimidator 305. TPR could then hold a Hawkeye Bash. For opening day, Alan Alda would ride first...as a single rider!

I think CP needs to pay tribute to Hawk of the legendary WWE and pro-wrestling tag-team of Hawk and Animal aka the Legion of Doom. I figure the coaster would be painted black and red. As the train descends, during its first drop, riders and nearby park attendees hear Hawk say, "what a rush"!!!!!. Let's call this ride Hawk 180 or Hawk's Rush!!! or simply Hawk. Eh? Eh?

Hasn't this really been like the worst kept secret ever? Seriously, I think we all know what it is... The Sandusky newspaper even published it! Here, let me remind you all... http://www.sanduskyregister.com/sandusky/belaboring-point/cedar-point/blog-cedar-points-wing-coaster-answers-enthusiasts-prayer I suppose I am in CP wing-rider denial. Somebody slap me. I wanted to believe the newspaper article was spurned by a so-called leak. I will just have to accept an "inverted" BM...I mean wing-rider.

According to CP, they would not give it away that easy. Is this simply another false clue? In short, is it a fake label?

Actually, I was somewhat surprised CP would get an "inverted" wing-rider. I suppose I expected something more unique or more BAM! Personally, wing-riders thrill me less than MF, TTD, or Maverick. That said, I would hope this particular wing-rider dazzles.

For a moment, I will pretend CP is getting something better than a BM wing-rider.

I rode Disaster Transport for the last time yesterday. Though I would rather see other types of coasters replace DT, I look forward to the new coaster at CP.

I enjoyed the show. Given that is to appeal to a larger audience (beyond enthusiasts), I cannot complain too much. It was also pretty cool to see Robb. I especially enjoyed his commentary about Aftershock.

I will be in front of my television tonight. It will also be fun to see Robb. Looking forward to it!

I was somewhat unsure about adding the backstage tour. However, considering this is my first TPR event, I would rather be a part of it.

I think there was a show/series several years ago that counted down the top-ten coasters. I was at King's Island this past May when Travel Channel was collecting Diamondback footage. Since then I have been looking forward to this series.

I would love to attend, awesome!

^^^^Yeah baby!

I would agree. Skyrush is smooth, yet powerful, "I'm going to launch you a couple hundred feet" ejector air. Magnum is obviously rough airtime. The restraint bruised my thigh the first time. In fact, my first ride was somewhat painful (to the extent it distracted me from the ride). By my second ride, I decided to try to move my body with the ride. Thankfully, by the third ride, there was no pain. Perhaps it was how tight the restraint was. I recall there was some space between that and my lap. In any case, I felt I got the true Skyrush experience during my last ride.

I visited Hershey a couple weeks ago and more specifically to ride Skyrush. During my initial wait, there were about six "technical difficulties". I entered the line around 10:15 and got on the ride by noon. Of course, I waited for the front row. Fast forward a few hours. Skyrush is down for about an hour. About 90% of the line cleared, leaving about thirty people. I decided to wait at the entrance. Fortunately, Skyrush reopened and I again rode front row, winged-seat. There weren't any other operating issues with the ride afterward. I got in line once more around 9:40. Yes, I again waited for the front row. However, I took the right-winged seat this time. With only me and two other riders occupying the front row, this last night ride was awesome! I truly enjoyed it. The air was cool, the train was essentially empty (we were the third to last group), and unlike the first ride, it was painless. In short, it was one of those almost perfect ride moments. I wanted more. Unfortunately, the park closed. I love Skyrush. Technical issues aside, I easily put it near atop my list. The airtime is incredible. I am unsure if I have experienced anything quite like it.

I have yet to visit either park. Needless to say, I am really looking forward to visiting both KD and BGW (I will finally have the opportunity to ride Intimidator 305, Apollo's Chariot, Volcano, etc). Of course, this is my first TPR event. Yes, I am pretty excited.

This new coaster looks rather promising. Of course, I have yet to visit SDC. This will likely give me that incentive to get out there. Having just experienced El Toro a couple weeks ago, I am somewhat on a "woodie kick".

Great pics! I am traveling to Hershey Park next month. I am definitely looking forward to riding Sky Rush.

Well put! I used fast lane at KI two weeks ago. I really wanted to ride "The Beast" at night (thanks R.L. Stine!). Thanks to Fast Lane, I had multiple night rides on it. For roller coaster enthusiasts, Fast Lane should be one of the greatest inventions since sliced bread.

I visited King's Island a couple weeks ago. Travel Channel was capturing Diamondback footage. The ride was actually temporarily "shut down" to allow a camera man to wade though the small pond (in shorts, shoes, and socks) that Diamondback's track crosses to retrieve a camera. In any case, I am looking forward to visiting CP this summer.

Local Fox News Chicago broadcasted live from SFGA this morning. I assume today was media day? Though it doesn't overwhelm me with speed, the ride appears to move rather smoothly and sleekly. I am looking forward to riding it this Saturday.

I was planning a trip to both KD and BGW early this summer. I suppose I will just wait til the Bash. Count me in.

Could I spot X-Flight from I-94?

Has anyone purchased an Xtreme pass?
