Rumored to be Cannibal, a 200 ft. Inverting coaster with elevator lift and manufactured by Lagoon themselves. -

Nothing big, but there definitely will be some photos of opening day this weekend from Lagoonisfun.com -
Kolmården Discussion Thread
RCF replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Why does this make me believe Robb could possibly be yanking our chains?? I remember the owner say it will change all parks, or something around that. Could it be that we aren't looking at a roller coaster, flat ride, or dark ride at all? In other words, a new ride category that doesn't fit any other category? Hard to think of what else could be done to still be considered a ride of sorts. -
Need help with another Theme Park Show Idea!
RCF replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would like to see some more behind the scenes of the major coaster being constructed at Lagoon. For it being the biggest roller coaster to be manufactured in-house by a family owned park would make it a nice story, and could even put in other rides into the mix like Orphan Rocker that never opened, (if it was a project without an actual manufacturer) or Flying Turns which finally opened after so many years of complications. -

Most of the time everything is open on opening day. Many times, the reason rides aren't open is for year-long maintenance or is a new ride of the season. For the major rides, expect them open. I don't recall if the water rides will be open or not, but I do know the rapids ride we have does have some features off in the beginning of the season. The park on opening day gets a decent crowd, but even on busy days the lines aren't unbearable. I have never had to wait longer than an hour, or seen a line account for an hour-long wait time. You will most likely be able to ride everything you want to multiple times. -
Mitch Hawker's steel roller coaster poll 2013 !
RCF replied to booink's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Does anyone else have a problem with many family and jr. coasters not being on the ballot anymore? I know they do get the lowest scores so they would be near the bottom, but why take them out when they are still functioning roller coasters? I find this to be a problem, especially with my home park having a very nice custom jr. coaster, (BomBora.) -
Now this is a personal experience at my home park. While riding Fire Dragon one time, my vision went blurry while going down the first drop. I believe it was caused from the entire train vibrating down the track. Never happened to me after that. I guess my myth is can a ride alter your vision because of vibration, forces, etc?

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said

My friend is soon going to be heading to Arizona for the Six Flags down there. I even provided the website of Six Flags to show they didn't have a park out there. She says she's been there before and is going to head out there anyway. -

I loved Mack's answer to what they would like to do without restrictions. A launched water ride would be pretty interesting and fun. -

The tunnel will be a mouth. The ride will be being lifted on a spoon, fall into the mouth, and the rest of the ride is traveling through the body. -

Just gonna get this out there. Wicked was $10 million, an it has been said this coaster will be the biggest investment at Lagoon, so it will be more than $10 million. -

It is going to be west of Skyscraper, taking up the area where Top Eliminator was and some of the overflow parking. Constuction started when they removed Top E. at the end of the 2011 season. -
