Canobie Lake Park Discussion Thread

There are a bunch of construction markers that were just spotted around Corkscrew and the field next to it. I believe there were also some inside Corkscrew, so this may be the end of that ride. Apparently some of the markers say things like "track for station" and "end of station" on them. Sounds like they could be getting something awesome! -

They do have room for a decent steel coaster, nothing giant though. It would definitely be on the smaller side if that's what they are getting. I believe the park mentioned they wanted a steel coaster since they removed mad mouse. -

I would go on the Saturday, usually they will run two trains on BD when they are more crowded, which will make the line move very fast. Saturday would allow you to get late night rides on BD, and would allow you to watch the laser show at 9pm then ride BD after. -
This coaster absolutely blew me away today, the insane pacing and relentless elements are amazing. The rolls have awesome hangtime/airtime, the turns are fun, and every hill is ejector air. The trains are also very comfy and the restraints are great. Absolutely incredible ride and the POV video does not do it justice (or any ride justice). This is now my new favorite steel coaster.

Definitely worth checking out, I would do Quassy then LC in one day. I have only been to Quassy twice, the second visit was for my school's graduation and I got 23 rides on Wooden Warrior with dubstep, heat lightning, and rain. It was insane -

I believe the park said they are planning on cutting it in half. I think 6 inversions one way and another 6 the other way would be the best cycle. Seems like the way it is now would make anyone sick lol. -

Here is a video of Quassy's new ride! I think the cycle needs to be shortened a little! 25+ inversions is a little too much! -

Here are a few pics from a recent off-season tour! Dino Expedition is a lot cooler than I thought! Here are a few notes. -Park bought a 100ft tall led tree for holiday lights, I believe it will be set up in the middle of the entrance. -Outdoor acrobat show is now in the starlight theater, clown haunt will no longer be in there, possibly outdoors. -Other outdoor haunt was canned due to short time between October and December. (Too long to take down) -A little bit of track work was done on BD, the brake run and turnaround area got work. -Wildcat looked the same as before. (no work) -La Fiesta may be re-done next season. -Park buys 4 pallets of new life jackets each year because they "disappear". -Lots of new LED lighting coming in. Downtimes lights were $24,000. -Campground is looking great. Lots of additions like wifi, electricity, and fans for the teepees, new cub huts, and an awesome new wooden bear on top of the camp store building.
