Geauga Lake Discussion Thread
RollerC replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was about to mention that. If they had a normal season then they could of broke the 800,000 mark or greater seeing as the Haunt had the biggest draw of people. -

So will it be removed during the 2007 season or will they wait for the off season next year? -

Why does every logo dealing with a bird have the head centered and the wings spawned out? It reminds me of Thunderhawks logo at GL. -

It should be open. I think Dominator is the one with the on board video thing. That or Villain. -

An article in a Cleveland Newspaper had some improvements for the 2007 season: One can assume that Domaintor and Head Spin will be the ones to be repainted. Heres the full article but it's register to view: http://www.crainscleveland.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070205/REG/70202030/1071/2020 -

So it's going to be the same color as Stealth? -
Villain Begins Reconstruction
RollerC replied to RollerC's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The thing is, is that they had it at a section of the track where the train was running at it's highest speed. If they had it towards the end where it was slower, it wouldn't of bashed people around. -
http://www.jeslive.com/photos/displayimage.php?pos=-1701 It looks as though they are finaly working on Villain. They are flattening the track where the trick track use to be so that should make the ride a bit more enjoyable.

A new amusement park!
RollerC replied to ArrowHater's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Seeing as Kansas is in Tornado Alley, don't they have those to worry about? How good to rides stand during winds that strong? I'd hate to see the park demolished by a rouge Tornado. -

I was hopping that they would come up with something a little better...I mean: Skyhawk Thunderhawk and now Firehawk -

Don't expect a test run for a while. Temps here are in the negetives for a few days. I would say a March or early April test run sounds more feasible. -
Six Flags Milwaukee
RollerC replied to EuroTre's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I think they look ok. I don't like the sand under all of the coasters and it seems like the rides are placed in the middle of nowhere. -

It was mentioned on either TN or GG. Someone said one of the PR people said it was going to be worked on during the off seaosn. -
In alot of wooden coasters, especially when it enteres a turn or helix, there is a whistling sound. What is that sound from?

Thats almost like asking why they didn't remove it when they removed X-Flight from the website and why they said that it was to open at GL in 07. -
The Best Morgan Hyper Coaster
RollerC replied to Thrillrider15's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Phantom is definitely a unique Morgan hyper and the fact that it isn't trimmed and never looses it's pace. -

RollerC replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It wouldn't. It's going to be operating at GL for the 07 season. Also, they haven't even begun to work on the broken lims. That could be one of the reasons why it isn't on the map and that could be a reason why it isn't on the list of coasters for ERT. -
Horizontal bunjee jump
RollerC replied to Calvin's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
If I remember, the name of the video was called Redneck Slingshot. But anyways, as it looks fun, I dunno about the safety aspect. -

I don't see them doing either of those. I highly doubt they want to kill a park who's history extends back to the 1800's. -

I hope people don't go all "A thrill ride isn't in the family experience". Well Hydes was built and it obviously did well during its time at the park. -

Yes If they can return Frenziod, why can't CF return Musik Express to GL BTW, I never liked the look of those ships BTW. I think an AREO 360 type ride would of looked better. -

I thought about it for a few hours and I come to the conclusion that it could be a good idea. AS long as they do a really good expansion project for 2008! I want to see them add 4 or 5 flats to the ride side. Fix things up, repaint Dominator and Headspin, retrack Villain(like they were actually going to do it this year ) rid rid of the old waterpark site and other general park improvements. They really need to put those big pavillions in the old waterpark spot(Like the ones at Kennywood). With the 4 or 5 flats. I'd like them to add 2 Big Flats(Like a revolution or even an S@S Double Shot) and 2-3 family flats. I'd like them to bring back the silver bullet and the Music Express. I would also like to see the rides on the waterpark side to be placed on the ride side. I know that sounds like alot so mabey they should have it has a 2008-2009 project. I would also like to see a Coasters restraunt because I liked the one at CP. -
I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I always wondered, what would GL be now is CF purchased the rights for the Six Flags naming and kept the Wildlife Park and the old Water Park. Would they of still have been in this downsizing/attendence sagging? This question has been on my mind for days.
