I was not prepared for Valhalla when we rode it back in 2018. We just thought "oh hey, here's a fun indoor log flume ride!" Didn't put on ponchos or anything.
Needless to say, we spent a lot of time in those family dryers afterwards lol.
Surprised you ended up liking Big One as much as you did. I, too, revered it from the picture books I had growing up, but it ended up being just a one-and-done for me. I suspect that the trains were more uncomfortable for me being a bigger guy.
Steeplechase is an international treasure, and wars should be fought in the name of preserving it as long as possible.

I think that’s against the law in rural Indiana.

That looks beautiful! love the colors, too.
Always appreciate an Ozymandias reference!

Looks like a nice balance of kid stuff and thrills. Great area for families - prefer seeing things like this where kid stuff just isn't segregated to one section but instead integrated around larger stuff (Hersheypark does a great job at this).
This park routinely shows how it somehow is always a step above the rest of the company's lineup.

The Smiler theme in the queue music is still an earworm in my and my wife's ears 7 years later.

And skibidy everything.

Not really worried about DDD, but man, I really hope they have a truly solid plan for upcoming changes and new additions. They're gutting some really big / important stuff from this park.

Are we incapable of putting more than one sentence within a single post?

Fun addition that looks like a supercharged version of the Ripsaw ride they removed a while back.
Side note, Alton Towers, more than any other park, seems to pride itself on selecting ride names that would find perfect homes within Roller Coaster Tycoon scenarios.

I somehow overlooked SFoG also not opening this ride up last year. Got marginally excited for a second there. That'll learn me.
That said, the rename is a slight improvement.

It was my favorite coaster when we visited the park, but that was 2013 and with a much younger, fit body more capable of taking a beating.

I would've liked to have visited Drayton Manor, but I fear if I tried to cram one more amusement park into our honeymoon while in Great Britain (already had BPB, Alton, and Thorpe on the schedule), my wife would've sought to annul our marriage the moment we landed on the tarmac at JFK. Mind you we also already did Efteling and Walibi Holland in the Netherlands during the trip, as well.
Looks like you had a great time!

My attitude is there are about 15 active posters still left on this forum, so anything that’s going to drive content is welcome at this point, regardless of how many dead horses are beaten in the process.

The more reason to stop giving them your money. It’s a lot more freeing than you think.

Parachutes tower is officially down.

Getting rid of the skyway is dumb. That's a good classic family ride. I wouldn't think it's too hard to maintain.
Bummed about it as well, but it was anticipated. The cables need to be completely replaced every ten years or so, and there was apparently discussion about removing them the last time the cables were redone due to the cost factor. Plus it already cannibalized all remaining parts from other Six Flags sky rides that already had fallen, like SFNE's.
That said, if the company was remotely interested in anything other than the bottom line like some other parks, I'm sure they would've been able to figure something out. Another reason why I'll gladly give my money to other parks in the meantime if I absolutely need to scratch my coaster itch.

So we will just bitch and continue to give them money.
I mean you do you, but talk about pointless…

The only real way an opinion can matter is when it affects the almighty dollar. I haven’t been pleased with Six Flags for some time now, so I haven’t given them a dime since 2019 and don’t intend to for the foreseeable future, depending on how the next couple of years go post merger.
