They need to add a double helix at the end, that would be awesome!

In the meantime Soda is free at Holiday World. Six Flags is really pushing the limits here...

Are these prices real or an exaggeration?

Damn, hope you are okay Zack. Sorry to hear that

The Southern and Western 'burbs are fine ... along with all of St Charles County and Metro Illinois. There is a big audience out there for Six Flags StL if they want it, especially if you include Memphis.

Who here remembers Tilt-more Hotel? or another walk-through attraction, the Haunted House down where Tidal Wave used to be?

Don't be diss'ing the Mule Go Round! Still hoping that will come back one these years, Yes... the 300 Foot Version!

The same discussions have been going more than a decade, since SixFlagsStL.net (or whatever that url was) ... in a nutshell, Six Flags will fix the Infrastructure then we will finally get a new massive coaster. We need more attendance before anything worthwhile comes our way... yada yada. Yes we are a hopeful bunch.

You got me by one year ... I was 9 in '76. I rode it opening year with my Siblings. I almost chickened out when we got to the station and I looked at the height of lift hill. My sister said 'No way!' and forced me on. Glad she did

I did a quick scan on youtube and found this Video ... the dbl up is right after the 180 degree Turnaround into the Turn back to the station.

That section is pretty deep in the woods, doubt anyone could of taken a picture of it.

I am old enough to remember that Double Up on the last turn before the station. It was awesome and is sorely missed. You could hear the train wheels momentarily leave the track and slam back down. Steve

My guess is a ZacSpin or Sky Rocket (Tigris) or Raptor type of coaster in Tidal Wave's old spot.

Freeze is also a Shuttle Coaster ... we really don't need 3 of those.

Cool Lighting! hopefully we will see more of that around the Park this year. Coaster still stinks tho
