  1. Except they are getting a wood coaster.
  2. I've been following this project for a while now, and it's amazing. I could never do this!
  3. What changes could you make to your favorite coaster to make it better? Improve the layout, speed up the lift, or restore the original ride. For me, I'd make Bizarro's drop steeper. Right now, once you crest the hill it's completely straight, not curved. So what would you do?
  4. Wait.. what? Yea this confused me as well. It was stopping quickly, causing the middle to pop up a little and slam back down.
  5. Cyclone at SFNE was jumping the tracks coming into the brakes the last night. It was like it was running too fast.
  6. Not a Super Loop. Six Flags canceled the Super Loops when the incident at SFDK happened. I'm not sure what the ride is, but it's not a Super Loop.
  7. There's also the Giang Air Race rumors.. More like leak..
  8. I hate to be a know it all, but I know RoS is getting new trains. I've been there since Friday, and I had a Q&A session with upper management and talked to multiple mechanics. Apparently the park is working with Intamin to create 2 new trains. I'm 100% sure RoS is getting 2 new trans.
  9. Can't wait for the new gen trains on Ride of Steel..
  10. Really?!??! You're BLAMING THE PARK!?!?!? What the hell is wrong with you?!?!?! You mean a fence and a GIANT METAL ROLLER COASTER SCREAMING BY YOU isn't instruction enough to figure out that you shouldn't be going to get a lost cell phone in a restricted area??? You know, they put up the fences and signs because of people like you. He said they need to put up better instructions if you loose an article. I see signs at other parks, by there aren't many signs that say "your items will be retrieved after the park closes" or something. It should be common sense to climb not over the fence though..
  11. Hi guys!! I'm planning a trip to Darien Lake! I have a few questions: 1) Are there any ride that only run 1 train? 2) How should I hit the park? Like which rides first? 3) Are there any 'must rides' besides RoS? 4) Is the food any good? Thanks! I'm planning on having a blast there!
  12. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Prepares to Silence the ROAR Popular Wooden Roller Coaster Closing for Good VALLEJO, Calif. – July 16, 2015 – Six Flags Discovery Kingdom today announced that its iconic wooden roller coaster, Roar, is set to close on Sunday, August 16, 2015. Guests and fans can ride Roar one last time from 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on August 16. After that, the ride will be permanently closed. "We are a dynamic and evolving entertainment venue,” said Don McCoy, park president. "Although Roar continues to be a guest favorite, sometimes hard choices must be made to allow for future expansion.” Roar opened in 1999 amidst a major revitalization effort, with several new shows and attractions, restaurants and shops opening simultaneously. Since that time, an estimated 11 million guests have experienced the 10-story coaster featuring six reversals, 22 crossovers, 17 turns and 12 breathtaking drops, in this 55 mph ride that was named for the thunderous roar of a California sea lion. Roar is a traditional wooden roller coaster featuring a 3,467 foot-long wooden track. Officials have not announced any plans for an attraction to replace the coaster. A special fond farewell to Roar will include a series of events for guests and Season Pass holders, the highlight of which will be a special last rider event coinciding with National Roller Coaster Day on August 16.
  13. I found myself in Robb's POV. I was in the front when he filmed it through the stall!There were only 4 people on the train!
  14. Namtab, or another thing, will be announced in February.
  15. You can't judge a coaster by the park... Even if the park isn't as good as others..
  16. There's no word yet. That part of the park is supposed to close after tomorrow. Judging by the new/refurbished train pieces under Scream, it appears the colors will be the same. It will be announced soon... Along with some other announcments for the other parks..
  17. Granted, but you have to do school work all vacation. I wish that I had a maid to do everything for me..
