that's exactly what I've been thinking, with the addition of Barnacle Blast, we've seen that NU really doesn't have room to expand on the ground. And an Intamin Zacspin would fit those requirements, very small footprint, and inverts like we would want a new coaster at NU to do. But also, I think if you removed the Eats section from the park, you have ample space for a Zamperla Air Race. Just my thoughts.

Going back to the height issue, in 2013 My family went on a trip to Busch Gardens Africa. At the time my younger sister was 47" tall, but we had her wear really thick flip flops, giving her a height just over 48". throughout the whole day we weren't told anything about the flip flops, and she was able to ride a lot more rides than if she didn't wear them. Just a tip about how to meet the height requirement.

Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

I think I'll be perfectly fine with this expansion because it sounds like at least part of this expansion could bring some new water slides that are actually thrilling. Something thrilling is exactly what VF needs because Renegade (2007) was the last thrilling addition. Even though Northern Lights (Disk'O coaster) was a better ride than I expected, I wouldn't call it a thrill ride. I've said this before, but the waterpark needs this expansion badly because Soak City is one of the worst, if not the worst waterpark in the Cedar Fair chain. I'm 99% sure Soak City is the worst in the Cedar Fair chain. compared to other Cedar Fair waterparks, we look pathetic -
Just another reason to love six flags . But really, that's just horrible. The fast passes have really been a disappointment so far. I bought platinum Flash passes so I could ride Goliath, surprise surprise, you only get one ride. I was counting on buying Hurricane Harbor flash passes so I could skip all the lines, LOL NOPE, you only get to the bottom of the tower.

I know this probably isn't the place where I should be asking this, but I'm getting flash passes for Hurricane Harbor, and I see "atomic slides" under the flash pass list. But on the park website I don't see any waterpark ride under the name "atomic slides", can anyone help me with what slides they're talking about. My best guess is Hurricane Mountain.

The water expansion is supposedly to be similar to Dorney's and Worlds of Fun's. I included that. These are just several locations that could house attractions. We could be seeing a major waterpark overhaul instead of just a complex. -

Lets talk about possible expansion plots and new attraction locations. First up, Valleyfair. The amphitheater could be demolished to make way for a new coaster. Enterprise can fit into the figure 8 of Wild Thing, which could make more space for one. I imagine an Intamin launch fitting into that area and havin the ride fly over the park entrance, such as gatekeeper, and turn around in dinosaurs alive and fly over the entrance again. the carnival games building behind The Wave could be demolished too, and with the scrambler space, could make space for a family coaster or a couple of small flats. Mad mouse could fit into that small area too. Now to Soak City. the hydro blaster area could be used as a big family pool. the current volleyball courts I want to see be taken out, and have that area possibly house a proslide cannonbowl. of course the old Imax area will house the "Snake Pit" like slide complex. And a new children's splashpad couldn't hurt as a waterpark expansion. -

My guess for all the B&M track, White: Gardaland, Teal: Carrowinds, Yellow: B&M flying coaster in China, Orange: Holiday World -

I quite enjoy those too, but my favorite has to be the family raft. -

I think we're forgetting about mack rides here, could be a possibility for a launched coaster. -
I'll be visiting the park in two months and I have so questions that come to my mind, what are the typical crowds during late August? How busy does Hurricane Harbor get during those days? how useful are the Flashpasses (I already have them, including HH)? And finally, do any areas or attractions open up at later times after park opening?

I cant decide if mentioning 1620 is some what a clue or just a statement -

I'm still waiting for someone (*cough*B&M*cough*) to build a hyper inverting coaster, one day. I'm willing to bet RMC will do it first. They only missed the mark by 20 feet with Goliath and Alan Schilke is a mad man when it comes to designing roller coasters. don't forget about Intamin -

Maybe the mystery B&M track is coming to Holiday World? -

please note that I'm new to this discussion! I saw a post on Instagram about a "wooden box" that had items in it labeled 5/19/14, I did some researching, if the slogan is "66 days at sea", maybe the coaster will be announced July 22nd? and call me crazy, but I think the new coaster will be a giant Intamin Aquatrax themed to the mayflower -

Also, if you took Wild Thing's queue, and turned it 90* to the right, and moved the exit, even more space! (please note that I'm well aware of how crazy that sounds ) -

If VF removed the maintenance/guest help building and the existing children's area, you have a decent plot for a Whitewater West children's play structure or even a Proslide ridehouse. Former Imax area will probably become the Whitewater West complex, maybe even a Flowrider could squeeze in that space. Remove Snoopy's Red Baron and the Hydro Blaster, boom, easy space for WWW mat racer or a Proslide Kraken racer. Adding on to the "Snake Pit" complex, WWW is famous for Aqualoops, so why not have a breakaway slide be an aqualoop , just my two cents.
