If I was being antagonized and scrutinized like Cedarfair1, I would probably respond the same way. Maybe he shouldn't have used the words "teaser video," but honest mistake, not a big deal. -
Kennywood (KW) Discussion Thread

Either it is 8X3 or 6X4. It can't be 9X3 as you suggest since that equals 27 people in the car. 8 seats per row. 3 rows is 24 seats. 9 rows is the total of rows for 3 trains. 3 could be the inversions instead of the amount of trains. -

3 cars 24 people per car 9 rows total with 3 rows per car 220 the drop 197 the height 75 is the speed in mph 120 is the speed in km/h sounds like a dive. -

I doubt this will be called Ziz or the other name for Ziz, but I think we will see Ziz in the future as a wing coaster. Has anyone checked to see if Ziz was ever trademarked by Cedar Fair? -

In a couple of your videos you mention there being another trench/tunnel being built. Can you please elaborate on location or draw on a photo or show a photo of this? -

I don't think the park opens until the 28th Season Pass Sneak Preview Night is on Friday, April 27th, 2018. The park officially opens for the season on Sunday, April 29th, 2018. Saturday, April 28th is Media Day, in other words the park is closed to the general public that day. For exact operating hours, please check out the calendar on Canada's Wonderland's website. Wasn't Media Day supposed to be today and Preview Night last night? Did things get switched because of the weather or did I read/remember wrong? Is this the same kotsy from UrbanToronto? -

^I'm so glad I'm not the only one. The only thing I can see is land clearing. I can't see any coaster track. I'm also not familiar with Canada's Wonderland what so ever. I'm checking these updates because I'm probably visiting the park next year. You can see the end of the track sticking out in the helix of Vortex, but that's about it. Everything else is assumption or stuff that we're not being told that cedarfair1 has seen that we haven't. -

Pretty sure the "theming" of the tunnel mentioned before is just formwork for the concrete walls. -

I noticed that Grace Peacock, the Director of Communications for Canada's Wonderland had hinted on Twitter that "...somebody's getting a makeover for 2018". In the photo it looks like Vortex's cars getting a makeover. It would be nice for Vortex's trains to receive their original colours which they had back when it opened in 1991, as that would be amazing. We'll just have to wait and see what's in store as time progresses. Vortex in 1991 (It's opening year): Photo credit: www.loopyguy.com It's getting a Timber theme How do you know this? Please provide proof. Just wait, theres 30 something days till the Bank days and Canada's Wonderland said they would reveal shortly Edit: I see they posted more photos. Maybe you're right. However, I think you should expand a bit more when you make a statement like that. "It's getting a Timber theme" is a factual statement, not a guess. A guess is "I think it's a getting a timber theme." So I was just asking for a bit more of an explanation on how you know/knew this. -

It's really hard to make out the tunnel right now. Loving the photo updates! I'd post them here also, instead of just on Instagram, as we can see them in their full quality here instead of compressed smaller sizes on Instagram. -

The enthusiast dream, I am hoping for the exact opposite, I much rather see a smaller drop, but instead stays lower to the ground and interacts with the surroundings while blending as well to make the ride look a lot better, as i have already said. I am curious why you would want a huge drop. Where did I say I want a huge drop? I only said what I think it might end up being. -

I'm excited to get a dive coaster! I feel like it could end up being a record breaker in terms of height of the drop. If the life is built going up the hill and the drop goes below the pond, it could really end up being quite the drop. Time will tell. Although to be honest, I'd really like a launched coaster or wing coaster and a better woodie or RMC. -
Insane Coaster Wars Season 3
khristopher replied to CPSFMMCW's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
You can buy the episodes on travelchannelshows youtube channel. Here is the link for episode 1 which is free, the rest of them you will have to pay for. I'm from Canada and I can't access any of those... It's as if it wasnt on sale here or something. Seems to only work within the USA. This is so irritating... I just wanna watch the show. :/ I really would like to watch these as well. I used to get them via torrents, but I can't seem to find them for this season. I managed to find the first 2 episodes using xdcc, but that's all I got so far. I'd pay for them if I could, but it seems they're not even available to buy in Canada.
