Not really a pirate ship, but S&S screaming swings are extremely fun! -

Worlds of Fun (WOF) Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to OzCatter's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I feel like the park's being given the short end of the stick- time after time. WOF has more potential than perhaps any other single cedar fair park. Why isn't it used? Perhaps numbers aren't impressive. Attendance not high enough, no staggering profit..? I don't quite get how you can't see WOF as being "made for being a great park". The whole statement you made was sort of contradicting on itself. WOF definitely could be phenomenal, no doubt about that, but we need to wait and see if cedar fair will let that happen. You can't expect larger numbers and higher attendance without something to draw people into the park. Invest well, then watch the return make money in the long run! MIA has been pulling in record attendance and record profit margins and they get passed over every year But in reality I think WOF is a very nice park. One of the better themed CF parks, I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere there! I would rank WOF higher then Dorney and VF. I think a small floorless coaster the size of Hydra would be great for WOF -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

^ VF already has a couple bright coasters with Cork and Mouse. I think you hit the nail on the head with afterburns color combo. I happen to like the combination on afterburn. I think a color combo similar to gatekeeper would look nice as well at vf -

larson super loop
grsupercity replied to grsupercity's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Six flags would prly buy one and advertise worlds tallest loop for a roller coaster But I think the visual impact of a 200 foot tall super loop would be great. Most parks don't even have a roller coaster that tall, let alone a non windseeker/drop tower flat ride -
Since parks seem to be building larson flying scooters and super loops like crazy, why not take the super loop to the next level. The 22m super loop is what, 72ish feet tall? Why not make a 61 meter one for a 200 foot tall super loop. Since the circle of the loop would be larger it should be able to hold 32-40 people. I know people here hate super loops, but I think a 200 foot tall one towering over a midway would look cool. just my .02

Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

CF loves orange and teal (your corkscrew) so thats off the table. If and when VF gets its next coaster its either going to red and white or blue and white. But teal and blue would be cool -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

I always go on Tuesday and Wednesday. Seems to be the best. Staying at breakers express is a cheap way to get into the park early as well and gives you free parking!
