Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to the_rock401's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Cedar Fair has never bought a TOGO. They were all acquired through the Paramount buyout. I thought Windjammer Surf Racers at Knotts was bought by CF, I could easily be wrong though lol -

It wont happen anyways, Cedar fair hasn't bought from them in the past, so I doubt they will now. But they did buy from togo so I guess you never know though hahahaha -

I really don't think an isolated incident at one park (on a ride model that has been operating all over the world for years) can be used to say that everything from a particular manufacturer is dangerous. True, but I haven't heard a lot of good with Vekoma coasters. Have you ever been on one? A handful of slc's are fun, flying dutchmans are fun, inverted boomerangs are fun, GIB are amazing! -

and the bins so that quests can enjoy there ride without holding there crap I remember watching the building of Tatsu and I couldn't believe all the wiring they did on that ride. These modern day coasters are marvels of engineering! -

Carowinds Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I could be wrong but..... It seems like on MF that the final overbank turn that the trains slows down alot before hitting the brakes. Has anyone else noticed that? Is that tight overbank designed to slow the train before the brakes? -

Worlds of Fun (WOF) Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to OzCatter's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
All 4 Morgan Hypers, Steels Eel and Dragon are custom. *edited* Steel Force has that tunnel but otherwise is identical. To me, that's a clone, but obviously opinions vary. A little research goes a long way.. But they do look similar so I can understand the confusion -

Does your home park lose its luster?
grsupercity replied to jamesdillaman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Before CF bough MIA, the jourdans added rides every year. It kept it exciting to go ride the new rides every year. Lately it seems like a rarity for them to add anything (regardless if its thrilling or big or lackluster). Its hard to get excited for a new lemon aid stand lol. But since Im down to only about once a year it still has some magic for me. -

Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This is what I would call a luxury problem. Yes, just be happy Canada's Wonderland has two awesome Hyper/Giga coasters. These Cedar Fair parks do not have any Giga Coasters or really good Hyper coasters: -Knott's Berry Farm -Michigan's Adventure -California's Great America -World's Of Fun -Valleyfair -Dorney Park Steel force is good and Mamba isnt to bad. And wild thing has a decent first drop and some floater air. Better then nothing -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
grsupercity replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am still not understanding the Dive coaster. They already have a wing, floorless, and invert. Maverick already has a beyond vertical drop and would kill any dive coaster. There would have to be something pretty special about this Dive coaster to make it stand out against the other coasters in the park, otherwise its going to be like gatekeeper where its amazing to watch but doesn't stack up against some of the other rides. .02
