  1. I am glad to hear you had a great first visit and were able to ride AlpenFury! I got my first rides on AlpenFury on Monday and thought it was insane! As for a chaperone policy, there is not one at the park. I wish there was one in place, as I too (as a regular), have seen many teens being disruptive and rowdy during multiple visits over the past three years. That behavior does kind of take away from the experience. Hopefully you're able to come back soon!
  2. The wait is over! AlpenFury will be opening this Saturday, July 12th! Season pass holders can also get exclusive ride time on AlpenFury from 9am to 10am on select dates! Who's ready to ride?
  3. No official opening date for AlpenFury has been announced as of yet. Lots of testing has been happening over the past month, so hopefully soon!
  4. After an extensive retracking, Mighty Canadian Minebuster officially reopened yesterday! Canada's Wonderland posted an on-ride video on their social media channels! It looks so smooth now!
  5. AlpenFury has officially begun testing! Who's excited to ride?
  6. The final piece for AlpenFury was put into place earlier today!
  7. A contracting company that was involved with the retracking of Mighty Canadian Minebuster have shared a video of the work completed! I can't wait to ride it again! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKZTd_6uj7M/?igsh=d2MyZ3Q5Z3d3c2N5
  8. Here are some photos of AlpenFury I captured today while at the park. It isn't quite complete yet, but very close! AlpenFury looks to be a great coaster once it does open!
  9. All updates sound great! I am looking forward to riding the Mind Eraser with its new trains wheb I visit in July! Here's hoping they have the other roller coasters operating with two trains!
  10. It is still undergoing retracking by Gravity Group. The track that I could see from the path along Splashworks from when I visited Friday looks great. I can't wait to ride it again once it reopens!
  11. AlpenFury makes the fourth attraction to interact with Wonder Mountain.
  12. Here are some recent updates for AlpenFury and the rest of the park via their social media! Canada's Wonderland via Facebook Canada's Wonderland via Facebook I am happy to see them refurbishing Spinovator! I love that Canada's wonderland takes care of their classic rides. This year is looking to be another exciting season!
  13. I sure hope so as the parts they redid with Titan track over the last few years rode great! I am wondering when the park will share an update of the Mind Eraser? A photo of the new trains would be better than nothing!
  14. Just in case you thought the colours of AlpenFury and Leviathan were the same, Canada's Wonderland recently clarified this on their social media. Source: Canada's Wonderland Facebook I do hope they begin to share more construction photos of AlpenFury soon!
  15. Quantum Accelerator is looking to be a fun addition for Six Flags New England! The park has done a great job with the updates!
  16. Yes, it is interesting to see Vekoma Boomerangs using old Arrow trains. Others include The Bat at Canada's Wonderland and Boomerang at Six Flags St Louis. One would think those coasters would be of greater priority than ones with the Vekoma trains from the 90s. Maybe we'll see it happening within the next year or so!
  17. The closest that I could think of is Waldameer in Erie, PA. It operates for only 89 days from the first Saturday in May through Labor Day. Keep in mind though that Waldameer is closed on Wednesdays throughout the season and some weekdays in late-August as schools start to go back in the area that time of year. I do imagine there are a few others in North America that have a shorter season.
  18. As of the beginning of the 2024 season, a child is no longer required to ride Taxi Jam or Snoopy's Racing Railway! Snoopy's Racing Railway is a fun launch coaster!
  19. That's great to hear Gravity Group got the contract. I am looking forward to riding Mighty Canadian Minebuster again this year!
  20. I forgot to share this here, but last week Priestly Demolition shared a video of 1,000 feet of track recently being removed on Mighty Canadian Minebuster. Retracking in recent years has not helped this roller coaster much. I do not know who is performing the retracking on Mighty Canadian Minebuster during this off-season, but I hope the process is successful and makes it more enjoyable!
  21. On Monday, the first pieces of track were installed! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18XmE34y8R/
  22. As a regular to the park, I would suggest visiting in May or June as school is still in around here, making the park not too busy. If you cannot visit in May or June, then I would suggest visiting the middle of the week (Tuesday or Wednesday) in July or August as they tend to be the least busiest days of the week during the summer months.
  23. The supports for AlpenFury have began to rise! It will be interesting walking through International Festival once the construction has been completed and the park is open in the Spring! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/15tg578kSe/
  24. It's crazy to see how much snow they received in a short period of time. I also like seeing parks during the off-season.
  25. Waldameer received a ton of snow recently! The park posted some photos of the rides covered in the snow! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/FG1ZZ4y7Q86ZfPPn/
