Has anyone else here noticed there was no future attraction survey like many of the other parks in the chain got? Did I miss it or did they really just not release a similar survey? I'm started to grow concerned that they are just still going to refuse to invest more into this park. It's such a self defeating cycle to not build more but then blame a lack of crowds for the lack of ability to do so. Like, yeah... they kinda have to build more to earn more in the first place. That's what gets people to come and spend money. I just don't understand the thought process behind the management there at the park when it comes to what seems like a lack of any future plans for the park beyond the bare minimum.

Has anyone else noticed throughout the past season how much rougher Ride of Steel has felt? I don't even remember it feeling that bad last year. Did something happen to the ride that I'm not aware of?

While I get Six Flags doesn't own the park directly, isn't it still part of the Six Flags chain since they manage the park? I think it could be a good opportunity for them to relocate something like Joker's Jink to the park since they still manage it at least.

Does anyone know how much more of predator is getting titan track next year? Also, any rumors going around about what Darien Lake might get from SFA closing beyond new trains for Ride of Steel? I feel like I rarely hear from this park compared to some other parks. lol

Not sure how truthful this is, but Screamscape mentioned in their post on SFA other stuff that could happen to other parks according to his "sources". So again, take this with a massive grain of salt. With that said, he said that the parks under management contracts could potentially see Six Flags pull out of their respective contracts. This obviously includes Darien Lake. Anyone know more on how truthful this could end up being? If it is true, I doubt we'll see any ride relocations from SFA.

Is there a chance that the closing of Six Flags America will impact Six Flags Darien Lake at all? Is it a sign that the new Six Flags will leave their management lease with Darien Lake? Or will they take it as an opportunity to take a couple rides from SFA and relocate them to Darien Lake, maybe even one of the coasters to prop up Darien Lake instead? I know this is all speculation but I am genuinely curious to see if anyone here knows anything or has any theories on how Darien will be impacted.

Agreed! Also, are they still calling it Mind Eraser or is the park going to rename it?

Also, is there more titan track being added to Predator this year as well? I'm not sure what their current goal is with Predator.

Is there no evidence of track reprofiling as part of the refurbishment?

Is there anything new at all on whether or not new rides and / or a new mildly themed area is going to accompany the refurbishment of Mind Eraser?

I couldn't find another thread on here about this for some reason, so here we go. I was wondering if there are any good roller coaster tour groups for adults in the USA. I was only able to find a tour group for teens and a tour group in Europe. Neither apply to me or what I'm looking for. So, if anyone has any good ideas on where to find a good tour group for roller coasters in the USA for adults, that would be amazing! Anyone got ideas?

So, I just visited this park for my first time around a month ago right before hurricane Ian hit. To my surprise, Manta ended up being my favorite coaster there and not Mako (still a good ride though) like I was expecting. Does anyone else feel the same way about Manta? That thing is legit amazing!

I just realized I forgot to give an update after asking for advice on visiting the park about a month ago. So, I went right before hurricane Ian hit Florida and, to be honest, I still feel torn on whether or not I like this park or Hersheypark more. Regardless, Iron Gwazi is my new favorite coaster and I actually fit into it surprisingly well. On another note, Montu is easily the second best coaster in the park. That thing is amazing! Overall, it was a good visit and a good park!

So, now with Six Flags going down the path that it is lately, is SFDL just going to stagnate now in regards to additions? Like, how bad is it going to be for the next decade or so? Also, is it now confirmed the Warner Bros. IPs are never coming to the park?

How likely is the shuttle loop to open next year tho?
