^^Yeah, but they went bankrupt in 2001 after Titan at SFOT and closed three years later, which really stinks because Anaconda looks SWEET!! -

No. This entire thread is about a coaster that doesn't exist. The thread was made to confuse someone in hopes that they would bump it a decade later to see if the coaster that everyone was talking about for 3 pages actually exists since that makes way more sense than performing a 2 second Google search which would answer your question. Edit: Or checking RCDB, the website that was linked in the post right before yours. Okay, not trying to be rude, but I did not need that sarcasm. I performed that little Google Search and found this link below. And it turns out Anaconda was indeed a Giovanola ride. -

So when people say Giovanola made only 2 coasters, that's just in the US, right? -
Top/Favorite Hyper Coasters
sfriday1998 replied to boldikus's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have very little experience here, so humor me on my list: *Note: I included any coaster 200-299ft tall I have ridden as a hyper just to extend my count.* 1. Superman: The Ride (SFNE) 2. Valravn (CP) 3. Magnum XL-200 (CP) 4. Wicked Twister (CP) -
The "Say Something Random" Thread

It's a statement of fact. Brown's my top choice, but that is NOT a rant by any means. Currently I'm on the border of nervousness and confidence. College is a big deal...... -

Whats The Weather Like Where You Live?

I have never ridden any GCIs, so I have no authority there. Out of all of my Intamin credits, I honestly have to say Wicked Twister at Cedar Point. I would ride it again, its good. But, since I have few Intamin credits, it isn't so high on my list I only have 2 B&M credits, and out of those, the lesser one was Batman: The Dark Knight at SFNE. Great ride, but second to CP Raptor.

Three closest parks near you
sfriday1998 replied to mike541x's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I chill up in Massachusetts, so: -Six Flags New England -Canobie Lake Park -Lake Compounce All are a 2-3 hour drive from my place. I visited SFNE and Lake Compounce this past season, but haven't been to Canobie Lake for about four years. -
The court revoked the original building permit - the reason being that a more extensive environmental impact study should have been made before the permit was given - and the coaster will be closed until Kolmården can find a solution (or worst case scenario be forced to tear it down). In relation to your petition comment: https://www.change.org/p/kolmarden-permit-board-save-wildfire-at-kolmarden

Wildfire is technically SBNO too due to the permit issues (man 2016 has not been a good year for European woodies...) Oh, right, forgot that "Team Green" has found a way to deny pleasure for normal humans. Well, in that case, I'll pick number 3 (and my personal favorite) from the list: El Toro! Please, someone tell me this one is still operating... Yes it is. And also, what's the problem with Wildfire????

GCG is literally right across from Superman. It's not near the entrance of Mind Eraser and Batman at all. The ride could run but why open it? It's sort of like Bizarro at Great Adventure. I'm sure it could run but it's not worth opening all of the paths necessary to open it and paying to decorate and staff all of those areas. Look, so far every regional Holiday event closes off sections of the park. The obvious thing to close here would be the DC area. There are a ton of stairs and ramps to salt if it snows which is probably a bit of a liability anyway and it's super easy to close off by cutting just 2 paths. Look at what Six Flags America did. I guarantee you that if SFNE did a Holiday event, the DC area would be closed. Okay, now I understand. At any rate, SFNE isn't even doing HITP. They're closed until April.

Hey, don't knock em. Those carnival flats can be some damn good coasters! Fixed. Looking at you, Superloops. Larsons give crazy hang time. I grayed out on the SFNE Fireball -

Who wants to wager it was one of the following: A) B&M trains for Magnum (There, I said it) B) Maybe confirming the RMC purchase C) Coaster #18 (It's #18 because Mean Streak is being RMCed, so the park still technically has 17 coasters, so a new one would make it 18) Also, if it's coaster 18, my thoughts: Please be RMC T-Rex, Please be RMC T-Rex, Please be RMC T-Rex, Please be RMC T-Rex... -

Whoops my bad. In that case, change "retrack" to "new B&M trains" -

sfriday1998 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Eh, give it a couple years. Probably going to give it a B&M retrack a la Steel Dragon 2000, but definitely not get rid of it. It's too iconic -
Trust me, you're better off that way. Bill hates standups, and that's cool. Everybody has their own opinions. I personally thought Riddler's Revenge at Magic Mountain was pretty good. So I'd say give one a try, if you're at a park that has one, and see what you think. If you hate it, then don't ride another one. But I'd give it a shot; I'm one that always values a new experience. I'm going to Great Adventure this summer. What about Green Lantern?
