  1. Looks like Marineland and the Town of Niagara is expanding Amusement Insiders posted a video talking about the expansion, here are some notes from that video The Town of Niagara is planning The town of Niagara said that Marineland is an important aspect for Niagara Falls Tourism and they're gonna rely on investing into the park and in such get the park to year round operation and all day fun Changing height limit in some areas from 10 stories to 30 stories Planning a people mover that connects all the Casinos and tourist attractions Marineland By 2031 Marineland will be a completely different park Planning an onsite hotel when the park goes year round and all day starting a rapid expansion plan and, "There are alot of attractions coming along with it." "There will a be a roller coaster that's going to fit in this expansion plan, sometime sooner that later." Will most likely receive city funding for the expansion The hotel will most likely be 10 stories with 150 rooms to 30 stories with 232 rooms (We don't know exactly but around there for height and rooms)
  2. Looks like American Dream is getting a couple new kiddie flat rides -We have a Zamperla Speedway that looks like a clone or similar to Zooma's Zoomer, a Paw Patrol ride at Movie Park Germany -According to someone from Reddit who went to Nick Uni (Photo is from him) he saw, "a mini jungle looking swing ride. It’s already put in place, just boxed off from everything. You can see it clear as day." Link for the Jungle swing comment Link to the photo of the new ride
  3. The thing is this isn't the first time the leg thing happened, there is a photo out there were a dude didn't have his legs secured in the restraint and the ride ops still dispatched the train onto the lift. Great Adventure employees are trained to kick the leg flaps, I also know Great Adventure was strict with cameras and he complained at that time, he also complained majorly (At that time) of the El Toro Locker Policy. I remember when his friend group went to Japan it was constant complaining about how the parks assigned seating and how Japanese parks did there own thing unlike the US. The one that made me stop watching him is on Phoenix he was really upset when the park was doing assigned seating and got a middle row and decided to fight to get back row (This was during the pandemic). He also got cancelled for other stuff, I hate how people like this guy is an influence in the coaster community, there are only a couple coaster youtubers that I have respect for. (Theme Park Crazy,El Toro Ryan) (Sorry for any spelling errors)
  4. Phoenix Coming to Deno's Wonder wheel park (Date/year not announced yet) In an interview with USA Today Deno “DJ” Vourderis, a third-generation member of the family that owns and operates the park announced Phoenix https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/3957029001?__twitter_impression=true This Vekoma Family Invert is 68 feet tall and travel at a speed of 34 mph. This family invert will deliver thrills, but it will be accessible to younger children and those who might be intimidated by bigger, faster rides. The name, Phoenix, represents the sensation of flight that the suspended coaster will deliver. Its trains will hang beneath the tracks, and passengers will soar through the course on floorless, ski lift-like cars with their feet dangling. But, according to Vourderis, the name also signifies rebirth Vourderis also Said, “When this (pandemic) is all over, I think we will have another Roaring '20s,” he says. “We will most certainly rise from the ashes and give birth to the best of times at Coney Island.” This coaster was intended for the parks 100th anniversary which has been delayed
  5. Finally, it's been too long since this park has gotten some love. A county shouldn't be operating a park, it took so long just to get a new ride.
  6. Ski lift's are a lot of fun to operate, especially when you have the Jerry's. I have only operated a carpet life within my department of Children's ski instructing
  7. How is working Big Snow? Know a couple former coworkers that now work Big Snow
  8. The layout for Space Factory Coaster at Yomiuriland has been unveiled! The first Gerstlauer invert is sure to be fun for all ages! It has a surprising amount of track inside the building!
  9. Today a news segment aired on the Construction of the park, Pretty interesting how the park puts Miniland together, the park looks pretty good compared to a couple weeks ago.
  10. Looking at Legoland Dubai the park was in Previews in October,A couple months earlier it looked the same. They where def a month or two behind, but they where probably gonna put more construction workers on site. Remember rn that there is limited construction workers on site.
  11. I really love how you can retrofit it! Im really hoping that they don't put the 4d cars on the Smaller Shot Towers. The smaller the shot tower the better the ride is! I would love to see this on a shot and drop!
  12. Looked through Forums, this is the apparent layout to the Maurer Spinner Coaster
  13. I just found a video from Amusement Insider's and Im surprised no one is talking about Marineland. According to the video, the Zierer Starshape, and Family Drop tower (The park has one already but it was getting old) was supposed to be built last week, but the Canadian Government decided last minute to not allow the German Engineers to built the ride even though the engineers quarantined for 2 weeks and everyone that was going to the during construction came back negative. Looks like there is big construction taking place at the park and the future might be big for the park and there is land clearing on where the bird sanctuary that was planned before being canceled by the wife after the husband died.
  14. Cyclone is easily not going anywhere, its just the others rides and businesses
  15. The 2 parks at Coney Island are at big risk for closing, I have a feeling Deno's Wonder wheel Park, and Luna Park. Deno's spent 5.5 Million to expand the park and buy more land, then spent "$6 million to commission a splashy new European thrill ride of an undisclosed type." According to this article https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/07/realestate/coronavirus-coney-island-wonder-wheel.html Inside Edition filmed an Interview and you can hear in there voices on how financially unstable they probably are with the park. (Also Zamperla closed down Victorian Gardens and relocated the rides to Luna) I am so scared for the Coney Island Businesses, I will be so sad if Deno's or Luna has to close. That would be the start of a domino effect on Coney Island Businesses.
  16. I'm thinking about going to DreamWorks. I'm assuming you still have to pay for a Locker, also how is the food situation? Same as Nickelodeon?
  17. Space Factory construction update Looks like the track will be finished soon Speculation of the manufacturer is Gerstlauer because of the shaping of the supports
  18. Looks Really Good! This is the area the park really needed!
  19. Funplex Myrtle Beach Funplex Myrtlebeach is a park with just SBF rides. The park is going on 1406 Withers Dr, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577 and will be replacing an old parking lot. The Funplex CEO that owns 2 other Funplex locations in East Hanover,and Mount Laurel NJ Said,"“It’ll be a small amusement park that you can stay in for a few hours and keep yourself busy,” Williams said. “It’s a tight footprint, but we’re trying to provide the best experience we can by trying to reach as many people with the rides.We’ve been operating for 23 years, and we’ve developed our parks in a really, really thoughtful way,” Williams said. “It’s a small piece of land, but we’re going to do a really nice job with it.” The park will be a bigger version of the mini SBF park we saw at IAAPA 2019,with the Hampster Wheel Coaster Funplex Myrtle Beach will include SBF Rides-Teacup,Toys Swing,Reverse Time,Drop'N Twist,Big Air Coaster,Space Gun,and Tower Planes The SBF Tower Planes is a new concept from SBF that has not been announced by SBF yet. From an Interview with Coaster101 with the CEO of Funplex,said,"Yes, it is the coaster from IAAPA 2019. We thought having a different “action” with the Hamster Wheel cars would be a difference maker."
