Swornenemy Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Ok I got. Twisted Sisters. The ride will be based on Dee Snider and his band Twisted Sister. Nothing says yolo like Dee Snider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generic Name Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 It'll be called Quick U-Turn. You heard it here first folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmaster562 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I find it just a little bit curious that the words "Dueling" and "Colossus" are so close to each other... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBrylczyk Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Dueling Colossus. Why? Well, this is Six Flags, they've really got two types of ride names lately. Either thinly-veiled racism (Zumanjaro, Kingda Ka) or blatantly obvious (Iron Rattler, New Texas Giant). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKings908 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Has anyone tried using the initials of known names associated with the park's history to get a result? For example, after remembering the park was using call backs to National Lampoon's Vacation in those photo props, my mom and I used Chevy Chase's initials and got "California Colossus."

UrbanLegend Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I know it's short notice, but is anyone in SoCal willing to go to SFMM tomorrow? I bought found tickets and we have three people so far. I'm subsidizing a ticket plus FlashPass Gold, so it'll be $70. Let me know if you're interested. We're leaving from West Hollywood.

Rollercoaster Rider Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Dueling Colossus. Why? Well, this is Six Flags, they've really got two types of ride names lately. Either thinly-veiled racism (Zumanjaro, Kingda Ka) or blatantly obvious (Iron Rattler, New Texas Giant). Maybe it's me but I never thought of Zoomanjaro or Kingda Ka as racist names.

willh51 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Dueling Colossus is my guess. Iron Colossus is apparently out. Either that or SFMM has fooled us all, is going to demo the ride and we get Zero Colossus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega_Coaster_77 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I think the California Colossus sounds like a great name for the ride. I hope they do the same for the Cyclone at SFNE and make it the Riverside Cyclone or New England Cyclone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPSFMMCW Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 My surprised they didn't put "Iron" for "i" to trick us. But if that's out, then i'm betting California Colossus. Actually not a half bad name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lk2500 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I'm surprised that nobody has noticed the obvious...... It will totally be called Yahoo Launch. That way we will have YOLO coaster and YaLa coaster. Boom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xmeister Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I hope when (if) the ride opens in it's new incarnation, they take the structure's lighting effects to a whole new level. Maybe LEDs or something. Hell if they figure out how to do projection the projection style effects like Disney does on Cinderella Castle, maybe they could make the structure look like it's wrapped in the logo of whichever sponsor is footing the bill for the ride that month!
