Fire2box Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Is SFMM partnered with Lifetime now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Monte Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 If SFMM finds themselves looking for a large ride on a budget for their 20th, I'd suggest they keep up their recent relationships with either RMC or Premier Rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithPlus1 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 ^^I think I could see them getting a Superloop and counting it as their 20th "coaster" too. Especially considering so many other parks across the chain are getting one next year and they're counting them as coasters. This is definitely a SFMM type move.

WFChris Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 ^I know you're just trying to be funny and hate on SFMM because it's cool here, but how is that exactly a 'SFMM' move? They do count their kids rides in their coaster count, but they have never tried to promote them like something they aren't. SFMM typically builds innovative and unique rides, and I don't really see them going with a cookie cutter ride or something small and lame for their 20th. Sure, they have built some WTF coasters in the past, but they usually turn out pretty cool and thrilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Monte Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Yeah, I have to admit SFMM rarely follows what the rest of the chain is doing, for better or worse. It's given them a rather unique coaster collection compared to the other parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSum1_55 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 ^^Well, considering that I could see any park in the chain doing exactly that (all other super loops are being advertised as coasters), then I guess it would still be somewhat stereotypical of this park. However, what would be very stereotypical of this park would be to build a short ride that breaks some sort of record. But honestly, if TC even lives up to half my expectations, I would not really care if any future additions over the next decade were gimmicky or falsly advertised.

Bubba Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 But honestly, if TC even lives up to half my expectations, I would not really care if any future additions over the next decade were gimmicky or falsly advertised. Exactly how I feel. Every since Texas Giant I've been wanting to ride one of these so bad & now one is actually coming to Cali. I'm more than grateful & I'll be happy with any addition the next few years. I can still see them adding something decent though as this isn't exactly a "new" ride, though I definitely consider it one. I feel like they've actually done a good job at addressing the crappier portions of their rollercoasters these past few years, they might want to add another 1.

singemfrc Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Forget a new coaster, I'll be happy if they just throw some paint at Scream and Tatsu. I think Scream might actually get some before TC opens since new train parts have been showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I legit see world's tallest Giga. It would be from B&M. I'm hearing they may remove viper and put in a Giga or at least a hyper. This is only a rumor and may be years away. Also I'm hearing the sky tower repairs of the elevator may be too high a cost to govern reopening it any time soon.

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 We're getting an RMC hybrid and you guys are complaining about what their next coaster might be? I agree that after TC opens, I don't really care if what comes next isn't something super exciting. Hoping today at the park won't be too busy and X2 will be open long enough for me to ride it! It's been a while since my last few visits it was closed (or like last time, I missed it because it closed for some time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbatboy Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Why would MM get another hyper? And I don't see Six Flags spending the $$$ for a giga either... I hope the next ride is one of those GG shuttle woodies. But I'll just enjoy TC until then, I'm sure it will bring in enough revenue where they wouldnt need to add anything for a few years.

Manic Monte Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 LOL... I feel like that Giga for Viper rumor has been around longer than the Knotts version. I agree that TC will hold me over for a good while. I'd like to see the park focus on other things for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm hearing the sky tower repairs of the elevator may be too high a cost to govern reopening it any time soon. ...And that's why SFMM will always be SFMM. The Sky Tower is basically their icon. And there's a possibility they will again just let it rot away. Really hope that rumor isn't true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJeXeL Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 ^Agreed. Sky Tower doesn't have the highest amount of guest traffic by any means but I do agree that it most definitely is an icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singemfrc Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 This is why, especially with Twisted Colossus going up already, I would be so much happier if the following year was just paint and repairs. Fix the Sky Tower, paint Scream, paint Tatsu, and shine things up. I can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSum1_55 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yes. After TC, I would be so happy if they spend the entire next decade adding no new rides, just focusing on park repairs only. The addition of TC is exactly what is park needs to round up its coaster lineup, so after that they should just stop building coasters entirely and focus on making a guests day great while he is not on a coaster.

Brassinthegrass Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I'm not sure SFMM needs a giga... It seems kind of redundant to have a Giga and Goliath... I know the CW and Carowinds argument with both having a hyper and giga... But the reality is that they both have an airtime filled hyper and a speed filled Giga... Goliath is king of a mix of both; and at 255 ft, kind of sits in the middle.. I could see them building the first 400ft traditional, possibly on the south side of the property? How far out does the park own? SFMM is definitely a park I've been thinking about with their future, they have amost every style of coaster... It's hard to see what direction there going to go in...

What I expect: 2016- Kiddie Coaster 2017- Removal of a major ride 2018- Small coaster addition + refurbishing of an old coaster 2019- nothing 2020- Park closes What I hope for: 2016: Focus on repainting rides, redo theming, improve ride operations, improve marketing 2017: 2 Crazy innovative flat rides that the GP will love 2018: Worlds tallest coaster, who wouldn't want to visit the park? 2019: Nothing 2020: Everyone complains about the park being a mess again.
