chickenbowl Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 So is there proof this will be an Intamin? I'm almost certain this will be a Mack. Hahaha, it's Intamin... Mack doesn't even have a motobike style coaster line (like Intamin, Zamperla, or Vekoma). If you're saying Mack because SeaWorld has recently worked with Mack (all the JTA's, Cobra's Curse, Manta), I'll point out that they've also worked with Intamin (Cheetah Hunt, Falcon's Fury). They've also worked with B&M, Premier, GCI, Zierer, and Moser in the past 5 years as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_koppen Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Awesome! Really happy for all of you guys in the US for getting this ride. The Intamin jetski/ATV-coaster is seriously one of the absolute best family-thrill coaster there is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 This is an awesome addition for the park! Honestly, this coaster should have been put in to Orlando instead of Mako. You guys now have two, major, 48" height requirement rides and Orlando has none. Can't wait to come out and ride this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWO can be tough for families with small children as all three of the major coasters have 54" height requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 ^Yeah, well San Antonio doesn't have Wild Arctic, so advantage Orlando................................(said no one ever). Looks like a great addition and a very clever marketing move by Sea World. Still hoping to get down to Texas in the RV next year to hit up all the parks down there!

LiftThrill Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Now I'll actually have a reason to go. I live about a half hour away but have never been. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Now I'll actually have a reason to go. I live about a half hour away but have never been. Can't wait! So Steel Eel wasn't enough of a reason to go to a park 30 minutes away but a family coaster is? Also the animals alone are enough of a reason to go to Sea World.

LiftThrill Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I've been wanting to go for quite a while but haven't had the money or a valid excuse over SFFT (where I have a season pass) or ZDT's (which is super cheap). If I had the choice I would have been to SWSA already, but with the addition of a new coaster it pushes it over the edge. Many of my park buddies are Blackfish weirdos but will probably ignore that for a unique coaster type only a half hour away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some buddies like that too but it doesn't stop me from visiting on my own. I have a season pass to SWSA only for Steel Eel tbh. It's a lot of fun! Aquatica isn't bad either!

johnnyknottsville Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Yay for Intamin and those hills and drops after the launches looks awesome also love that it looks to be almost entirely over water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys now have two, major, 48" height requirement rides and Orlando has none. Whoa -- really? I hadn't done much research into SWO, so if that's the case, I'll definitely be saving the trip there for several years down the line. The big kid's just barely scraping onto 48" rides at the moment. Sounds like if we want to do a SeaWorld in the near future, this will be the one to hit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 ^Yup. Orlando has three big 54" B&M's, a kiddie coaster, and a water coaster (that's 42" I believe). A 48" coaster would be AWESOME in Orlando. Hopefully we'll get a clone of this ride in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper39 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 ^Yeah, I feel like Cobra's Curse and Mako went to the wrong parks in a way. Then again this wave rescue jet ski coaster might be a better addition to Seaworld in the future than the Mack spinner anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
