The new colors really do look good in person. I'm definitely in the Rougarou is definitely something nice to look forward to for next year camp!

[coasterbill]

I'm way more excited for this ride than I should be. I just can't believe they're actually doing this... it has the potential to start a great trend and any trend that leads to less stand up coasters is an awesome one.

The paint job is looking very good! But please rotate your pictures next time

 

Hopefully, the trim brake removal happens. Either way, this is still going to be a great improvement!

[detigerfan]

Soooooooo much better than red yellow and blue.

The new colors are looking great! Maybe the trim will go after all!! Then again... Maybe it will stay. Hmmmm... Only time will tell!

I started looking at this page and wasn't getting the sideways Nina at all. But then I went back to the previous page. . . .

I did rotate them but for some reason they didn't show up that way when I posted them. Oh well.

 

The colors really look great and I can't wait for this ride once it's done!

Thanks for posting. Sorry these guys are acting so immature. I wish we can be serious and focus on a more serious matter.

 

Anyway, can anyone confirm the rumor that Snake River falls was originally designed with a cobra roll but the State of Ohio would not approve?

I like the new colors because they're something new and different. But I will have to say I liked the old ones better. Bizarre as the colors may have been, the red, yellow, and purple really POPPED, and I thought that was a great look. The orange looks okay too but it looks a bit...drab. It doesn't draw attention like the old colors did.

[CPmillenia94]

^I agree. I don't mind the new colors, but I wish it was still two different track colors so that the twistyness would be more apparent..

[gerstlaueringvar]

I think orange paint is the cheapest, maybe CP repaint it just because they want the GP to see Rougarou as a brand new coaster. If they keep the old color scheme, some of the Mantis hating GP will not come and ride it again...

 

I prefer the old color as well.

Me too, especially as that's a common thing with CF's B&Ms.

Excuse me? Flight Deck, Afterburn, Intimidator, Diamondback, Banshee, Vortex (Carowinds), Behemoth, and Dominator would like to have a word with you!

I think he means the actual track, not including the supports. All the coasters you listed have one primary track color, just a different support color.

[grsupercity]

The old colors of Mantis always reminded me of a poor mans superman haha

[hey...hey]

^Never thought of that, but I see what you mean.

[Swede]

Me too but in a good way. Even the logo had this Marvel 70's-feel to it.

[StuckInSD]

^I've always thought of Mantis' colors as a rejected X-Men ride.
