steel Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I seem to remember using the entire queue for PBLC once. That was a nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I know, that ride has such low ridership that even the line if it is back behind the waterfall is around 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holyblakbelt Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 When they announced the Nickolodeon takeover of The Park at MOA, they did announce that the Eurofighter was going to be Avatar: The Last Airbender themed. Now with the S&S drop tower, I think that it could be Spongebob themed, but it can be anything else (maybe not even a theme). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XII Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think the drop towers going to be a clone of Detonator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 No. It's probably only gonna be one tower. They're gonna start construction late summer early fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticky Nicky Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Um..... IM pretty sure that, actually 100% sure, that CEDAR FAIR NO LONGER RUNS THIS PARK so I have no idea what you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 If Cedar Fair hasnt used any of the chains usual names, i doubt they will start now Of course, you mean other than than Power Tower, Corkscrew, Steel Venom, Thunderhawk, and Dominator? And Sticky Nicky is right, MOA hasn't been owned by CF for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topdrag Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Also an S&S tower would be way to loud in the mall. They are probably looking a other company's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.gumbo Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Ahh! I wish I could hear news like this for metroland (English indoor park at Metro center, 3 miles from my house ), the only news we have for it is its closure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, please, PaMoA is already the loudest place in the upper midwest. An S&S tower would actually be quiet compared to everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they could plant the base of the tower underground kind of like how the one in West Edmonton Mall is. They should plant the air takes inside the log mountain.

Calvin Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I have to wonder. What will become of the Paul Bunyan's Log Chute? I would hate to see such a great ride go to waste. One word: beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfie Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 And a new roller coaster is planned based on the animated series, "Avatar: The Last Airbender." WORST. IDEA. EVER. They're totally going to screw up this awesome Euro-Fighter with a crappy Nickelodeon show?!?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, please, PaMoA is already the loudest place in the upper midwest. An S&S tower would actually be quiet compared to everything else. While the park is subjectively loud, all the rides are actually extremely quiet. For comparison, the Gerstlauer outdoor spinners are practically silent, while indoors it is the loudest ride in the park. S&S Towers can be heard several hundred feet away outdoors, it would be, by far, the loudest thing in the park. Based on the location of the new drop ride, I can tell you not to expect anything big. I think most of you will be shocked to see where they plan on squeezing it in. I would expect a ride with a seating arrangement similar to a Frog Hopper. The biggest thing I could possibly see installed there would be something along the lines of an ARM Super Shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loco Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I still think this "drop tower" will be something like Slingshot at Adventuredome in Las Vegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Fan Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Froghopper style? - Moser Spring maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastercameron Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Bigger... but this isn't going to be a multi-tower 150+ft extravaganza some people on here have their minds set on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can disprove you about S&S towers being too loud, as Triple Five's other in-mall amusement park, Galaxyland has one [my home park] and I can assure you that it is perfectly quiet. All there is is a loud rush of air, and it's not even that bad. By the way, yes, Galaxyland and The Park At MOA are both owned by the same company. Did I mention it's 128 feet high?
