Although my bets are still on a Hyper, I don't think that we should trust these animations. It seems like Cedar Fair is playing games with us to me...

 

EDIT: Reading posts on CWMania, someone remarked that it looks like Patriot.

 

Compare these two pictures;

They are identical, the train is even in the same position.

I doubt it. The picture has little to nothing to do with the actual ride.

 

For example, think about TV commercials. When Darien Lake was flagged, I remember seeing Viper at SFMM being billed as S:Ros. They're just telling you it's a coaster, not that it's a B&M whatever.

I personally believe it's a B&M hyper like the one Universal Japan just got except you'll have to pick your songs from Nickelback, Celine Dion, Alanis Morrisette, or Bryan Adams.

 

As you crest the first airtime hill you can stretch your arms apart and scream "I'm the king of the world!"

 

or

 

You can ask yourself if it's "Ironic" that Canada built a clone of Goliath

 

or

 

....er, uh, nevermind.

 

I would prefer some Matthew Good Band, though.

^What I'm talking about, is that a certain place will have a ride, and halfway across the world, there is the same ride, so they use a photo of it instead of taking their own. Laziness... Like for Tatsu, they used S:UF in some commercial I saw on YouTube. Thing is, they don't have any other B&M flyers except for Air and that Crystal Wings ride. So I understand. But here, using a 3-D rendition of an inverted coaster in Missouri? When they already have a real one? At Canada's Wonderland? It makes no sense?!?!

Yeah, I know. That's basically what I said.

Try setting your computers clock forward to August 27th and then go to the Canada's Wonderland website, and you will see how the animation ends.

 

EDIT: What the?... Set your clocks ahead to past 7:00 AM August 27th, and then go to this URL: http://www2.cedarfair.com/canadaswonderland/

 

You get a completly different coaster, that appears to be a sit-down looper or floorless of some sort...

 

EDIT AGAIN: Actually, set your clock ahead and go to any of the 3 URLs for the CW website, it seems that they have changed the animation again.

No way. They already have a flyer, and building all three like that would run them up to $60 million dollars. Plus, they would get just as many visitors if they just built one ride. It makes much more sense to stretch expansions out over a few years instead of building three world class coasters in one year. Even when Six Flags built multiple coasters in a year, they didn't do something that crazy.
