Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread

What would make this ride even better is theming! Hope Cedar Fair will put some effort of theming into this ride because it's going to be the greatest!

 

Hopefully they will have a cool statue at the entrance similar to Dragon Fire and Wild Beast. That would be awesome! I read on CWmania that the entire plaza/area will get a nice facelift. It should look quite nice

Canada's Wonderland confirmed they would have a few "suprises" in store for the new Leviathan area along with the re-theming of the building and facades in Medieval Faire for 2012.

Thats what I suspected. I'm going to guess rising waters will be moved/taken out because of the crowds/new entrance it won't really fit. I can't wait to see these "surprises".

Does anyone happen to have a picture of the statue that is in front of Dragon Fire? I've seen the one in front of Wild Beast, and am wondering what the Dragon Fire one looks like.

I really hope they never decide to paint these.

 

Anyways, I was very pleased with the Marketplace renovation, so I believe that with just a couple more things, like retheming Drop Tower, Riptide and the On Location stand (to a fruit stand, lol), do a pirate show on Arthur's Baye, even going as far as playing renaissance-type music, Medieval Faire could be a well-themed area.

I know I mentioned this before but watch this video below of the awesome mid-night Disney World show:

 

 

WHO EVER AGREES THAT WONDERLAND SHOULD MAKE STARLIGHT SPECTACULAR LIKE THAT SAY "I"!!!

[Intimidator305]

^ Don't get ahead of yourself, the show that Wonderland puts on already is FANTASTIC for Cedar Fair.

[Dom497]

^i know....I liked starlight a lot and hope it comes back this year. All I was saying was if starlight could reach the level of disney (fireworks, pictures of people at the park (I made a original post about this a few months ago),etc..)

HUGE Leviathan update from CWMania!

 

Many more pictures (AND VIDEOS!) here.

Station

CW guests will soon be welcomed by a new B&M masterpiece

Hammerhead

HEAD CHOPPER!

Future photo-op??!

This is gonna make one welcoming entrance!

[Carnage]

The hammerhead looks odd from that angle.

[kunpc1]

^It looks odd from almost every angle, lol. I guess the important part isn't the look, it's the way it rides!

[Ace Of Spades]

The hammerhead looks odd from that angle.

Agreed. Actually, the whole ride has some strange shaping. Should be interesting to see how it rides!

[mightypotato]

The hammerhead looks odd from that angle.

 

Kinda reminds me of the Nitro hammerhead/turnaround

 

[belo777]

Wow, those the two hammerheads are very similar. How tall is Nitro's hammerhead compared too this ones?

[Bryce232]

Levi's hammerhead is much larger and more angled than Nitro's 180 turn. Hopefully this helps clear up any curiosity:

[coasterfreak101]

Yeah, those two hammerheads are completely different. Levi's is more or less a mix of the egg turns on the flyers and the normal hyper hammerhead. With some really awkward banking thrown in for good measure.

[belo777]

Oh, yes. From that angle they are MUCH different. Thank you for posting that.

[rolercstrluvr]

They just posted a bunch of new photos to the construction album on facebook, including a sneak peek at the trains.

 

[eddie200330]

The turnaround posted above for Leviathon kinda reminds me of the old "cutback" element on BG's Drachen Fire.

[kunpc1]

The first train is on site. The second train will arrive in February. And the third train will arrive in March.

I bet one of those seats would make a helluva lawn chair.

[cal1br3tto]

^Hell, I'd even put the lap bar down. They're sooo comfy.

[kunpc1]

I bet one of those seats would make a helluva lawn chair.

 

Maybe I can convince the park to order an extra "test seat" for me just for that purpose!

[mightypotato]

I've always said that I could easily use a B&M hyper seat as a chair in my living room. More comfy than a recliner.

Now THIS is a picture that shows all the weird angles on Leviathan's hammerhead!
