^ and if they build a B&M flyer with purple track it could be a Flying Purple People Eater.

[StuckInSD]

^ And if they shorten the trains to 4 cars and reduce capacity to one seat, it can be a One-Seat, Four-Car, Flying Purple People Eacter.

It would be great if La Ronde bought it to put near Ednor. That way they can have an invert and stand up at both sides of the park.

What a terrible idea ! We already got enough crappy relocated coasters like that, we don't need another one !

[DarienLaker]

Maybe Seabreeze bought Skyrider, they need a looping coaster!

[MagnumFreak25]

Maybe Strikers Grove?

[DarienLaker]

Maybe Martin's Fantasy Island, don't where they can put it?

[ImNotOneOfYou]

I would actually like to see SkyRider at Dorney Park.

[canadianparkfan]

I actually think it'll stay in Canada. I'm thinking either Vancouver's Playland, or Callaway PPark in Calgary.

If Cedar Fair was planning on relocating it within the chain it wouldn't have ever been listed on that website.

[GwaziBSRider1]

If we're talking parks in the Northeast, maybe Great Escape? It would be a lovely addition there.

[buck funny]

maybe ontario place?

[DarienLaker]

Maybe Marineland if Skyrider is staying in Canada?

[GwaziBSRider1]

^ They've definitely got the space for it there. But of course, they'll have to paint it brown first before they install it!

[rollin_n_coastin]

I see SkyRider fitting in really well at Great Escape or Darien Lake. Nothing wrong with re-located rides if they fit a park.

Cedar Point has taken that name for Mantis' remodel!

^^^ If Six Flags can have 12 Batmans, I'm sure one more Rougarou won't hurt.

Six Flags run more "commercial" that Cedar Fair, so Six Flags strives for quantity over quality while Cedar Fair does it vice versa!

Drop towers are now almost a staple ride at parks.

Unlike Six Flags, Cedar Fair doesn't use the same name twice for existing coasters. More than likely they could reuse the Mantis name since it's no longer being used.

But didn't they re-use Woodstock Express, Vortex, Demon and Flight Deck quite a few times? Just saying.

 

Anyways, I think they might have another mythical beast name for whatever will be taking SkyRider's place. I think it might be called Ziz, since they already have Behemoth and Leviathan in the park (and that would complete the trio).

No they are CALLED Drop Tower as in the actual ride name (they used to be Drop Zone).

[XYZ]

Well, Paramount is the one that called 5 of their drop towers "Drop Zone" and 4 of their coasters "Top Gun".

 

So, it's not entirely Cedar Fair's "fault".

 

Seriously, we all know Six Flags re-uses names a lot more than Cedar Fair.
