NO PHYSICS

It's almost like video games aren't 100% reflections of the real world

[nicman]

^I know, I was just joking.

Your strapping yourself to a windmill. Windmills turn faster with more wind. Only difference is a windmill always points into the wind and on this you are changing directions. So your rotation speed wont be consistant unless you know the wind direction and tuck you wings in at the right time. Just a guess though ive never been on it.

No he is not. His name is Surya I ride with him often. He is not to bright has the brain the size of a peanut. Lol

Surya is a pretty awesome guy.

Really passionate about the park and cares about the rides. I work leviathan and he's a great help when I'm grouping and need a single rider lol!

Anyone have word of any ERT/Enthusiast events coming up at CW?

No, I haven't heard of any yet anywhere. You would think there would be one considering the installation of Skyhawk and the park's 35th anniversary.

Just noticed that Google maps updated cw. Must have been updated in June, you can still see the land clearing by Minebuster.

[nicman]

Here is the 3 main construction areas for cw, using the updated Google maps. I am not sure about the blue area though, but it looks like somethings up. For now, I will just call it the construction triangle.

Construction Triangle

The blue area looks like it's the parks boneyard. Basically where they store a bunch of old crap and maybe some Haunt stuff (I'm assuming). They won't put anything in that one. The other 2 though could definitely be expansion areas.

[michaellynn4]

Is the yellow section where the former TOGO stand-up was located?

[nicman]

^yeah, were Skyrider was.

[WonderlandFan]

I think the blue area is all scraps. Last year I noticed that there were Egyptian things back there along with spare metal (Could of been from Pharaoh's Eye or Pharaohs Falls, I don't know though that's from before my time). I think it's scraps from defunct rides.

[Dom497]

Those Google Map images are from last year. Notice that SkyHawk isn't there. If you actually use the Google Earth application there are images from April 2016.

[nicman]

^I am using Google earth in chrome, Skyrider shows up.

download the program, you'll have the old plus new images

[nicman]

^I just downloaded the program, still skyrider.

There's this weird thing you have to do. Click scroll historical imagery on top and slide it all the way forward. It's stupid and it took forever for me to figure that trick out.

[nicman]

^Works, thank you.

[madmax]

So... any updates on Ziz? Apparently gold and lime green track is out in the open at the B&M manufacturing plant in Ohio.

[nicman]

^Yeah, I have seen that track there a while ago, so far there hasn't been much this year, still land clearing around Minebuster and an empty plot of land were Skyrider was. CW does not usually tease a lot such as CP and KI, so I am still thinking for a new coaster.

 

Plus the track looks like Thunderbird track, so it is probably a wing coaster which is a type of coaster rumored for cw.

 

[nicman]

Here is a drive-by of the B&M manufacturing plant:

 

 

In the comments there is a lot of talk about the green track possibly going to cw.

 

Also somebody said that they thought that a new coaster would fit at the front of the park:
