Delirium has 32 seats and Firefall has 40 seats, so I'd not expect a 32 seat Air Race to have that bad of a capacity.

[Angry_Gumball]

Boomerang Bay additions...Yes, definitely! One thing I can see happening is a set of mat racers between Rapids and the 2 "Manteca Water Slides" as well as maybe building more off the Didgeridoo Falls tower (Drop capsule slide anyone?) Small waterparks like Sunsplash inspire hope with Boomerang Bay, where space is limited. Sunsplash is the ultimate examle of a "tight fit" water park, where slides are literally piled on top of each other.

Granted, it does depend on the operation of the ride for actual capacity: I'm going off what their website says.

An Air Race and an Aqua Racer would be very satisfactory additions. Even just one of them would still be great. maybe then they could add a drop capsule water slide.

I know what CGA SHOULD do. Remove Demon and install and Intamin water-coaster. Or even better, ask B/M to design a custom water coaster. I wonder how a B/M water coaster would ride.

[cmullin]

^ They already have a splash boats, log flume, and a rapids ride, not to mention a waterpark, and Demon is one of their more classic coasters, so I don't think that's going to happen. They've already got enough water rides anyway.

I was actually thinking remove the splash boats and use that for an expanded Invertigarden ride.

What do you mean by an Invertigarden ride?

[Angry_Gumball]

^Invertigarden is the so-called name that was coined a while back after finding the former Invertigo site was replaced with a garden. It has also been called the "Inverti-grass" and "Inverti-lawn."

[Andrewoplis]

It would be really nice to see a water park expansion, maybe a drop slide tower or a water coaster?

[Angry_Gumball]

So, is snyone going to the Thank You Thursdays event tonight? I will be there once again

[XYZ]

I'm going to Thank You Thursdays again. I can't give up such short wait times for Gold Striker.

[cmullin]

I wish,but I'm leaving for backpacking a few hours before. Urgh

I know waterslides would be kinda nice, but seeing as I don't know many people who go to waterparks, I think that this park will eventually need a new steel coaster. My crazy idea is to replace Action Theater and/or FireFall with a EuroFighter, Intamin MegaLite, or what-have-you, which would expand through Tidal Wave's old space into the Invertigarden.

Boomerang Bay gets very crowded in the summer time, so I could see a new waterslide being very popular.

[Blue Fire Guy]

^ Yeah, the lines at BB can get really insane. A new slide (and I dream for a ProSlide BehemothBowl, Tornado, Tantrum, Topsy-Turvy or a White Water West MegaTube slide, maybe perhaps a Polin slide, anything that uses bizarre geometry) would definitely be a most welcome addition. As others have said before, a new slide tower with drop capsule slides would also be a welcome addition, those things legitimately scare the crap out of me!

[rolercstrluvr]

I'm going to try and be there for the thank you thursday, we'll see how it works out.

[Flagg O'Dim]

Random, crazy speculation in the CGA thread? It must be August.

Wish I could! Gotta sushi date @ 7:30 which will probably bleed into 9 o'clockish. Please be so kind as to steal the line cutters sharpies for me & take pix! This is cut & have your season pass revoked day

[Angry_Gumball]

Drop capsule slides are legitimately freaky yet awesome simultaneously. Lots of slide options out there for Boomerang Bay, and more slides can help spread the insane BB crowds on those hot days.

For Xtreme Skyflyer on Thank You Thursdays, would it still be $10 for one rider by himself?

 

If this is the case, I'm thinking of doing my first skycoaster ride later today.

I'm tempted to fly again, would like to try it in the dark. $10 is a steal!

Gold Striker has its first evacuation today! One of the trains was at the crest of the lift.
