thrillseeker4552 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 ^^ My thoughts exactly. What's so bad about sharing a new park map with fellow coaster enthusiasts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Password121 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 ^He said he was editing it. I don't think he has the actual park map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aCoasterStory Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 ^^ & ^^^^ Â Agreed. It's just a flipping map...I'm not even sure why people make that big of a deal out of these things as it is. Â But if you people really want to see it, look at the middle school and high school workbooks: Â https://www.visitkingsisland.com/youth-sales/education-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 ^ Thanks for that link! Â I really like the way Cedar Fair does their maps. They are creative and fun to look at, yet accurate at the same time. I'm glad they changed Flight Deck (Bat) to orange on the map when they re-painted it. Â Boomerang on the Knott's map is still blue, even though the coaster has been repainted two different colors after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondbacker27 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Wow. I never realized how much room there was for expansion behind diamondback, I wish my school would do this. They might be just a little cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 They do have a lot of room, but you can't use a cartoon style park map as a legitimate representation of the property layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 They have a lot more room than the map is showing, Behind Banshee. Behind Windseeker, Beast, diamondback etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Straight from the workbooks. Enjoy. Â Â Is that a tent-like structure in the former action zone circle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 From the map it does look like some kind of gazebo or tent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 ^ Perhaps similar to what they did in the gatekeeper plaza area... when they put up that tent structure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterStreak Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Straight from the workbooks. Enjoy. Â Â It's interesting to see that the old Crypt building isn't on the map anymore. I know it's closed, but it was on last year's map even though it was closed then too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glouthan Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 The map looks nice. I like how there is a wide variety of colors (D-back = red, Banshee = purple, Bat = orange, etc...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prozach626 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Wow. I never realized how much room there was for expansion behind diamondback, I wish my school would do this. They might be just a little cheap  I would imagine that area will mostly be reserved for future water park expansions.  The more I look at banshee, the more I feel like it may be one of the best looking B&M's ever constructed. Speaking purely from an aesthetic point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJeXeL Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Jealous! They must be still deciding on the proper combination of nylon/polyurethane wheels to use thus why there's only wheel covers on the 1st 2 cars. Â Greg Scheid Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alilstronger Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 It looks like such a beautiful coaster. I love the colors they chose and am happy the went with the newer kind of restraints. Â Lets hope I get up to the park in the next few seasons and get to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmerleeberry Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Oh Yeah!!! My first week in June getaway is looking to be one awesome trip. Besides visiting Kings Island, I will first be visiting Holiday World and Kentucky Kingdom. If you can imagine all those rides, both wet and dry rides, is it any wonder I'll be either all rode out or all washed up or maybe both. Â In other words - another satisfied rider and amusement park flyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
