PKI Jizzman Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Kings Island has only added slides when the Beach waterpark (across the street competition ) adds slides. They added a 4 lane mat racer this year. The last time The Beach put in slides? 2004. Kings Islands last slide input? 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillrider Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Unfortunately, I think it's a waterpark addition. I was really hoping for a dark ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillrider Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 If you're a fan of waterparks, sure. I'm more of a coaster person. With that being said, I'm sure it's great for the park......just not so much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ape Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'll most likely still prefer going to the Beach across the road instead despite what this is. The vast open area of concrete is very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarmor Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 ^ I've seen more people take the chicken exit for water slides than roller coasters! Especially those drop box slides . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator305 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) With the same drop-box slide tower complex popping up around the entire chain (WOF, Dorney, KD, Carowinds) and doing very well in each of the parks, I wouldn't be surprised to see the same one here. I guess we'll find out in 10 minutes! KI's water park needs something new. Although I'll probably never visit their Soak City again, it desperately needed new attractions (besides a wave pool) last time it got attention in 2012. I'd say this is a welcomed addition.

thepoint4life23 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I would be really happy with a floor drop water slide. I have been waiting to ride one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrlittle Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I love it if they announced a Proslide water coaster. I just want more of those to be built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOG1991 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I love it if they announced a Proslide water coaster. I just want more of those to be built. I wish pretty much every water park that doesn't already have one would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFOG1991 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 They haven't said anything on social media from what I can tell.. and it's 2:14. I am hoping for someone who was at the announcement to comment on their Facebook or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaMarkSta Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Looks to be the trap door slide complex Cedar Fair keeps installing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Jizzman Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 70ft speed slide complex - the type with drop capsules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator305 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Sounds like it is the same drop-box slide tower complex popping up around the entire chain (WOF, Dorney, KD, Carowinds). Hurricane Heights at KD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFOG1991 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I was hoping it would be something unique to help justify stopping by the park again next season, but that's still a quality addition and I'm sure the majority of the park's customers will love it!

Wingwright Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Is Soak City included with King's Island admission? I feel like I would like water parks a lot more if my local parks didn't charge separately for admission! I never choose to buy water park tickets over the main park.
