TC Ridesalot Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Drop Tower! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I agree, It has to be a drop tower. Now the only question is S&S or *INTAMIN* (Please choose the later). If this is true does it mean the end of Liberty Launch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 Maybe, but that would be a very slim chance considering they already have Liberty Launch. Maybe a 200 ft. Intamin Drop Tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haux Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I agree. Drop tower. But what company? I'm going to say an A.R.M. tower. Those things are insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomNick Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Well, they already have Liberty Launch, so I would think a drop tower would be pretty unlikely. I think a ferris wheel would be great for HW, along with a frisbee-style flat ride (those things just flat out rule!) From a coaster standpoint (although I think it's a bit too early for them to get another one just yet), I would love to see HW get a steel spinning coaster, as it would be the perfect complement to their 3 woodies and the whole family could enjoy it. Just my two cents..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electerik Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Duh, people. August 26, 1883 was the day of the famous Mount Krakatoa eruption. So, clearly, they're building a volcano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyage_luvr Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I honestly don't think it would be a drop tower since they have Liberty Launch. Perhaps a B&M dive coaster. Although I can't see the park getting a coaster that big, maybe a mini diver, or some sort of Intamin coaster. I don't know, but I'm pretty freakin' excited to find out.

CoastersNSich Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Holiday World is indeed getting a new (or used) ride... No, it's not Dorney's Laser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electerik Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 In all seriousness, a drop ride just doesn't sound right. I suppose a new coaster is possible, but there are lots of rides that drop. How about something like a Kangaroo or a Tumbler? (Or even the return of Banshee! ) It doesn't really matter for me. I've already promised my girlfriend that we'll go back next year.

nannerdw Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I hope it's a 32 or 40-seat Screamin' Swing. Do I win a prize if I'm right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love a twisted mind. Can I talk you into posting that educated guess on the HoliBlog? Thanks (either way), Paula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hey did we ever figure out where that mystery dive machine track was going?... It'll probably be some drop ride. Perhaps one even smaller than Liberty Launch for the little kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps one even smaller than Liberty Launch for the little kids. They just put that in this year. Reindeer Games. I just thought of a great idea. It drops and it's in the Thanksgiving section, so it could be one of those weird drop rides with like 10-across seating that shakes and tilts around at the top before dropping, themed to the mast of a ship with the seats going across the beam that holds the rolled-up sail.

kidcoaster 2 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 My bet is its something big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I highly doubt it will be a drop tower, considering they already have LL and just added Reindeer Games (which ROCKS!) I'm still leaning towards a Mayflower swinging ship...after all, your stomach DROPS as you head downwards...right? Another possibility I see is an Intamin Giant Flume with a steep drop. (Such as Perilous Plunge or Hydro.) And finally, if they did happen to go the coaster route (which is even more HIGHLY doubted), I could see HW adding a Eurofighter or El Loco with a +100* drop. Can't wait for the announcement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
