bluestreak Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 So is Six Flags doing a chain wide announcement video like usual? If so, what day? I haven't seen or heard anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DILinator Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I'd definitely have to agree with the previously mentioned line of thought that an S&S Free Spin will be what is replacing Splashwater Falls. Looking at that footprint left by its removal, it would be the perfect size, and area, for one. Considering both SFoG and SFStL are rumored to be receiving one as well, it could be this year's BIG addition for the the Park Chain that just loves BIG additions!

The Geek Mojo Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I can see SFNE getting a S&S 4D coaster in splash water falls spot. I could also see them themeing it to Joker like they did in SFGAdv. If they wanted, they could paint the Mind Eraser and maybe call it Riddler's Revenge and have a full on Gotham area right there on that side of the park since it's next to Batman. The only rides that would be out of place would be Catwoman, Gotham City wild mouse coaster and Joker's wildcard which they could retheme later maybe and make a metropolis area over close to Superman when they add their JLBFM. It'd be nice to see Six Flags start to theme their parks better...SFNE just seems all over the place. However, I know I am talking about Six Flags so I'm not going to get my hopes up. Maybe this is what they have in mind at SFGAm too, Joker 4D besides Batman. Is Six Flags really this predictable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 We desperately need a log flume but I know that's not happening so I won't even bother. Lol I'm leaning towards a free spin based solely on the fact that they just opened up a plot of land that's the perfect size for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcoaster Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I was just at the park yesterday. A 4-D would make a whole bunch of sense for SFNE. Especially seeing that space is limited there and a 4-D has such a small footprint. But let us remember, Six Flags and "makes sense" doesn't always walk hand in hand.

deguy123 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Went to the park Friday and had a great time! Just going to list some highlights and lows! I went to the park in 2011 so its been awhile! Highs 1. Wicked Cyclone was AMAZING!!!! Night ride was even better! 2. Superman was still good! I rode it first as Bizarro, so was glad to ride it as the original theme. (only 20 min wait early in the morning) 3. Lines weren't bad but the park was crowded! 4. Thunderbolt was filling every seat! 5. Summer Shandy 6. Very nice guy at the bar by Macho Nacho Lows 1. Waterpark was packed (I know it's not the parks fault) but they definitely need more slides (3 hours and rode only 3 things) 2. Empty seats galore on Wicked Cyclone and Superman, which could have made the line go much faster if filled. 3. VERY rude employee at Macho Nacho?? Overall I had an great time!

coasterbill Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 5. Summer Shandy And the fact that the rude employees were isolated to Macho Nacho is actually an improvement. This place has the worst employees in the chain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Password121 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I probably have my hopes set far above the mark but I do wonder if there's any possibility that they'd surprise us and introduce some new type of ride instead of a Free Spin at any of the three parks rumored to get one (new to SF parks, not new in general). That said, probably not because a free spin makes sense at pretty much every park and they don't seem like bad rides at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genx24 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 The park just posted a video on instagram confirming Splashwater Falls is closing September 5. S&S 4D here we come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell that to the most recent ride that was added to the park. It's not a flat ride, it's "An all-new seven story soaring and inverting coaster!" that's "unlike anything you have ever experienced".

Genx24 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 They're great rides. One at New England would be a great addition. If the rumours are true I'll definitely be back up at the park in 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genx24 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 It was a joke my goodness. New England has some flats, but not many and they're notorious for ripping flats out and replacing them with empty ride pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Corn Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 They will be getting an overall park expansion including new bathrooms and a 4D Coaster next year!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Yup, that's 100% legitimate. Here's the direct link to the town website and the planning board agenda. Not a bad addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
