daniellazarus Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Planning on heading to the park tomorrow with my dad who hasn't been in a few years. I know that tomorrow is a bring-a-friend free coupon day, so I'm a little worried about crowds. Did anyone here go to the park today or yesterday? If so, what were the crowds like? My partner and I went to the park the last 3 days in a row. Even though it was bring a friend day on all 3 days we rode the Iron Rattler 25 times. Altogether we rode 42 rides in the past 3 days, so the crowd should be OK for you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrlittle Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 ^ Jamie, why do you have to tease us. Will you let us know what the #eXtreme14 is soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nRoK Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Clearly this will be an eXtreme water coaster with 10k eXtreme inversions featuring the first ever eXtreme over the shoulder harnessed inflatable river raft also forgot to mention its an eXtreme twisting coil of thrills at over 70mph.

itsmeabel Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 A couple months ago a friend of mine that works at the Port of Brownsville told me roller coaster (steel) parts were passing through the channel, didn't think much of it at the time but now makes me wonder...

Ducky dude Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 ^ But here is where you wonder about the tweet "TO the B walk!". We need a REAL hint picture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaGuy Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) Hmmm TO the B walk. Texas Cyclone was in Coney Island section of the park at SFAW. Coney Island is a boardwalk (I think). So The New Texas Cyclone will be born on the Fiesta Bay Boardwalk. Hehe just creating #extreme14 speculation. Id say new slides are in need at the water park so maybe it'll be those Bonzai Pipelines they've been doing at some of the other SF Parks but hope it's a coaster.

There have been a lot of rumors about a GCI going into the boardwalk, spurred on by posted a few months back. The coaster is clearly sitting in SFFT's boardwalk section. SFFT's twitter has also used #coasters in recent teasers... So who knows what that means. I can't imagine a new coaster so soon, but it sure would be nice eh? Texas would love its own GCI. As a state, we only have 2 "true" woodies now, In Judge Roy Scream and Boardwalk Bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaGuy Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Still trying to figure out what the #two32three along with #coasters hash tag is about from their tweet. Fiesta Texas @SF_FiestaTexas 22 Aug Feeling generous today! RT for more exciting clues! #coasters #two32three #eXtreme14 Could #two32three = "Back to back"?? Hummmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardwalkbullet91507 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Maybe 2,323 feet of track? That wouldn't be in favor of the Airplane Coaster given that it was 3500 feet long (RCDB). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaGuy Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 ^^ Good point. I guess the announcement just can't come soon enough. We'll just see what comes out this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastergenius250 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 GCI's Airplane Coaster would be a cool ride, what if they named it Viper? At least we won't see another Vekoma! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBomer Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 GCI's Airplane Coaster would be a cool ride, what if they named it Viper? NO! If they build a Airplane coaster I want it to be called Airplane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydra Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 What about a Eurofighter? Dare Devil Dive style. Would be an extreme drop (over 90 degrees). Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky dude Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 OH OH OH! YES I WANT A EURO FIGHTER! PLEASE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfog1985 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 ^^ Yeah, I could see a Eurofighter going in there, as from what I understand Dare Devil Dive has been pretty successful for SFoG, and if the track length is around 2300 feet, that would match up too. Given the prevalence of the Gerstlauer spinners in the SF chain, I kind of expected it to be cloned (or have other similar models) eventually too.

ArizonaGuy Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I agree. The Eurofighter would be a nice addition to the Boardwalk. And the Banzai Pipeline complex to the waterpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardwalkbullet91507 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 A Eurofighrer would be excellent. Not only would it be the second one in Texas, but it could be sinificantly longer than Iron Shark; plus, it could occupy a larger footprint.

GoBears Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Anyone recognize the park in the background of on GCI's video of their Rye Airplane Coaster?(Rhetorical Question) I personally think this woodie would be great at the park. Since Rattler got Iron Horsed, they no longer have a wooden coaster. This looks pretty fun and shouldn't cost a whole lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganFan Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 The thing with Gerstlauer though, I'm not sure if Six Flags will still use their business anymore after the NTAG incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin55 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'd prefer a GCI over a Eurofighter,but why be picky! I'd love either! If a new coaster is coming that is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenbowl Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 The thing with Gerstlauer though, I'm not sure if Six Flags will still use their business anymore after the NTAG incident. Of course they would. They used Intamin after all their incidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
