Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 3 200ft attractions? Sounds like an S&S Triple Tower ride. PARACHUTE FALLS IS GOING TO GO! NOOOO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathbydinn Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 ^ He said they will open over the next three years meaning one each year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davisal771 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I'm guessing Intamin Drop Tower, B&M Stand-up, and Premier Diving LIM shuttle (Mr. Freeze) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 ^^Oh, ok. Well, I think either Intamin drop or S&S launch or drop, B&M Hyper, and Skycoaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavs Fan Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Nice additions to the park. Â I am going with an observation deck, an Intamin Hyper, and an S&S tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 1997 19th Season  It's been about a week since the park opened for its 19th season and it's great to be coming back to the park regularly after the unusually long winter we had.  The show has been a huge success. People love the Batman!  I think Chaos is going to need a longer line!  The Backlot Commissary serves burgers, fries, and milkshakes.  You can't see the other side of the building from here, but it's designed to look like a movie set!  The park was crowded today!  Have a great one!

coasterdude5 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 1997 19th Season  We're heading towards the month of June and the weather is heating up! Schools are letting out and the park is beginning its daily operation. I like this time of year!  Unfortunately, I heard that the city rejected the request for a height variance for next year. I'll try to find out more for you.  Let's take a stroll to the Gotham Backlot.  Gotham Backlot is now the biggest area of the park!  The Gotham City Crime Wave water effects were in full force today in order to combat the heat!  You will get soaked on this ride!  See you soon!  - Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Well, if the rejection stands, I wouldn't be surprised if the park got a new coaster of some kind. I'm still not falling into the popular pit trap of 'B&M Standup' though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrabowskiEnterprises Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I see the chance for one of the first Vekoma Boomerangs to appear at your park, first genertion of it of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Thriller Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 ^ Your kidding right? The Vekoma Boomerang was created in 1984. If you follow the timeline, this would be nearly a decade after. Definitely not one of the first. (As a matter of fact, there would have been a good 10 to 15 + in operation. In my opinion, this park has enough coasters. More flats would be a better move. And if a coaster, definitely not a boomerang. (With the exception of maybe a Giant Inverted one like Deja Vu') Â This is the best RCT3 park I've ever seen Keep up the work!

mightbeawannabe Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 ^But a Boomerang was manufactured in 1982 for some Mexican park. It was actually the second to open, after the one at Bellewaerde opened in 1984. So...in the park's timeline 36 Boomerangs would be operating (Depending on the current time of year in this park). Â Why, I do not know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 5, 2010 Author Share Posted August 5, 2010 1997 19th Season  I stopped by the park on my way home from work today to see how things were going.  Chaos is a very chaotic ride, take my word for it!  Watch out for the Joker in the Crime Wave line!  I see you, Batman loop!  Now that's better!  Looking to the other side of Emerald Bay  It began to rain so I decided to head on out rather than continuing around the park.  - Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDcoasterMAN Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Another Great Update! I hope in future years we see the return of a frontier themed area to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 1997 19th Season  I took the kids to the park last night - it was quite an enjoyable evening. The comfortable temperatures helped a lot!  First stop... Bumper Cars!  We decided to eat at the Saltwater Cafe for dinner.  The kids wanted to go check out the new Gotham Backlot.  Unfortunately, we missed the last showing of the Batman and Robin Live Action Show.  My yongest even decided to challenge the Gotham City Crime Wave!  The long line gives us plenty of time to get the adrenaline running!  They both loved it!  We passed on Chaos to go take one last ride on Batman.  Family time is always fun!  - Joe  P.S. I heard something is leaving the park. No idea what, though. I'll try to look into this over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterdude5 Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 1997 19th Season  I saw this sign placed inside the entry plaza:  "VIPER WILL CLOSE ON JULY 31, 1997 TO MAKE WAY FOR NEW ATTRACTION IN 1998."  I was so shocked to see it. Viper, formerly known as Heatwave, has been such a staple of Charleston Gardens and now Six Flags South Carolina. I have no idea what will take its place, but rest assured I'll be doing a lot of investigating in the coming weeks.  Heatwave opened in 1979 as the park's first looping coaster.  Today it's received a new name and color scheme but it's still the same great ride.  Until Vulture opened, it was the "big" ride at the park.  I'm very sad to see that it's leaving, but I'm very excited to see what will replace it!  - Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mastersax68 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 As long as the Arrow suspended stays, I'm fine with it. A large coaster must be coming, if they had to clear one out of the way, though. Stand-Up! Stand-Up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
