liftsifter Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 My bets are on S:UF within the next two years. Or a woodie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCI Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 S:UF Doesn't make any sense, There's ready SROS. I think it'll be a replacement for Vulture or a giant flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathbydinn Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 My bets are on S:UF within the next two years. Or a woodie. Think Batwing..not S:UF. Batwing opened at SFA in 01, so I wouldn't put a Vekoma flyer out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorkscrewFoley Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 If it's a woodie, I'm hoping it's a CCI...maybe......a Villain clone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarWars Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I know SFA's Batwing is a Vekoma flyer, but what's stopping Six Flags South Carolina from using a B&M flyer using the Batwing theming? Throughout Six Flags there are many roller coaster which share the same name and logo, but are by different manufacturers, like Goliath for instance and Viper.

coasterdude5 Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 2001 23rd Season No news lately, the park should make an announcement within the next few days. I've heard that ground clearing has begun across the lake besides the lower part of Vulture. The train has also closed for the remainder of the season. Hmmm... Undertaker's still doing its thing. Today was a great day for a ride on Thunder River. Gotham City Backlot has remained unchanged since it opened a few years ago. Emerald Bay has changed quite a bit since it opened!

imawesome1124 Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I love the picture of Thunder River and I don't know why. I wonder why the train is closed, I am interested in what is going on for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterdude5 Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 2001 23rd Season I apologize for not updating the website over the past couple of weeks. After the attacks I haven't been quite up for going to the park, but I did drop by the park the weekend before the 11th and got some interesting photos: A lot of land clearing is going on in the area behind Tidal Wave. The park should make an announcement regarding 2002 any day now. V2's reliability seems to be improving. Batman was closed for a portion of the day today. Let's go this way! It was a nice day at the park. Signing off, Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMeMe Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I'm not sure if I'm the only one who wants this, but how about a layout shot of the park? It'll be cool to see what it's like from above. Also, it would give me a chance to see S:RoS's layout; it sounds interesting. How about it?

Moose Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 The realism in this park is amazing. I wish I had half the skill you do in pulling this off. Nice work as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Of Spades Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 One thing I'd really love to see is some P.O.V. footage of the coasters that are already there. Maybe have one of those Travel Channel shows come to the park to film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 2001 23rd Season Six Flags will announce plans for the 2002 season on Monday! I'm very excited to hear what the park intends to do with that large plot of land I photographed a few weeks ago. Here's another shot of the plot of land. Perhaps this new addition will connect Harbortown with the Gotham City Backlot It appears as if Indigo Plunge is safe for another year. I took advantage of the short lines and took a ride on V2. Hangtime on V2 never gets old. Everybody looks like ants from the top of the tower. The park was pretty crowded today. Thanks for reading! I'll see you next season.

KDcoasterMAN Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I am very excited to see what is built! My guess would be either a custom B&M Flyer, terrain hugging GCII Woodie, or a.... you got me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrcace1234 Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 So, I had no idea this park showed Steam Boat Willie My bet is still a Vekoma Dutchman just because this park has low capacity rides, and that fits the bill for parks in the real chain that suffer from this dilemma--much like Six Flags America.

GrabowskiEnterprises Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 No way this SF is just too nice to end up like SFA, if anything it will get a B&M Flyer cuz the park is nice like SFGAmerica. So SF gives good coasters to it's best parks. Aka why SFMM, SFGAd, and SFGA always get a B&M first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMeMe Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 My one problem with the shot of the ant-sized people from V2 is that it looks like whoever took the shot will slam into that support at very high speed. Nothing much, but unrealistic by this park's standards. If this place was coaster Nirvana, there might be a ginormous William Cobb double-tracked coaster, similar to Le Monstre at La Ronde. All the best Canadian woodies (including Upper Clement's tree topper) were by them. Too bad they're gone. Other than that, I agree with Vekoma Dutchman ^ And it may be just a coincidence. I'm certain they got great coasters because they were just the most visited and most convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
