duffgun Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Its been a while now since Blackpool had a genuine new roller coaster install and as the Pleasure beach is my fav park in the uk. I am hopping they will get something new in the next few years. What new ride would you like to see them install?
coastered Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 The latest rumors were about launch coasters. A couple of years ago it was about an Intamin launch coaster with a tophat on a pier out in the sea. But the latest rumors are about a Mack launched coaster with a location next to Steeplechase en Rollercoaster.
Jerrykoala2112 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 I wouldn't mind if they got a short intamin launcher. Those are my favorite types of coasters.

duffgun Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 A Mack coaster would be cool as long as they don’t knockdown Rollercoaster as that is one of my fav rides lol. I was thinking they could install a ride like Lynet where Avalanch currently is.
Sasquatch Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 I think BPPB needs to work on other things before sticking a new ride in. Although, I think this is the case with many parks to be honest! PMBO still needs big sections of track re-installing and re-designing at least... I was thinking along the lines of a small-ish (Like 100ft or so) Intamin looping coaster, given that they already have 3 wooden coasters, a launched coaster, and a hypercoaster. Alot of parks make the mistake of getting really faddy coasters (like SLCs, hypers, etc) before they have a good solid and basic one in there.
duffgun Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Yeah thats the sort of ride i would like to see in there a fun fairly compact inverted coaster. When i went in September the park looked much cleaner than when i went back in 2001, I think there is talk of them doing up the kids section next.
Sasquatch Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 ^ Yeah, exactly. The best way to own a really good park is to make what you have as good as possible before banging huge rides in. Unlike a certain park near Malton in North Yorkshire....
