lockheart Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Ten bux...wow. Another reason to get the pass in the summer... Unfortunately, its not included in the unlimited rides pass like the rest of the extreme thrill rides in Luna Park. Wished somehow in the future theyll include them. The trains have arrived as well and they look great! I hope this becomes a huge hit so that Zamperla might invest in another and better ride. Hopefully there will be enough people willing to shelve ten dollars for a ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 By it's 3rd year in operation, I fully expected Luna Park to lower their pricing and offer a ride package that includes the Scream Zone rides. But they are doing quite well with their current pricing so why cuts the prices if the demand is there. Keep in mind CAI are not making any money from parking and very little from food concessions, so 99% percent of their income is from the rides.

Brassinthegrass Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Have they done that in the last? Have we received any sort of timeline for opening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devins3 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Considering it cost me 13 bucks to drive over a bridge to visit my friend on Staten Island, 10 bucks for a rollercoaster ride is a good value for me in NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbomser Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 ^ Yea, it's free to leave, but you have to pay to get there! One of the many things I hate about Staten Island! Back on topic: Yes $10 is a bit steep, but so is everything else in NYC. Although, I may have to go back up and visit family to ride this thing. My Fiancé has never been to Coney Island, so that's a good enough excuse as any! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrlittle Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 ^ The train looks open. This coaster really went up quick it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmicha Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I'm really interested to see how this turns out. I liked Coney Island when I was there a couple summers ago but I haven't gotten back in any of my later trips to NYC. I'm going again in July so maybe I'll stop by and check this ride out then. I'm really liking the look of the trains. They're super open. That in combination with the vertical lift should make for some good intimidation. And the overall layout is simple yet appears unique and effective. Plus the colors look great along the beach. If it rides well it'll be a winner.

coasterfreak101 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Those look so cool. Seats are really high and the cars are totally open, can't wait to see how they ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockheart Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I agree with whats being said with the seats.. I like how high the seats are and how open the trains are. The seats themselves look more airy than most seats of mega coasters. lol. Also it looks like the seats go higher each row. The back must really be the best seats on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I'm not a big fan of how high the seats are compared to the track, but I love how open the trains are. EDIT: Maybe not! Shoulder belts! DUN DUN DUN... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockheart Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Are those.... seatbelts?? Why do they need them?

There are two shoulder belts per seat in between the red lap restraint and the top of the seat back. They look like black backpack straps, similar to those found on that Shock Therapy suspended looping coaster in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Those trains look awesome. Love how high up and open they are. The OTS seatbelts dont bother me as much as it would if they had full on OTSRs. Can't wait to ride this thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
