Double0Kevin Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I think that picture looks like a Gerstlauer spinner. But I'm not going to dwell on it since we'll know in 2 and a half hours. I have faith in SCBB, they do a good job with bringing in rides that work for their park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 My final guess: Maurer Sohne SC2000. Just 90 minutes until that moment of truth is unveiled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 A Maurer Spinner would be a great choice for the park, can't wait to see what they announce! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XYZ Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 My guess is an El Loco, but it probably will be a spinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep-O-Matic Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I really hope someone posts the outcome here by 10am. My final guess is what I've been guessing. Spinning Wild Mouse. It's not really what I'd want, but I know what direction the Boardwalk is going in now *coughfamilyorientatedcough*, and I'd be surprised if it is something really extreme. If it is a Eurofighter, or something else, I'd be blown away. But my guess is still Spinning Wild Mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCT3Bross Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 It looks like the nose of a Maurer Söhne SC. So I think it's going to be a Maurer Söhne Spinning coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalCoasters Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Upon further examination of the picture, it indeed looks like the nose of Maurer's spinners! I wonder if it will be a custom or clone layout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 ^ Well, I know the off-the-shelf model that Waldameer has is WAAAAAAAAY better than Hurricane, so even if it's not custom, that's a huge win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkeyman18 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Intamin woodie megalite aquatrax. If you look at the clouds you can see a bunny which links to the aquatrax part. Its fairly obvious in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) NEW RIDE for Summer 2013!!! UNDERTOW Spinning Coaster!!! At the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk! http://www.beachboardwalk.com/undertow/ NEW Boardwalk Thrill Ride! Buckle up for some unexpected thrills on the only spinning coaster in Northern California! Undertow's crazy turns and sudden drops will push you to the edge… and back! Catch your breath and try it again because Undertow’s unique design ensures that no two rides are ever the same. Start facing forward or start facing backward, depending on the weight and position of riders, your speed and rotation change every time! Ride Description The fun begins with the first drop as riders scream downhill in a disorienting sideways position at speeds of up to 40 mph. In the Immelmann Turn, the track takes a sharp 80° bank as you find yourself staring straight up at the sky or straight down at the ground depending on your position in the car at any given moment. A 360° carousel spin, a slalom section, and plenty of sharp curves will keep you wondering which way is up! Technical Data: - Track length: 1410 ft. - Height: 50 ft. - Cars: 4-seater, spinning - Number of cars: 7 - Capacity: 900 pph - Base area: 147 x 75 ft.

XYZ Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Looks like a fun addition to SCBB. I think this will be much better than Hurticane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0sterfreek Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I give this two thumbs up. I will say my goodbyes to the Hurricane on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double0Kevin Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 NICE! I've wanted to try one of these spinners for a while. Looks like an awesome addition to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper39 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 FINALLY someone built a coaster themed to a TOOL record, bout dang time! That logo is obviously just an artists rendering, ^this will be the actual logo on opening day. But seriously, looks like a great addition to the Boardwalk. I wonder if it will be a standard or custom layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
