ratdogg68 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm going with a MACK Launched, terrain, multi looper with a splashdown named Storm Chaser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGuy2000 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm Thinking Verbolten like launch coaster with a tilting seesaw section still. I think that would be awesome and Zierer is based in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayWorldFTW Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I feel like I am the only one who would be very happy if Holiday World got a wing coaster Nope I too would be EXTREMELY happy with a wing coaster as well. I love those rides! But in all honestly I'll love any coaster they will put in. I'm not too terribly picky about coasters at all. I pretty much love them all. BTW I also thing there will be a loop or few involved...with some water elements... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I can not wait to not hear/see the term "Verbolten like" again.... What's wrong with verbolten? I think its a great, fun family coaster. I mean, there is no show building built for any see saw or drop track but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chargersmichael Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I feel like I am the only one who would be very happy if Holiday World got a wing coaster ^I'm with you too! People just keep on bashing Wing Coasters and I'm sure that whatever Holiday World is bringing ashore will be a real hit! Wing Coasters provide unique experiences. It seems that people complain that B&M isn't intense anymore...a roller coaster doesn't need to be intense with the most powerful G's to be an outstanding coaster. It seems that the overall look on roller coasters nowadays is..."it just seems to barely go through every element...too slow...not intense..." I judge roller coasters once I ride them and sometimes the ones that aren't as intense are the better ones for me. I honestly will be surprised with whatever Holiday World is creating but I believe it will be a Wing Coaster of some type due to the latest clues and pictures of the clouds.

aCoasterStory Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 So most of those clues are fairly straightforward. I think it's safe to say at this point that it's a $22M B&M steel coaster with inversions. All the 'Birds of Prey' references seem to indicate a wing coaster (though a flyer could also be possible). “One mammoth of an announcement.” The longest magnetically-launched coaster? I know Cheetah Hunt is pushing 4500ft. Is any magnetically-launched coaster longer than that? “I always wanted a younger brother.” No idea. To me this would imply that it's not the biggest/baddest/awesomest new thing. Unless it's talking about a younger brother to Hulk? “Bellyaching and moaning won’t get you any closer to announcement time” Thoughts? Maybe the restraints will put you face-down? That could speak to a flyer or a 4D wing coaster IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I also thing there will be a loop or few involved...with some water elements... I feel the same way. I would be happy with ALMOST anything they put there. IMO wing coasters look cool and a lot of the gp there probably hasn't ridden one. who knows though. Holiday World outdoing Cedar Point so soon after their Gatekeeper would definitely be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, there is no show building built for any see saw or drop track but still... Oh, no. Don't get me wrong. I'm sure the actual ride is very good. I'm just tired of the term. If by Verbolten like they are trying to say, it'll have a show building...(in my opinion) just say that. If they mean similar ride design and experience, fine...but both seem lacking to me. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneOfTheWills Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Apologies for the double post. “One mammoth of an announcement.” The longest magnetically-launched coaster? I know Cheetah Hunt is pushing 4500ft. Is any magnetically-launched coaster longer than that? Longest LSM Launch is Helix by Mack Rides at 4,530.8ft. Longest LIM Launch is California Screamin' by Intamin at 6,072ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchubs33 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I am pretty sure the "Bellyaching and Moaning" comment is a hint towards B&M, as is the final hint by Leah. Tomorrow is going to be a long day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzillard Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Just throwing this out there, perhaps 110 feet will have something to do with this ride. the real mayflower was 110' long and maybe they will have a 110 foot tall inversion or something.

Atter Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm so excited for the announcement tomorrow! I don't even live close to this park, but I still can't wait to see what it is!

Locostitch Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) We'll here is.my last guess. With all the bird clues I can't help but realize this is a wing rider. But she keeps saying it is one of a kind so my guess is a...... Flying wing rider. It makes perfect sense as it really emphasizes the flying coaster experience as there in nothing above or below while laying down . Edit: not only would this be flipping amazing the whole train system which would the flip the riders would work with a simple motor to flip it and deadbolt locks to lock it in place.

The Geek Mojo Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 B&M isn't German. This is going to be a MACK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locostitch Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 B&M isn't German. This is going to be a MACK. But Switzerland speaks a dialect of German as there main language. So it is B&M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
