Most Exciting 2012 Coaster...

[Schotcher]

And SkyRush, for its Intamininess. All that needs to be said.

 

No I think you could of summed it up as *Rattle Rattle Rattle*

[alpengeist04]

SFDK's Superman Ult. Flight for its "that looks like an Orlando Thrill Park concept but it's REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN!" sweetness

 

LOL, so true.

 

 

I only voted for 4, since BGW's coaster wasn't on the list. Here's my list.

 

1. SkyRush

2. Superman (SFDK)

3. Wild Eagle

4. Leviathan

 

Verbolten will probably be anywhere from #2 to #4 once the details are announced tomorrow.

[RollerCoasterSmi]

I have just added the completely surprising addition of Polar X-plorer at Legoland Billund.

 

Also, could one of the moderators remove the double Verbolten listing, I can't seem to.

 

Thank you,

Probably Wild Eagle because that is the one I am most likely to ride next year.

[adavis]

Skyrush by far. Being one of the junior researchers is definitely enhancing the excitement.

[krazekiddd]

I'm going to have to say WildEagle for sure. Mostly because I really want to get back to Dollywood and that is a really big incentive for me.

Flying Tur....

 

Nevermind lol

[alpengeist04]

^Don't tease us like that.

[DougMJr]

^^What is the status on that... I know Knoebels posted a POV with the new prototype chassis in june.

 

 

I really want this thing to open, but I,m not holding my breath for a 2012 opening.

[Randomman295]

I really can't wait for any of them... I guess I really should be excited for Manta and Superman because I live in AZ, but all of them are BOMB. But especially Verbolten, Skyrush, and Swarm.

[Randomman295]

Flying Tur....

 

Nevermind lol

Yeah, why wasn't that on the list? Classic coasters are always good.

[StealthFan]

Well I voted for the Europa woodie and Parc Asterix B&M Invert. They are the ones I will hopefully get to ride next year and look very very good. The Swarm at Thorpe Park doesn't interest me at all, I just cant seem to get excited about the Wing Rider concept but you never know it could surprise me.

[RollerCoasterSmi]

I decided not to add it because there is no guarantee it will open this year, I did consider putting it on but decided not to for this reason. It has been under counstruction for I think 5 years now... Sorry

[SoCalCoasters]

I'm very excited for Legoland Billund's Addition...hopefully, Legoland CA will make up their mind within the next month and put something on the table for 2012...even if it isn't a coaster...

[JamesMC]

Not that any of the coaster of 2012 should be dismissed....but my home park is Six Flags Great America and I CANNOT WAIT for "X-Flight", (although I will prob have to wait 2 hrs. for it...ahem) to get here.....It's been a long time since we had something to "Woo-Hoo" about. This one's a big deal and thank you SFGAM ....we deserve this one.

[simon8899]

Most of these aren't really new concepts so I won't travel to them on purpuse....

 

I've to agree on the B&M wingcoasters - for me they look like X2 "lite" - but also still have to ride my fist of those, but won't travel for them....

 

If Knoebels would finally finish their Flying Turns....that would be something to check out...I've read that their new cars are too heavy for the classic design....well as those coasters in the past were not know to be deathtraps I'd suggest to strip them down....but I guess that isn't possible with the fixation on sometimes too much security overseas...

[alpengeist04]

Flying Tur....

 

Nevermind lol

Yeah, why wasn't that on the list? Classic coasters are always good.

 

I'm not sure why, but I do believe it was on the 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008... lists.

[RollerCoasterSmi]

It doesn't have a definitive opening date, all the other ones are confirmed for 2012. Flying Turns is when it is ready which could be 2012 (hopefully) or maybe 2013 or beyond...

[Bryce232]

I can't be bias at all since I live in central FL and don't live near any park, but I also can't decide on just one awesome one, so:

 

Wild Eagle: every day another element shows up and it may be the most impressive construction to date

 

Leviathan: Although I originally questioned its similarities with Behemoth, I now see HOW FREAKIN MASSIVE THIS THING IS GONNA BE

 

Skyrush: Probably my most anticipated construction of 2012. I always love seeing Intamin lifts because they always look really scenic

 

X-Flight: love the red track, it'll definitely stick out in the area it's being put in, plus it has a great layout

 

The Swarm: Since this construction is ahead of X-Flight, I'm definitely looking forward to that inversion-drop element and the extensive theming.

 

Verbolten: This is what Th13teen should've been. This freefall is more necessary and it has more than just that. I also love the BBW tribute drop

 

Parc Asterix: Since it's the first B&M invert to have a dive loop (not counting half of Montu's batwing), it should definitely be an interesting one.

 

Goliath/Stinger: I know they're different, but I'm excited to see how they're built because I missed their original constructions since I was in Kindergarten at the time

 

Superman: I think everyone can agree this is the "Didn't see that coming" roller coaster of 2012. It''s definitely be an eye popper

 

"Mythos": It looks like it'll be really awesome, especially with its sections with neighbor coasters

 

The other coasters coming in Europe are probably gonna be incredible too, but I don't know enough about them yet

[gisco]

Due to circumstances beyond my control, It might be Leviathan that I most look forward to

[Meteornotes]

Probably Verbolten, though there are a couple on the list I hope to ride next year.

[larrygator]

Wondering how this went so long flying under everyone's radar. Anyone have any confirmation if it's an Intamin Mega-Lite?

 

Nigloland Mega-Lite for 2012?

[nannerdw]

I'm the most excited for Wild Eagle,Tennessee's first B&M

[TPDave]

THE SWARM!!!

 

Well, maybe just because it's down the road

[RollerCoasterSmi]

I have just added Shambhala to the list...
