Synshine Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I wonder how well a Big Fun would into the footprint of, say, a Vekoma Boomerang. My guess is that the footprint for a Boomerang is larger than two Wild Mouse coasters, so it should fit. At least I think Chris Gray said Big Fun takes up the space of two Wild "Mice". I did a little research, and it PERFECTLY fits in the footprint of a Boomerang! A Boomerang is 289 ft by 99 ft, vs 275 ft by 90 ft for the Big Fun. My interest is piqued, I wonder who is this rumored buyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryce232 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I rode that Moser spinning flat-ride on Tuesday (I think I saw Robb and Elissa interviewing GCI while I was waiting to ride!), and that thing gave me a headache that lasted the rest of the day. But it was still pretty fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but SFNE already has an awesome compact woodie. Big Fun would be as redundant as Flashback is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could feel you trying so hard to get him to expand on his responses but I think the language barrier was just too much for any elaboration. That's probably why their booth is always empty. The man's a genius and his company does amazing things, but his interviews don't vary much. All of the other coverage is amazing though! I love reading about all the new hotness and you guys have the best coverage by far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
