disney4me2001 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Any other parks in the USA that has a Roller Skater coaster? Do you mean any Roller Skaters in general, or the ones with the shoe train design? The one from Six Flags New Orleans is now Road Runner Express at SFMM, and there's also Gadget's Go Coaster at Disneyland. The one closest to me is the Patriot at Castles 'n' Coasters in Arizona. Those are the ones that come immediately to mind for me, but there are quite a few out there!
BigBomer Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 ^ All right, I get to go first on these pictures!!! The roller skater coaster got to be the coolest-looking kiddie/family coaster with its train designs and there ought to be more coasters like that in the USA parks (Kentucky Kingdom used to have a Roller Skater before Six Flags turned tail and run, so I have no idea if that coaster is still there or if Six Flags took it with them). Any other parks in the USA that has a Roller Skater coaster? "I'm not perfect; I just love to ride!!!" Fiesta Texas has one with shoe trains.
coasterbear30 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 As does Wild Adventures (Ant Farm Express.)
Guy T. Koepp Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Most Legolands have a modified version of them. HRP had one as well.
RoCo Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Just went through the last few pages; so many great shots. The on-ride Renegade shots made me laugh out loud, very loudly; fantastic! And, wow, the updated Krake looks awesome!
Hhappy Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 From the 07 Midwest trip.. Chang - Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom
mikeykaise Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 the black, yellow, and red definitely looks much better than just green and black. We want our coaster back dang nab it! We miss our Chang.
thrillerman1 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 My favorite stand up. Great pics as always, Hanno!
Hhappy Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 While we are at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom.. we might as well have a look at another ride there. Twisted Twins I don't remember much about this ride.. but looking at the pictures.. a well.. I'll let them do the talking cool name sign train coming down ehmm.. what's happening in the back? I guess this sums it up..
ernierocker Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Rode them when they first opened and they were nothing exciting. Can't imagine they improved any.
Hhappy Posted April 1, 2013 Author Posted April 1, 2013 From the 07 Midwest trip.. Raptor - Cedar Point
televisedconfession Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 I always loved the color scheme of this ride.
cfc Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 ^That is one of the more interesting color combinations I've seen on a coaster.
Hhappy Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 How about another B&M inverted coaster? Black Mamba at Phantasialand. station theming first drop fun
BenFreeze Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Great pictures as always! Black Mamba looks like a great ride, and the station looks amazing as well!
ernierocker Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Another ride and park that I hold to ride in the next couple of years.
televisedconfession Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 I love this park. I wish I lived closer to it. Europa and Phantasialand are some of my favorite parks I've ever been to. Thanks for the updates Hanno.
cfc Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I found Black Mamba a bit tough to photograph (my photos always came out a bit blurry), but you nailed it, Hanno. I like this ride, too (another solid ride that's raised up a notch by good theming).
Hhappy Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 time for something totally different.. Viktor Vandorm - BonBon-Land bonbon land.. home to awesome random theming long trains are fun
palmerleeberry Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Oh Boy, I get to first again - someone pass around the champagne!!! After seeing this picture, I decided to go to http://www.rcdb.com and check out what the site has about this coaster and all I can say is "Whoa Mama!" That has to be the coolest-looking coaster I have ever seen in a long while and I bet it'll be a thrill to ride ( if only I can make it Denmark ). So I might never get to ride a coaster like this, but I do know of other coasters (located in the USA ) that has the long train and even longer tracks: Pepsi Streak in Mall America, Jaguar in Knotts Berry Farm, and Catwoman Whips in Six Flags New England. Does anyone know any more coasters like that? "Remember, before you go have a long day of riding rides it is essential to get a good night's sleep first!"
SharkTums Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Have I mentioned how excited I am for the Scandi Trip next year!?!? Bon-Bon land rules!
cfc Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 That ride had one of the longest trains I've ever been on--it's quite a good ride, too.
