just checked out the webcam in time to see the sky cabin on it's way up the tower. Looks like it's running again.

I feel bad for those that haven't experienced TC racing....ive ridden it 20 tines probably and I'd say it's raced....wait I can only remember 1 time I got burned on a race for both laps...probably raced both laps 60 percent of the time...guess I'm just lucky

Which days of the week were these on?

Idk, probably at least one of each...in the summer months we'll typically be at the gates at 6-630....get a meal, hit a ride or 3, walk around, bounce

Walls are expanding near Coast Rider?!?!

Very interesting. I would start speculating a bunch of crap, but we'll find out in 24 hours, so that would be pointless. Can't wait!

[COASTERelic]

The new palm trees that are tied back are interesting too. Maybe the track circles around them as well?

[Shut It Down]

Maybe it's been said and I missed it but, what time is the announcement tomorrow?

I haven't seen an actual source, but I've heard around 7pm

Dang that's later than I was expecting!?

[robbalvey]

I'm only going to say this once...

 

We will be posting the announcement tomorrow as soon as the materials are available to us.

 

PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY LINKS OR IMAGES TO THE ANNOUNCEMENT BEFORE TPR DOES!

 

Anyone who does this will be banned forever from Theme Park Review.

 

Let me explain...

 

Posting the new ride information before we can do it actually creates MORE WORK for us as most of the time people who come on our forum and post info about a new ride will do a crappy job of it and then we have to not only do the work we are going to do to make a proper post about the new ride, but also clean up the garbage posts that people make.

 

No one here will get any extra points or look any "cooler" for being "first" to post the information. We aren't about being first we are about having good quality content. Please respect that. Thank you.

Wonder if there will be footers over there? I'd love to see this new ride wrap around the Knott's Tower and fly over the boardwalk.

[Nrthwnd]

^ Could be, and could happen. We'll have to wait until tomorrow, and TPR releases the info.

Well, if it's themed to surfing as we expect, about what time are prime surfing hours? Alternatively, it could be time to give the other announcements of the day some breathing room.

[KnottsBerryMountain]

Hopefully the string lights return after the new ride opens.

Three and a half hour media event and dinner, the City of Buena Park not releasing its monthly building permits list, a wall up around Coast Rider.......all for a half-pipe? Knott's has played everyone like fiddle. Worked us like garden tools. Pulled the wool over our eyes and fooled the world. It ain't no half-pipe.......something big is going on...mark my words.

[bgtlover]

^You're one of the few who seem to think it was going to be a Surfrider/Half-Pipe Coaster.

[thrillseeker4552]

I'm kinda bummed the announcement is in the evening as opposed to the morning like all the other parks. I'm looking forward to this announcement most, simply because we basically already know what CP, KD, CGA, and SDC are getting. I have absolutely no clue what to expect for Knott's; we have had no hints, leaks, anything.

[firebird81]

^You're one of the few who seem to think it was going to be a Surfrider/Half-Pipe Coaster.

That was sarcasm. I do not in any way think it's going to be a half-pipe. That rumor was started by the coaster-net guys after they had to finally admit Knotts was getting a coaster. It literally has no merit.

[bgtlover]

^Well you only had 27 posts on this forum, so it looked like a newbie post...lol

It'll actually be between 8:00pm - 8:15 from my understanding.

Haha. Why would anybody on the Knott's thread be talking about EST?

Your guess is as good as mine.
