gerstlaueringvar Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Elitches. Last major coaster was 2004, and they've removed one since then (Flying Coaster). I know they are out of space, but if we go off of what Grona Lund is doing then there will always be room.Honorable mention to Silverwood, last major coaster was 2008. Hopefully that RMC works out! Silverwood is getting a SBF spinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screaminkid2005 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I think SFNE needs a NEW coaster. The last new coaster we got was Pandemonium in 2005. Gauntlet and Goliath were both transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geauga Dog Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Waldameer. Even if it's an off-the-shelf model a Gerstlauer Euro-fighter wuold be a fine complement to RFII and pretty much complete their coaster lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarienLaker Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Dairen Lake needs 2 new coasters  I think Darien Lake just needs one new coaster and I mean new, not a used coaster from another park more specifically a family coaster for kids in 42" inches and taller ranger even if they have ride it with an adult!

Rollercoaster Rider Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Great Escape. When was the last time they built a Non-relocated coaster worth mentioning? Frankie's Mine Train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheBooker Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Please don't kill me.  But why is everyone against second hand coasters? I mean take After Shock at Silverwood. It was Déjà Vu at SFGAM.  Outside of the enthusiast community, I highly doubt many people, if anybody has visited both parks, let alone make a habit of doing so.  So SFI sells them a GIB for what I'm sure was much less than the price of a new one. SFI then makes money and Silverwood saves money.  Silverwood's customer base doesn't see it as a second hand coaster, they see it as the sweet new ride at Silverwood.  As an enthusiast, I understand the desire for new coasters. But if the park only warrants used rides, at least be thankful they are making changes.  Everyone wants that new hotness. But sometimes, most of the time....you don't get it.  Again. Please don't kill me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollercoaster Rider Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm not against clones or relocated coasters either; But since everyone else is against relocated coasters, Why not jump on the bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a park transfers or relocates a solid coaster, I think it would be a good addition to a park in need of said coaster. But to give St Louis a 23 year old boomerang is laughable.

jynx242 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'll agree with Wild Adventures or Great Escape  It would also be nice to see SFA get a new coaster as well as SFStL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screaminkid2005 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm also not against them. I just want a brand new custom ride that is made for my park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCjunkie Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 All parks deserve a new coaster. With that being said, MiA for sure followed by Valleyfair and Adventureland. The upper mid west needs some love from the coaster gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loop-de-loop Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm going to say La Ronde, as their last brand new coaster was in 06, and they only got a used SLC in 2010, when they already had a batman clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Stratosphere Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The Adventuredo- oh wait, we are finally getting one!! 13 years since Las Vegas has seen a new roller coaster (2000 with the now gone Speed: The Ride), but honestly I can see more rides going up in the future here in Vegas, if not a new park. I think there is another shift happening in Vegas where non-gaming attractions are starting to rise once again. Â We lost two coasters in recent years, High Roller at Stratosphere and Speed: The Ride at Sahara. Â Leaving now only 4 major coasters in Nevada. Canyon Blaster, El Loco, The Roller Coaster (Manhattan Express) and Desperado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XYZ Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 LEGOLAND California. Gotta put my home park in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterschile Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Fantasilandia really needs a new coaster, the Galaxy is gone, and Fantasilandia only puts flat rides and the rollercoasters are old and not so interesting (Vekoma Boomerang, and rough SLC) so I think it really needs a good coaster, custom, tall, with airtime or inversions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArgoZ Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Dorney Park. It seems to constantly get old coasters from other parks, which many of us have already been on. I would like to visit, but it needs a shiny "new" reason to get me to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSum1_55 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Elitch Gardens. The last non-kiddie coarser was added 10 years ago. That equates to zero adult coasters and one kiddie coaster added in 10 years. By comparison, Lagoon in SLC has added two adult coasters and two kiddie coasters in the past 10 years, and is already planning another adult coaster. And, if the SLC area is only half the size of the Denver area, this proves that Elitch's should deserve a new ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booink Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The Great Escape. Last new coaster was the boomerang, unless we count the kiddie Road Runner Exp./Frankie's mine train. I would love to see an Intamin Mega-lite replacing the Nightmare or the Steamin' Demon, but as this will obviously not happen, an El Loco or Eurofighter would fit nicely and be more realistic.

JonnyRCT3 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Camden Park or Conneaut Lake Park. They actually deserve a coaster, and could benefit more than any other park mentioned. My opinion. Â A boomerang would be the equivalent of a Giga-coaster to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheel1231 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 The Great Escape could use a good coaster. I think if Kentucky Kingdom's Hyper GTX does well then other parks will follow. Knotts Berry Farm needs a coaster but I believe that they are still supposed to get a giga some time in the next 5 years. I think we can all agree that Michigan's Adventure is long overdo for ANY type of ride. Before a coaster is put in, I think the park needs a super shot from Larson.

3Mutts Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 The Great Escape REALLY needs a new coaster, our last non-kiddie coaster was Canyon Blaster (the worlds worst Arrow Minetrian) in 2003, THATS 11 YEARS AGO!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronWolfman Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Silverwood is getting a SBF spinner. Yes, but I mean they need a major new coaster (hint - the RMC). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
