Woodie Warrior Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 If you could combine two different coaster styles/concepts, which would they be? For example, somebody on here suggested something I thought was pretty cool. They combined the S&S Free Fly with a flying coaster, so that the gondolas on the Free Fly would be replaced with flying seats. I think it would be a pretty awesome ride experience.
simon8899 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 One idea on Hansa-Parks Kärnan website is to put the the coaster train onto a Tower Of Terror like ride-system before it will do its coaster part. I think that would be a cool idea.
gerstlaueringvar Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Roller coaster+Zippers Oh wait...Alan already did it.
azza29 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Not a coaster, but I've always thought a river rapids dark ride would be fun.
thrillseeker4552 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 S&S Free Spin + RMC Iron Box coaster
6flagsbrad Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I always thought it would be cool, since the standup coasters and arrow suspended coasters have died away, to combine those two rides together. A swinging standup coaster. Also a spinning inverted coaster would be kinda cool, maybe like the trains from the invertigo coasters that sit back to back but can spin too.
coasterbill Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I'd love to see a Condor / Sky Screamer combo where the tubs are replaced with swings on 3 separate arms flying in close proximity to eachother.
Moose Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I know that Disney has now patented something like this but I have always thought that combing a teacup and a rapids ride boat, allowing the boat to spin based upon turning a wheel in the center, would add a great interactivity to rapids rides.
tarheel1231 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I'd love to see a winged flying coaster regardless of force. I think it would be awesome and it would feel like flying free. Look:
booink Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Replace the inverted coaster trains by flying trains on Batman clones. Imagin the forces, it would be awesome !
piedude81 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Replace the inverted coaster trains by flying trains on Batman clones. Imagin the forces, it would be awesome ! Dude, I think you would end up breaking your neck... Seriously though, things like launched flying coasters would be a hard thing to do when considering rider safety. But then again... it would be a new category of credit. A DEATH CREDIT! I would like to see a "Strata-Hyper" if you will. Something over 400 ft tall that still does something with its insane height and speed.
djboss302 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 How about if RMC did a wood coaster almost exactly like the Voyage? Except with more twistiness and possibly some inversions.
yay101 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 A B&M Flying and Spinning coaster? It would have to have to have a very compact layout though!
Woodie Warrior Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 A B&M Flying and Spinning coaster? It would have to have to have a very compact layout though! They'd have to put it over a midway so riders would have targets to puke on
Xcoaster Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Not a coaster, but I've always thought a river rapids dark ride would be fun. It is, they have Mystery River at Movie Park Germany. One of the better attractions at the park, IMO: And I guess there's also Jurassic Park at Universal Singapore. I think they should theme up rapids rides more often, I know it'd get me to ride them.
marth555 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Launched Flying Coaster. Please. I would be first in line for this
KBrylczyk Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Not a coaster, but I've always thought a river rapids dark ride would be fun. Mystery River at Movie Park Germany. INSANE rapids and dark ride mix. The river flows faster than you can believe and 3/4s of the ride is indoors.
JonnyRCT3 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I'd love to see a winged flying coaster regardless of force. I think it would be awesome and it would feel like flying free. Look: [attachment=0]wfc.jpg[/attachment] Something like that would require one hefty support job, even for the most basic maneuvers. Some examples http://cache.rcdb.com/18jra40g000gn1g2to0008.jpg http://cache.rcdb.com/31l26q40400108eo0ne000.jpg http://cache.rcdb.com/07r4o0g004j8oh7j60008o.jpg http://cache.rcdb.com/4hv0930qg0000id2n4uco0.jpg
rustyinpeace Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) ^The beauty about this concept is that it can be possibly innovated to glide along an upright track. The result can be a support structure similar to wingriders. Edited February 12, 2014 by rustyinpeace
dropzonefan Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Roller coaster+Zippers Oh wait...Alan already did it. Huh?... When did they combine a coaster/zipper ready?... I know that interactive rides (the company that built the stratosphere flat rides) had concept art on their site, but don't think they actually built 1 of these yet. Here's the link to their page: http://www.interactiverides.com/c/news-archives/roll-a-coaster
Midgetman82 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 ^I think they're referring to when Alan said he wanted to combine the concept of a Zipper ride with a coaster, and then came up with the 4-D coaster. Nothing "interactive," but it was a start. Of course, the new prototype Robb recently got to ride is MUCH more like a Zipper now!
dippindotsguy8 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I would love to see a flying dutchman shuttle coaster. If we're allowed to talk about flat rides as well (someone mentioned a condor/star flyer) I would pay big money to ride a 400-foot starflyer-esque version of flying scooters. Snapping would be absolutely terrifying.
Woodie Warrior Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 I would love to see a flying dutchman shuttle coaster. I wouldn't want to go backwards on a flying coaster I do like the concept of a launched flying coaster though.
