Yet again, Darien Lake!

2018 - A 30 year old attraction from a different park to replace Twister

2019 - More stuffed animal ride ons in the former Galaxy Theater

2020 - Nothing, but more water park stuff and close the "dry" park (except for Grizzly Run, Thunder Rapids, and Shipwreck Falls)

2021 - all of the dry rides get scrapped

Knotts Berry Farm. I am going to try and be realistic.

 

2017: Soak City expansion (confirmed). Fiesta Village Face Lift. Monte gets a repaint, a Catwoman's Whip style flat ride gets placed in Windseeker's location. Most buildings get new paint and some extra theming. Xcelerator gets a new color scheme of light pink track and light grey supports (optional).

 

2018: Knotts Berry Tales dark ride is brought back in the Boardwalk Ballroom. Everybody is happy because everyone loves it. Boomerang is removed

 

2019: Mystery lodge gets a new script. Soak City gets a small kids water play area. A pipe scream style ride is placed in Boomerang and Riptide's location.

 

2020: Camp Snoopy expansion. Zamperla Air Race replacing Mexican Hat Dance (tea cups) or Waveswinger.

 

2021: Gerstlauer family launch coaster. It could possibly replace Pony Express.

2017:Nothing really, removal of train ride

2018: New path that connects the dead ends of the park, Chance Hyper-GTX in train spot

2019: Waterpark addon, most likely Proslide SKYbox collection

2020: Drop tower in unclear spot

2021: Relocated Vortex from either Carowinds or CGA.

SFFT 5 year plan (2017-2021)

 

2017: GCI/Gravity Group style wooden coaster replacing Power Surge and interacting with the Boardwalk

2018: Water park expansion of some sort

2019: Flat ride package

2020: Removal of Boomerang (maybe relocate it somewhere)

2021: Mr Freeze Reverse Blast clone replacing Boomerang, going over the flume and train

 

Sadly, the last two aren't going to happen, but one can dream. More likely is more waterpark/flat ride stuff followed by another ~7mil coaster-related investment, maybe a Chance Hyper GTX.

 

ZDT's 5 year plan (2017-2021)

2017: jam more arcade games into the arcade

2018: another small budget flat

2019: a new water slide

2020: take down the creepy buildings on the far end of the lot and the unused parking lot back there

2021: another pocket coaster in that area in the back of the park

 

Again, none of this will probably ever happen because the park has a tiny budget and is already awesome but if they did do that it would be cool.

GAdv:

 

2015- Batman backwards, general maitenance and infrastructure updates

2016- Publicly apologize for the the Dark Knight coaster, remove the Dark Knight coaster

2017- Re-open Old Country, anchor it with a new dueling GCI woodie

2018- Build a brand-new coaster within Skull Mountain

2019- Intamin mega-lite/giga on the old safari land behind Ka

2020- Declare bankruptcy

 

Revisiting this old post. Interesting that I kind of got 2015 right. The park did do Namtab and has begun some general maintenance of buildings. New predictions:

 

2017: RMC T-Rex on old Chiller site

2018: Justice League

2019: Removal of Bizarro, expansion of Safari

2020: Green Lantern converted to floorless coaster

2021: Flats package

I'll take a jab at this with Lagoon

 

2017: Hopkins Superflume replacing old Log Flume ride, with relocated entrance on Rattlesnake Rapid's Plaza.

 

2018: Spider is sold, replaced with a new spinning coaster model from Maurer Sohne of the same name. Dracula's Castle closes.

 

2019: The entire building holding the arcade and the old Dracula's Castle is rebuilt with a new, modern dark ride with Garner Holt Animatronics and a dark ride system from ART.

 

2020: A small kiddie ride or two in Kiddieland. Most Likely from Zamperla

 

2021: New front entrance near Cannibal and the grass field is paved with parking lot and new entrance to parking lot on the north side. Roller Coaster celebrates 100 year birthday with new trains and rename to Pippin Dips.

You forgot to modify Jet Star to allow single riders.

Jet Star 2 would be better off scrapped. With the minimum envelope with the current seats, you can't raise your hands at all. So modifying it to allow single riders is almost impractical. Sure, it's a great classic ride, but it's been in the park for fifty years now. It's had a good run.

How about modifying any of the coasters to allow single riders in the front or last rows?

 

Also Tig'rr at Indiana Beach allows single riders. My only thought about Jet Star 2 is that they don't want people jumping off Jet Star 2.

Because the three rides that the policy is in place for wasn't made a policy because of the way the coaster is designed. It was a policy placed solely by Lagoon themselves, which isn't a big deal at all when you can still ride all three rides.

 

For Tig'rr, the cars on that ride are smaller and seat less people, so for that ride, it probably doesn't need a single rider policy for that reason. Jet Star 2, however, does. It's the same for all Jet Star 2 models that haven't been modified.

This seems very reasonable and sensible. I like it! Georgia Scorcher needs new paint NOW though.
