SixFlagsAstroworld Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hey guys, I'm not going to update this park for a few days. Â Why? A few pages ago, I said I would record POV videos of the rides in the park. And I'm doing that right now. The videos should come out sometime over the weekend.

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 March 1982: Media Day for Hurricane River  Hey Everybody!  I visited Lake Shernview today to attend the media day for Hurricane River. Lake Shernview is operating on a weekend schedule but I didn't have to worry. Today's a Tuesday!  For some reason, I was the only one attending Hurricane River's media day. Shot0244 (2).bmp Only one in the park. It feels weird not seeing anyone here. Shot0245 (2).bmp Anyway, here's Hurricane River! I'm glad that the Tropical restaurant fits in the area now Shot0246 (2).bmp Shade to keep us out of the hot sun. I love the theming! Shot0247 (2).bmp Real fire? Shot0248 (2).bmp It's not like anyone will be stupid enough to touch the torches Shot0249 (2).bmp Ooh! Rotating station! These rides are starting to get more high-tech! Shot0252 (2).bmp Anyway, Time to get wet! Shot0257 (2).bmp I'm soaking wet now. There was a lot of big rapids. Shot0262 (2).bmp Great view of Corkscrew! Shot0264 (2).bmp Waterfalls! Just when I thought the ride was over! Shot0268 (2).bmp Hurricane River is the first River Rapids I've seen that has 3 lifts Shot0271 (2).bmp At least Corkscrew looks nicer without a piece of bare land next to it. See you next time!

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 July 1982 Â Today or should I say Tonight is the first ever "Coasters at Dark" event. Â Normally, Lake Shernview is open until 9:00 pm, but with this event, the park is open until Midnight! I complimented Tyler on thinking of a great idea and he told me that he's going to add the biggest addition to Lake Shernview of his life. He also told me that he might do this event again on the 4th of July next year. Â Now let's check out the park! Shot0272 (2).bmp Everything looks nice at 10:30! Shot0273 (2).bmp Tyler told me that he replaced some of the coaster cars with ones that have headlights! Shot0274 (2).bmp Corkscrew looks plain at night Shot0275 (2).bmp Hurricane River Landing, I'm speechless! Shot0276 (2).bmp I decided to ride Hurricane River because why not? Shot0277 (2).bmp After the ride, I rode Sky Chuter. Hurricane River gets my vote for "Best ride at night"! Shot0278 (2).bmp I'm definitely coming back here for The 4th of July next year!

TheJewelOfJool Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 There needs to be a ride at the park that is LEGENDARY when it becomes night time, like The Beast, so all the other rides become walk-ons during Coasters At Dark. Â (Note: due to the crappy Canadian dollar and the distance to KI from where I live, I have not ridden The Beast at night yet.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 September 19th,1982: Â The off-season is almost here (There's no Halloween event yet, but Tyler is considering adding it next year) Â I was flying to visit my parents in New York and I flew over the park. I took a few pictures. Â Tyler told me that he was planning on adding 2 new attractions and a fancy restaurant. He told me that one of the new rides will be a second attempt with a better layout. Â Any guesses on what ride Tyler is talking about for 1983? Shot0279 (2).bmp A lot of dirt Shot0280 (2).bmp This is the biggest expansion Tyler added in his life.

Take a trip over the lake on this new ride!  The Dock: A new restaurant located in front of Wild Eagle with a dock for a seating area.

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Before you guys say anything, please note that the curves on Thunderbird are not banked. It's possible in 1983 for a second attempt at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Hi, I just returned from my parents in New York and I flew over the park a few minutes before landing. I'm planning on visiting next week which is the final week of the season Shot0281 (2).bmp If you noticed, Chairlift and The Dock has already been built. There are now 3 restaurants in Lake Shernview Shot0282 (2).bmp I'm starting to wonder when Thunderbird pieces will arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 I visited the park to take an off season tour. I was told that I was only allowed to take one picture of the new additions for 1983 for some reason. Â Here are the photos download coming soon! Shot0283 (2).bmp The Dock. It's a seafood restaurant. Shot0284 (2).bmp I asked if there was going to be any theming to the chairlift and I was told that Tyler was planning on expanding even more, but he hasn't decided a theme for the area yet. Shot0286 (2).bmp THUNDERBIRD HAS ARRIVED! Well, part of it at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 March 1983 Â Â Thunderbird is testing! Â I also gotten to ride the Chairlift which provided a great view of the park. Shot0288 (2).bmp Here's Thunderbird on the first drop Shot0290 (2).bmp A beautiful sunset photo of the pretzel helix. Shot0291 (2).bmp This is why Tyler called it the Lakeside Update. All the new attractions goes over the lake! Shot0292 (2).bmp Here's The Dock. Shot0294 (2).bmp The Chairlift provides great views of Lake Shernview... Shot0295 (2).bmp ... And of course, Thunderbird. I'll make a new update for Thunderbird's Media Day next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Today is the media day for Thunderbird! Â Here's what I thought of the ride: Compared to The Bat (I've been on it), Thunderbird's layout feels like it works better although a few spots could use some tweaking. Thunderbird is shorter than The Bat, but I loved the part where it dives into the lake and then curves into what everyone calls a "Pretzel Helix". Â Thunderbird, If nothing bad happens, should be more reliable than The Bat. Â The photos: Shot0296 (2).bmp I was the first one here. Tyler decided to let me be the first person to ride Thunderbird Shot0297 (2).bmp Lift hill shot! Shot0298 (2).bmp Nice views can be seen from Thunderbird's lift Shot0299 (2).bmp Most of the layout can be seen from here Shot0301 (2).bmp This is the only part on Thunderbird that scared me Shot0303 (2).bmp The dive into the lake followed by a Pretzel Helix Shot0304 (2).bmp I felt like the car was actually touching the lake's surface! Shot0308 (2).bmp The ceremony for Thunderbird's opening was an hour ago, followed by riding Thunderbird. After the free lunch, Tyler offered one more ride on Thunderbird before leaving and some people darted towards the ride immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 July 1983 Â I decided to visit the park today for fun. Â What I rode today (in order): Â -Thunderbird: I'm glad I arrived early. Thunderbird had a long wait later. Â -Corkscrew: It's a good ride, but the paint is fading. Â -Hurricane River: I rode it for fun, but I regretted it when I found out the water was freezing. Â -Sky Chuter: Mining Mania was closed, so I decided to catch this instead. Â -RipCord: I love this ride! Worth the long wait! (the line was a bit shorter than usual. Thanks Thunderbird!) Â -Wild Eagle: Still a great coaster! Â Here are some random pictures I took today: Shot0309 (2).bmp Shot of the park Shot0310 (2).bmp I see a bird Shot0312 (2).bmp I still think this area looks nice Shot0313 (2).bmp Shot0316 (2).bmp Oh. I should point out that the Swan Boats were removed due to unpopularity. I know this couple is having a moment, but they are not allowed there.

TheCoasterKid211 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Nice update, but I need to input a bit of criticism here... this park is turning dry. You need to add a LOT more pictures and/or rides to keep this thread fresh. Other than that, Thunderbird looks really solid! Is a download available?

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 ^ 1) I ran out of screenshots I took ahead of time so I have to prepare more so I can work on other parks. There will be more in my updates between 1-2 weeks.  2) The download will be available soon. I feel the park needs a little more for a download  Thank you all who chose to stick around.

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Note: For now on, I will post updates on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays  September 1983:  I decided to see what was up at Lake Shernview. I hear that some work was going on there. Shot0753.bmp Hello Lake Shernview! Let's see if the rumors are true. Shot0754.bmp Well, The Carousel was repainted and I see something behind spiral slide Shot0755.bmp A shot of Sky Chuter. The line was too long so I decided to skip it. Shot0756.bmp According to Tyler, Corkscrew is going to be repainted next year to a different color scheme. Anyone have any guesses on colors? Shot0757.bmp Ooh! Dirt! In front of Hurricane River too! Shot0758.bmp Well, I will confess now, I'm addicted to Hurricane River Shot0759.bmp Thunderbird was malfunctioning today, so it was closed all day. Shot0760.bmp 1984 COASTER CONFIRMED! Shot0761.bmp I decided to eat at The Dock today. Nice view of the lake and park Shot0762.bmp I'm also addicted to Wild Eagle Shot0763.bmp Well, I thought the RipCord fever would have died by now, but the line is FAR WORST than last year! Shot0764.bmp Space Scramble with Wild Eagle photobomb Shot0765.bmp A beautiful photo of Wild Eagle Shot0766.bmp Well, Park's closed. Time to take a short walk through the woods to the parking lot.
