Mater Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Storm Chaser looks alright. That ending really kills it for me though, I grew up next to Flight Deck so I like me some intense endings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire2box Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 ... I'll trade you this Joker for SFGAdv's Joker! I swear it's a fair trade... We'll only accept Kingda Ka with Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom. and get Vallejo to scrap that 150 foot height limit, but that goes without saying. We may be willing to trade Superman Ultimate Flight for The Joker though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mater Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 We may be willing to trade Superman Ultimate Flight for The Joker though. I'd trade it for a Zacspin, but those RMC 4th dimension coasters look so boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCT3Bross Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 That looks Awesome, if only Europe would get the RMC virus they never fail to amaze me and I want to try one not 1000 km away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Ice Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 That POV is absolutely breathtaking! It amazes me how it maintains its speed throughout the whole ride, especially for being a test run. So excited that I get to live 20 minutes away from that! Also a side note, I would suggest reading some of the Facebook comments left on the video. Some of them are just cringeworthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooterdoug Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Official POV! Opening day has to be coming soon (even if the park hasn't made an official announcement yet). I'm abstaining from watching it, as I want to wait to see it in real life, when I ride it the first time. Until then, it's taking tremendous willpower not to click the play button...

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 ^You're in denial, Doug. I've seen several different sites now say the 27th and that video said "End of May." Just accept the Memorial weekend crowds and come with me on that Saturday. Give in! Thanks for that POV, Robb! It is a lot better! Getting so dang excited for this thing.

Me and my friend are going Friday. might have to deal with kids complaining about not getting in because of the season pass rule but I assume some of them might have season passes. That's going to be awkward to watch. First day of joker's public operation and it's the last day SFDK is trying to lure out field trips before the season un-officially starts.

pdcon Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 They just posted a video on there facebook page, of them working on the entrance of the ride.. a clown? Now its a a carnival or something.

That's going to be awkward to watch. First day of joker's public operation and it's the last day SFDK is trying to lure out field trips before the season un-officially starts. Oh, I'll be going Friday as well! And then again on Saturday. I want to get on this thing as many times as possible in those two days, esp because they're both passholder days. Here's the video in question: [fbvideonew]https://www.facebook.com/discoverykingdom/videos/10154197312687743/[/fbvideonew] Personally, I LOVE it, and this is officially the most themed coaster SFDK has had, and I would argue, better themed than anything in any neighboring parks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanTPM Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 ^That looks pretty good, although they haven't actually done too much to the station itself i think the new paint is fitting and i like that they've added a little theming too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
