Sportsdude360 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 5 hours ago, AmyUD06 said: If by "interesting" you mean "wild dream that will not happen," maybe. It's far too long - almost 2,000 feet longer than the longest existing B&M dive and long enough to be in the top 25 in the world. I get being optimistic, but try to be realistic here. I agree....it won't be that long. But still, considering the amount of land being used, it's likely to be longer than any other Dive Coaster.

bert425 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I didn't get an ask NOT to say anything, so I will share. I spoke with Jeffrey Siebert multiple times during Roller Coaster Rodeo this weekend, and at one point I was teasing him how I hope the new coaster at SFOT is named "El Toro" , as it's in the Spain section of the park. Name it that just to watch enthusiasts heads' explode. he laughed and told me that in all seriousness, they *were* planning on using a name from elsewhere, but he insisted (and won that battle) for a unique name. --> so the new dive coaster will have a unique name in the chain. (similar to the way they went with Chubacabra for the Goliath rename at SFFT). I followed up asking if it's themed to bull fighting as it's in the Spain area, and they aren't planning on changing that. and the response was "you'll just have to wait and see" but yeah.. unique name for this new coaster. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prozach626 Posted yesterday at 12:41 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:41 AM I hope somehow the actual height of the ride is only 299 feet, but the drop is over 300 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainUnknown Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Because it would be an Orion-sized troll towards enthusiasts and it's fun to watch people's heads explode. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
