Sportsdude360 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 11 hours ago, Lotologist492 said: My guess is a full re-theming and rehab. There are many other Intamin launching coasters, including another Mr. Freeze at SFStl, Poltergeist and Joker's Jynx, and Flight of Fear at two Cedar Fair parks. One would think parts availability is not an issue. And since the chain has been refurbing and re-theming coasters (including the aforementioned Poltergeist at SFFT) in lieu of adding new attractions, this would certainly fit. This ride is simply too popular to just remove it. These are Premier Rides coasters, not Intamin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbatboy Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 ^good news! Hopefully a nice retheme, and some new (un-comfort collar) Premier trains! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that some sort of major rehab is afoot! Good news! Maybe new trains, possible re-theme to Two Face with one train launching forwards and the other backwards! Lots of possibilities! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP_RULES Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Nooooooooooo! No no no! I’m… I…. What the f#€k. The reverse blast was way better than the original, I love being blasted in reverse. Looking down that tall slender rod before falling back onto it cannot be recreated. Hopefully this just means a launch upgrade so it is quicker than before and more reliable. If SFStL loses Freeze I think I’ll go ahead and give up on life. It’snotabadomenit’snotabadomenit’snotabadomen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my point remains the same in that there are numerous other Premier launching coasters in operation. But - it may be a moot point now that SF has acknowledged this is going to be a refurb, enhancement, or re-theme, or all three! This has long been one of my favorite rides. In fact, I rode the copy at SFStl on my very first visit to another (not my home) SF park, and this was in 1998. Freeze still holds up well after all these decades.

Bamwa Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Would it have been that hard to have a train run each direction so the rider could choose? Oh I forgot Texas took away the right to choose. Dang. So much for freedom. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillseeker4552 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Despite all the jokes about this thing taking an absurd amount of time to actually open, this will be a very nice addition to the park. I'm very happy they added the turn table for 2-train ops and on those crazy hot summer days I'm sure it will still draw a massive line. So many parks could use a new modern water coaster like this. This would be perfect at Carowinds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
