HARLEYGUYJB Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 ^now if only they were actually getting 2 loopers... One is going to be called "FireBall Reverse Blast ™" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithPlus1 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 ^now if only they were actually getting 2 loopers... One is going to be called "FireBall Reverse Blast ™" Dueling FireDragons? They would take at least 2 more days to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZIP Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Fireball is currently half a circle and probably would have been completed today, if not for the high winds, it will not open until mid-May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SixFlagsAstroworld Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Randomly thought tip: when riding the Ninja, avoid by wearing a protective headband. (soccer ones work best) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beni_Rodriguez Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I did not know they had a new ride called Cubs Thunder! http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/lake-county-news-sun/news/ct-lns-six-flags-bet-st-1016-20151015-story.html Go Cubs Go!

WOFanatic Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 SDC sent out a survey. Either a launched Mack Spinner or a gigantic B&M Diver with 4 inversions....2017 HEY, at least we have Fireball!

Vonni Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I see a lot of people talk about head banging on Ninja. For me, the restraints hurt my shoulders and collar bones. I've never noticed them bother my head or ears. Its actually bruised my shoulders before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 It depends mostly on height. If you're taller than average, you'll hit your shoulders rather than head on the restraint. At least we all agree that it causes pain. That's enough reason to get something better! Let's see, what also has inversions, a 48" height requirement, and has been super popular at, say, Silver Dollar City and SF Great America?

kjpotter Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I'm short (5'2'') and I have an issue banging my ears on the restraints on the Ninja. Well I used to, you couldn't pay me enough to go on it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prozach626 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 ^Speak for yourself. I'm game if you give me a crisp $10 bill (approximately the cost of one ice cold beer) to ride that rattle trap. Some folks don't know the value of a dollar, I guess. Is our loop going to have those cheesy flame cutouts on it? ^Your getting a carnival ride! When I spew hate in this thread, at least it's because I'm a frustrated local. The carnival ride joke was tired two years ago. Go back to your own thread... wherever you came from. Also, there is no need to tell us where you came from. I promise no one cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
