teacherkim Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 MODOT announced that WB I-44 will reopen by rush hour today (Thursday), so EB shouldn't be too far behind. It's also interesting that both Fox 2 News & the St. Louis Post Dispatch have both published articles addressing the "fake news" of SFSL being flooded. Westbound 44 and 109 both directions now open. No word on eastbound 44, but hopefully sometime tomorrow.
parkjunkie Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Almost 50 years and 1000 pages, yet still no hyper. And we'll be waiting another 50 years and 1000 pages just to get ANY type of non-clone steel
Sportsdude360 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 I'm thinking you guys are gonna get a Tilt-a-Whirl next year! That way you'll have the same flats as SFFT!
prozach626 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Of course we were rumored to get that 200 foot mule go round several years back and that never happened.
Rollercoaster Rider Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 I'm thinking you guys are gonna get a Tilt-a-Whirl next year! That way you'll have the same flats as SFFT! My Wish/ Guess: Makeover of Ninja with New Trains, Paint, and name/ Larson Flying Scooters
prozach626 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Respectable guess, but I don't think it's going to happen. Ninja's layout is so uninspiring compared to Blue Hawk. I could see the flyers as a realistic possibility. I still think a free spin will be in the works within a year or so, just because I think every park is going to get one.
SteveStL Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 I still think a free spin will be in the works within a year or so, just because I think every park is going to get one. Yep... unfortunately. It's the new Justice League
Danrarbc Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 The app says Boomerang is closed. And it was two weeks ago. It's it really still closed?
Danrarbc Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) It actually is closed though. It is also posted at the front gate. Waiting on a part from S&S? Edited May 7, 2017 by Danrarbc
Sportsdude360 Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Today they were doing some testing on Spinsanity Looks like you guys will be "whirling-and-hurling" pretty soon now! Or is that "spinning-and-spewing!
Danrarbc Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 The sun sets on one of the first 9pm days with good weather.

It's the new Justice League Indeed. Every park is going to have one. I hope ours gets announced this year so there is a little mystery the following ones. Assuming Spinsanity is well received I'd think at least one other park is going to get a disko next year. Nice pics of the park. Weather has been beautiful this weekend.
Sportsdude360 Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 ^ it is my firm belief that your getting a Tilt-a-Whirl to round out your flat ride collection. But an S&S 4D Freespin themed for the Riddler is a definite possibility.

It's the new Justice League I mean, at least the Justice Leagues are actually really fun rides. The free spin coasters are just so short and aren't a whole lot of fun. They are probably my least favorite cloned coasters. But I love that Six Flags is themeing them!

But an S&S 4D Freespin themed for the Riddler is a definite possibility. I still want our possible Free Spin to be themed to Two Face YES! Give it the theme and name of that old Invertigo coaster at Six Flags America! Two Face: The Flip Side! I think they could remove the Ninja and put a 4D Freespin there. And the Ninja takes up enough space that they could also probably put a flat ride in there, maybe a Tilt-A-Whirl and call it Harley Quinn's Spinsanity. And I'd love for them to remove the Joker Inc. and put a Zamperla Giant Discovery and name it Riddler's Revenge.
thisdougsforu Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Indeed. Every park is going to have one. This has been said about every clone made by Six Flags. So far the only ride close enough to fit this bill is the star flyers. Will several parks get S&S Free Spin coasters yes, will all no. There is no guarantee that SFSTL will get one, we might instead get the next coaster clone. But it is the next coaster clone, isn't it? Isn't that what its classified as? There may be no guarantee but if there were betting odds then it would for sure be a favorite. There also appears to be several prime spots where it could fit in. I know people here like to say destroy the Ninja but I'd think Tidal Wave would make a heck of a lot more sense than axing a coaster. That back corner with TW always seems dead. Putting a freespin over there means each corner of the park is anchored with a popular attraction, and Ninja would maybe even see an uptick in riders with a new attraction like that in its vicinity (Spinsanity is right over there as well).

What's with all this Tilt-a-Whirl talk?
