SFAWs shoot the chute is also there now! http://users.adelphia.net/~sixflags/GEx.jpg - At TGE http://www.oldastroworld.com/album/slides/DSCN0354.html - At SFAW http://www.sixflagshouston.com/photos/TidalWave/tidal_wave - SFAW
coasterfreak101 Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 Those Double Drops look really cool. Do they give airtime? Anyways, congrats! Looks like everyone close to TGE now has a splashy ride SPLASHY!!!!! *POST #800!!!!!*
chaos Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 Tidal Wave at SFMM doesn't, and I don't think this one does either. That would be awesome, but the boats would have to have something more than just a lapbar that goes all the way across.

coasterguy618 Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Good for TGE. They needed a couple new rides.
dropzone265 Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 The double drop on Congo Falls at PKI gives some airtime.
DerekRx Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Thats good news. I was just thinking "don't they already have one?" and the answer is no! Any idea where they'll put it. I think it'd make the most sense to put it in the back of the park near Comet and the water rides. Hopefully they won't go pull a total Six Flags and just plop it down in the old parking lot like they are the SLC!
coasterfreak101 Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Aw, the world can't have enough parking lot rides I mean, look at Scream!!! So much theming I want a Double Srop I want airtime I WANT TO GO TO A PARK!! Have fun on this thing
BiCoastal Kid Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 UGH!!! WHY would they take the SLC and NOT the SK loopers???????
viking86 Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 UGH!!! WHY would they take the SLC and NOT the SK loopers??????? Probably because the SLC looks more impressive to the GP and its the ride that will bring most people to the park. But yeah, the SK loopers are much better rides so hopefully they will find a new home soon.
Stitch Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Finally a small Six Flags park getting beefed up with rides!

astroworldfan Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Those Double Drops look really cool. Do they give airtime? Anyways, congrats! Looks like everyone close to TGE now has a splashy ride SPLASHY!!!!! *POST #800!!!!!* Its been a quite a few years since I rode Tidal Wave. It was closed EVERY time that I went. Anyway, you can get some airtime, but it was better before they "improved" the restraints. Of the similar rides, I think this was one of the better ones.
nyguy Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 I've never ridden Tidal Wave either. It should be a nice addition to TGE. Canobiefan already posted some of my pics of the ride on-site, there are more on w Tidal Wave and Serial Thriller never saw snow before! hahaha[/url]
