Dark Vampire Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Wow, that looks great! I wish they would do some maintenance here in Walibi Belgium like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianojohn Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Now if only they would apply the same care to MAINTAINING Gwazi. Sorry, but it is sad that a coaster with such potential is run so poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DailyBugle_JL Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Kumba looks amazing. A little paint goes a long way, its like brand new again. If it only took less than a month to paint Kumba then the coaster painting here in georgia should begin soon since the season starts in less than 4 weeks .

BarryH Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I think Kumba is a bit smoother with the new paint job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Is cause the paint makes for an awesome lubricant. I heard that it is actually running 15 seconds faster. Guy "I gotta bridge to sell ya as well. " Koepp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockwave Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I am at a loss for words right now. Did you believe me? Guy "Sarcasm is dead." Koepp Not entirely. That's why I said "If it's true". But hey, I'm not the sharpest tool right now. I'm in work till 11pm, I look like I've been dragged backwards through a hedge, my body clock is currently on California Time, and I don't care because I'm gonna be riding Kumba in a month.

coasterguy618 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 It is so cool how a new paint job can make a coaster look brand new. The new paint job looks sweet. Now, Medusa (East) needs one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJackson Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 ^ Haha, Medusa really does need a new paint job. Is there a reason Kumba's rails aren't painted? Is it just with the theming and appearance? I thought B&M allowed the rails on their coasters to be painted starting in 1999. Maybe I read the wrong websites.

To me it looks like they have been painted grey. It looks fantastic anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJackson Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Oh it was painted gray? It looked like it was still the metallic color. Afterall, most unpainted metel is gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECZenith Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 If they were painted teal, they would fade shortly anyways. I agree, Medusa East needs some love, maybe Snyder will bless us with a new coat of paint. Hey Snyder, while you're at it, retheme and repaint SROS SFNE. It deserves a better name.

Ok, yes, I got it and it doesn't need further discussion. ^ Haha, I think you made your point, and I agree with you up to where you want to retheme S:ROS. Six Flags doesn't have many major theming options and the Marvel theme (if that's what it is) seems to be the best choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I was just never one for superhero theming. I mean, I'm glad we didn't end up with a Darien clone like SFA, but why give it the same name? Theme to any of the other DC characters... like Steel. I agree with you they don't have many choices, I just feel they overdue the Superman thing between all the parks. And why is Batman not in the DC section... I'm just going to shut up now.
