RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Really, what made the decision was lawsuit abuse — or fake lawsuits — well, it’s quite a burden. You have to measure that with the risk.” ... According to San Bernardino County’s online civil court database, the park has been hit with small claims or personal injury suits every few years. All of the suits filed in the past 10 years appear to have been settled, vacated or otherwise dismissed. Sounds about right for SoCal. I do remember it being violent in the back, but I stand by my belief that you know what your body can and can't handle. If you just watch the ride you can see that it is violent. At what point do people need to just accept their own consequences of choosing to ride? Hey look a warning sign Sorry for the vertical Snapchat video, it's all I have. If it even plays.

Electerik Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Ooh, ooh, I have memories! Scandia Ontario with Erik & Smisty Fun little park. Shame to see it go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I never visited the park despite driving past it around a billion times over the years. I was always intrigued by the coaster and the drop tower but never cared enough to make an effort to visit. It's sad to see this park go, but also not too surprising.

Jew Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 have the feeling that Scandia knew about this for a couple of months. The rides were originally listed up for sale on Nov. 2, 2018, and doesn't appear that anything has sold yet. Since the drop tower, Tilt-a-whirl, and carousel have not been offered for sale, I am guessing that is all that they were planning to keep those few attractions. Of course they knew. The rides they wanted to save are likely being sent to their other properties. If Scandia Screamer is easy enough to transport, I can definitely see a fair company purchasing it.

SoCalJasonland Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I had an afternoon appt in Rancho Cucamonga on Friday, so I stopped by Scandia for some photos and see the demolition process. The demolition permits have been issued but I don't see a demolition date yet on the city website. All rides appear to have been removed except for the pirate galleon. I got these photos from the fence around the property.

DBru Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Wow! They packed everything up fast. Sad to see this one go. I thought the collection of rides was super fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalJasonland Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Scandia Victorville looks like they got the drop tower and a tilt-a-whirl from the closed Ontario location. Neither is listed on their site yet, but I had to drive near here for work today and took a couple of photos. Unfortunately, the park was closed, so I had to take the pictures from the fence. The Sacramento location added a Norway Flyer attraction but that didn't come from the closed Ontario location. The rest of the rides are still listed for sale. You better hurry if you want something www.rides4u.com/rides/used/packages/20 They are building a Tilt-A-Whirl in front of the batting cage Drop tower from Scandia Ontario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Glad to see the Larson tower got a new home. I just want to see someone buy the Scandia Screamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
