2010 Speculation

[nitrofan]

What do you think the park is getting in 2010?

Will we finally get a new ride in the dry park? Is it another water slide? What about Northwest Territory? This is the place to discuss!

[Austin]

My friend who works there is saying that Twisted Twins will be gone, and ive heard reports of us getting a Tony Hawk Big Spin Coaster. She also said that Mile high would stay, and that we would be getting some rides unique to SFKK only for the parks 25th anniversary but we are already guaranteed a flat ride in 2011 for the Six Flags 50th anniversary.

[nitrofan]

^Unless there is something we don't know about, I think Twisted Twins is just as good as gone.

I see no way that Mile High Falls is coming back. First, in those photos that Cody from the Facebook page put on TPR, the lift motor and chain is gone. Second, several of these have been removed from other Six Flags parks due to high maintnance costs, and many more are rumored to be removed.

I think we will probably get a slide/flat in 2010, and a Tony Hawk coaster in 2011.

[Austin]

Yea lol.

Actually the motor is still there but the chain was off because it snapped. They still say its being renovated and all my sources say its going to stay but i want it gone because it takes up too much space.

I dont want another slide lol. We need a flat. the waterpark is the best in th area other then Holiday Worlds.

[nitrofan]

I think a Splash Battle would be really nice in its place. It's family fun, which SFI says they want, it gets you wet, and it's well-themed.

[Austin]

Thats the only exception to what i said about the waterpark but it would be like BR unless they put in storage bins for this. Plus it would beat Holiday World to it. lol.

[nitrofan]

Thats the only exception to what i said about the waterpark.

A Splash Battle wouldn't be inside the water park.

[Austin]

I know i consider it to be part of the waterpark since its water. I believe they should make a exception to Blizard river about having to wear shirts and shoes while on the ride though. i always end up with soaked tennis shoes

[rcfreak339]

Mile High and Twisted Twins are as good as gone in my opinion....Hopefully a good coaster will replace it. A Tony Hawk Big Spin would be great!

[Austin]

THBS and a Splash battle would be better. add in a few flats and bam a park 100x better.

[rcfreak339]

THBS and a Splash battle would be better. add in a few flats and bam a park 100x better.

Kentucky Kingdom needs to add soemthing big, that would really draw people and a Splash Battle isn't the answer...Pluse even if they put a GCI in the back theres probaly still enough room for a Splash Battle and a couple of flats.

[say hi]

Honestly, I don't see sfkk getting anything new within the next year. Maybe a flat to get rid of the empty mulch mountain where Rainbow used to be (the zeppelin ride from northwest...anyone?), but that's it. I wouldn't expect anything substantial until 2011 when Six Flags goes all out and gives every one of their parks a new attraction for the 50th...but who knows if that will even happen.

[Austin]

Remove MHF and put a spalsh battle in its place. Its the perfect ride to replace it. 1. you keep a water ride, 2. its high-tech and a new type of ride 3. There isnt one in the surrounding area. Holiday world doesnt have it, Kings island dont got it. the only parks i know in the are is Dollywood and thats in Tennessee. and if they took out TT, added in a THBS, they would still have room for a GCI or at least a terminator.

^ well when the northwest territory re-opens we all saw what ahppened when it just had TT in it. It wasnt popular and less people went back there since there was only 1 ride there. So when it does open it needs to have at least 2 major rides. and some flats to bring people to that area.

[say hi]

but...it would have a major ride for it to be around if it were moved there, you have enterprise,himalaya, and thrill park theater right in the surrounding area. If anything it could be a people eater attraction and help to stifle the line times on the aforementioned rides. I highly doubt the park will ever get a year that has multiple flats and a new major ride...i mean, considering that greezed came here in 2003 and it really wasn't that new of a ride to begin with. Its been forever since sfkk has actually gotten a new and exclusive ride. I like the discussion about a splash battle attraction, the one in Dollywood is absolutely great for families. I just really couldn't see where it would go or fit in...or what they'd even theme it with.

[Austin]

The zeppelins are boring. If they pu t a ride in Rainbows old spot it would need to be new and fun.

The splash battle can go where Mile high is. theres one at great America i believe or great adventure that is themed to pirates

[say hi]

It may not be the most exciting ride, but at least it isn't rotting back in NW...right? If anything it could just be a placeholder until something new comes along. A bayou themed splash battle could be pretttty cool. if they rethemed belgian village to go more along the lines of what swamp water jacks and had it all lead up to the new splash attraction. Thunder Run can kind of fit in too, due to the whole trees and forest and wood thing it has going for it. oh well, its just wishful thinking.

[Austin]

Hmm good idea. Thunder runs theme is your delivering moonshine to your customers but your being chased by the cops. Like that dukes of hazzard episode(s).

Having that kind of a themed ride in the belgian village doesnt make much sense.

and then splashwater jacks is right near it. so it wouldnt be 2 hard.

[nitrofan]

I'm probably going to get killed for saying this, but I think if we get a new THRILL coaster (GCIs and THBS don't count), I think we should get a larger coaster that another park is done with. Great Adventure will probably be done with GASM in a few years, and Superman in not too long. That is more of a long-term idea, but I think everyone can agree that SFKK needs a new thrill coaster.

[Austin]

Cant add them. We have a height restriction. Chang barely fits under the height restriction.

[nitrofan]

Cant add them. We have a height restriction. Chang barely fits under the height restriction.

There are plenty of coasters that are shorter then Chang. Superman is one of them.

[Austin]

Yes but the section where chang is the height restriction is high than were the Twins are. The reason for that is because the Twins sit directly in front of a runway, chang doesnt.

[nitrofan]

Yes but the section where chang is the height restriction is high than were the Twins are. The reason for that is because the Twins sit directly in front of a runway, chang doesnt.

Do you know exactly what the limit is?

[palmer]

I have never been to SFKK ,but i think that it needs a big coaster. I don't think 2010 cause of this piece of :censored: known as the economy. 2011 is possible, but i think a new land, flat, and/or water ride (either a flume or maybe a splash battle or even a new type).

1st ever post! :birthday:

[Austin]

lol. I think in the time it would take to tear down TT they could put up a THBS there. That would be a major addition to the park since the last big ride was Greezed lightnin in 2003.

And michael i dont really know but its under 150ft.

[DBru]

Nothwest Territory's height restriction is a little under 100ft.

[Austin]

Ah knew it was very much. so I dont think you can add those rides in back there.

[nitrofan]

Just checked, and Twisted Twins is 80', so it's probably 80'-100'. That means we could fit any of these rides:
Tony Hawk- 53'
Evel Knevel- 82'

Either would be good

[Austin]

hmm.. how tall is terminator lol.

Just checked. Terminator is 95ft. so its iffy. still fits under the 100 ft restriction though.

[nitrofan]

hmm.. how tall is terminator lol.

Just checked. Terminator is 95ft. so its iffy. still fits under the 100 ft restriction though.

Evel Knevel would definately fit though.

[Asa]

Either would be good

or both haha

[Austin]

Terminator definately. Its got fire.

[Asa]

hmm.. how tall is terminator lol.

Just checked. Terminator is 95ft. so its iffy. still fits under the 100 ft restriction though.

I have to agree that it is iffy because what about the lights and such that are on the lifthill (as per say if they are 6 feet tall That would make it taller than 100 feet.

[Austin]

the lights are included. the drop is less then 90 though so it would fit. Id take terminator anyday lol. the pictures Robb and them took of the media day was insane.

[rcfreak339]

^I would take any GCI....

[Austin]

Evil Knievel is nothing compared to Terminator.

[rcfreak339]

A Evil Knievel theme really doesn't fit a GCI better either haha..But the effects on Terminator looks incredible for a wooden coaster, but Iv'e heard that the audio doesn't work all the time which can almost ruin the theme. There both GCI's...they have to be great, you have no idea which is better but I have to say when I rode Evil it blew me away regardless of theme or effects, and no doubt Terminator would be a awesome ride as well. This topic is...:off topic:

[Austin]

The audio what audio? it just says they're coming and take the tunnel. thats really not audio.

[rcfreak339]

Terminator Salvation has trains that play audio that is synced to the ride.

[Jp]

I think the park would do great with a THBS but i can see it built for the 2012 season. The only thing that I don't like about it is the low ridership.

[Austin]

Lol that wouldnt really matter the park doesnt get much ppl each day. lines are usually a 10 minute wait for anything

[DBru]

Not on concert days...weekends can get bad in July/early August, too.

[Austin]

Well yea with the exception of the concert days. Thats why i never go on the weekends.

[Jp]

I think should host a Holiday In The Park along with SFA, SFOG, SFSL. I hate that the Great Escape park is gettin' one.

[Austin]

Never heard of them, are they good?

[Jp]

It's just an event just like Fright Fest, but during the christmas time. Only SFOT, SFDK, and SFFT does it.

[Austin]

we cant here lol. Those parks are in a better climate.

Here in KY the weather changes quickly and the winters get down into the 20's sometimes. And the snow like it showed last year can be torrential. Not a good idea. Now if they had one in like spring it might work

[Jp]

Then why are they doing one in New York this year. (The Great Escape)

[nitrofan]

Then why are they doing one in New York this year. (The Great Escape)

I think that one is more kid-based, and has very little to do with the rides. I do agree that they should at least add it to SFOG, but this is a SFKK thread.

[Austin]

While I'd like to see it, if the rumors hold true the park will get major construction over winter injust about all of the next 3 years

[DBru]

SFKK could definitely have a winter event. Beech Bend has held successful Christmas events for the past few seasons.

[Theripper45]

Mile High Falls and twins i think should re-open.
Then tear down T-2
Then replace with Tony Hawk's Big Spin!

[Austin]

The twins arent the best coasters.

Another reason Mile High will go is because the chute the chute rides like MHF cost a bunch to operate each season.

[nitrofan]

I think MHF is pretty much gone. Six Flags has taken several out, and several others are rumored to be removed soon.

[DBru]

Yet others, such as the one at SFStL, have just been refurbished.

I don't think anyone really knows what is to become of this area. Anyone.

[rcfreak339]

^Yeah, I think no one really knows what's going on except for the people behind the scenes.

[razor12]

Twins are done. Didn't they send the trains to SFStL?

As for a larger coaster to fit i would go with an intamin impulse. Yes, SGAm has one but with the height restriction it could work like SFDK's does with the angle. That makes it different from SFGAm's too. It would be a good, compact, and cheaper thrill.

THBS would be another great addition.

As for holiday in the park. I don't think SFoG runs most of their rides because of the cold, but I may be wrong.

Yes, the trains are at SFStL

If you are suggesting the Impulse for TT's spot, that wouldn't work. Even the short version of V2 (SFDK) is 150 feet. The heigth restrictions are under 100' in Twisted twins' spot. It would be cool to see an impulse somewhere else, but I would want the full size version like at SFGAm.

It doesn't get that cold in Atlanta. Besides, SFGE is doing it, so I'm sure a park in the south could at least pull something together.

[Austin]

It really wouldnt work. The weather here can change from sunny and no rain clouds to horrible in a instant. July it never broke 90 degrees then august 2nd it was around 98 and the day before it was in the 70's its bizarre up here.

[Daniel Taylor]

A new wooden coaste!

[Austin]

No lol. A new version of T2 :D I love T2 now lol.

[nitrofan]

No lol. A new version of T2 :D I love T2 now lol.

2 Questions:

1) How do you love T2?
2) How do you make a new version of T2? That would be called a B&M Invert. lol

[Austin]

No its fine, it just needs new trains. You will get thrown around alot. Big guys like me(6'1" and 225lbs.) arent easily thrown around like rag dolls so we fit the seats better. The new trains touch the rails on the top and bottom unlike the current one which touches on the top and when it turns the bottom touches causing a bunch of roughness. all it needs is the new version of the trains and it would be perfect.

[nitrofan]

I never thought about it, but maybe weighing only 120 lbs does make it worse since you can be thrown around more easily.

[Austin]

lol i rode it and i never got any kind of headache at all.

[cory]

I think one thing the park needs to do is buy space cause thats the reason new rides havent been comin out because there really no more room. But i do hope we get a new ride cause i go every day and the same rides get boring and on screamscape.com it says all the reports of a tony hawk spin coaster is false but it would be cool if they get that. But i really do hope our park gets a new ride

[Austin]

The park owns all the land behind T2 and chang

[nitrofan]

Screamscape.com it says all the reports of a tony hawk spin coaster is false but it would be cool if they get that. But i really do hope our park gets a new ride

There are no reports, it's just what fans have been saying they want.

I question Screamscape's reports too. The only people who can confirm or deny rumors is the park, and I doubt the park sent them an E-Mail just to tell him SFKK wasn't getting a THBS.

[Theripper45]

My idea is,
Tear Down T-2 right after the park closes for winter.
Replace with tony hawk's big spin.
Open Twisted Twins and Mile high falls and Tony Hawk's Big spin in 2010.
(Comeback)year.(New decade)
???Anyone agree
i hate T-2
Chang kicks butt.
keep it stand-up!

[Austin]

T2 is one of the best coasters in the park.

[rcfreak339]

The park owns all the land behind T2 and chang

No, They do not. They own some but not all of it.

[Austin]

The undeveloped land.

[rcfreak339]

The undeveloped land.
Yes, they don't own all of it. I think there are houses back there and are all occupied.

[Austin]

1 house and abut 200-300 yards behind chang is 2 garage buildings.

[rcfreak339]

1 house and abut 200-300 yards behind chang is 2 garage buildings.

Doesn't matter, Six Flags does not own that land.

[Austin]

all i did was answer your question. never said they owned every bit of it.

[rcfreak339]

all i did was answer your question. never said they owned every bit of it.

They don't own any of it.

[cory]

I think they should keep mile high falls because it will cost more to demolish it then fix it and that rides been fun cause you dont got to even ride to get wet cause you can get on the bridge and get wet. I like that ride alot and its way better than splash battle but twisted twins should be torn down. I think they should put tony hawk big spin coaster or just any rollocoaster that is under the height restriction. ALso put the ride thats at holiday world the liberty launch or some kind of ride that goes in the air that drop but from a different company. Cause those kind of rides dohnt really take alot of space

There are no reports, it's just what fans have been saying they want.

I question Screamscape's reports too. The only people who can confirm or deny rumors is the park, and I doubt the park sent them an E-Mail just to tell him SFKK wasn't getting a THBS.

yea your right i always thought about that i wish six falgs kentucky its self can jus give us information instead of just listening to screamscape

was screamscape true about hurricane harbor buying are water park

[Austin]

uhm what? how can they buy the water park?

[palmer]

^^ZOFMG it's a Cory!!!!!!

[nitrofan]

Ok, the Moderator in me is coming out.

Cory, please try to combine all of your thoughts in 1 post instead of 4. There is no reason to put a different post for every idea you have. I'm going to try to merge them, but in the future, please just put all of your thoughts in 1 post. Also, please don't apologize for spelling issues. We have an edit button so you can go back and fix the errors.

And Palmer, I'm pretty sure it's not the Cory you are thinking of.

[palmer]

o, it looks like it. I'll see if it is or not.

[Austin]

lol yea. cory hurricane harbor is six flags name for their waterparks. only SFKK and i think 1 other park is using the splashwater kingdom name

[Jp]

lol yea. cory hurricane harbor is six flags name for their waterparks. only SFKK and i think 1 other park is using the splashwater kingdom name


The Great Escape uses that name!

[Austin]

couldnt remember lol

[Austin]

What? no one is talking about you

[SFA Regular]

Hello, I am new to the site. I am from www.coaster-net.com and I happen to be a dedicated member there. I am pleased to be apart of this site now. How is everyone doing? I have heard a lot of good and bad things about this park but I happened to join the site to see what regular visitors of the park have to say about it. My home park happens to be Six Flags America which is located in Largo, Maryland, about 10-15 minutes from my house. My park has been going through a lot of the same things that SFKK has with problems such as ride breaks downs and going years at a time without any new coasters.

But without any further delay, here are some of my speculations. My speculation is that SFI is going to start launching more indoor attractions for all the parks starting in 2011. Reason why is because Mark Shapiro, has made numerous statements about SF parks becoming more like Disney where there are more family attractions. This happens to be a good thing in my opinion. Indoor attractions seem to attract a lot of people because they normally follow a story. Rides like Revenge of The Mummy, Space Mountain, Curse of Dark Kastle, and Indiana Jones all have great story lines to them. The special effects that are added with the rides only enhance it further more to riders.

Without jumping to the gun, I don't think SF parks will receive anything like the rides I mentioned but they will gradually move into that direction once the company gets out of debt. In 2011 it is rumored that a Green Latern movie is going to be released in theaters. 2011 happens to be the chains 50th anniversary. Now with both those upcoming events being said, is it possible that SFI may put in money to design a indoor Green Lantern ride?

[Austin]

hmm.. thats a new twist on the ideas of what could be added to SFKK, or any park for that matter. Welcome to the site by the way, glad to have you!

I dont think anything major will be added until 2012 for SFKK though since it would be the parks 25th anniversary.

[SFA Regular]

Doesn't matter what anniversary a park has. All that matters it the chains 50th anniversary during the 2011 season that will be celebrated. So my prediction is every park will receive a new ride, weather it be a family coaster or a thrill ride. I would so love to see some more indoor attractions be built at the parks that are a lot better than the new Dark Knight indoor.

Also some more Bizzaro transformations done to other rides at Six Flags parks.

[Austin]

I wouldnt mind to see Chang be changed to bizzaro. Maybe turn the back section into DC universe like SFNO had. Would mean changing T2's name though.

[SFA Regular]

Not sure if you guys would want it but do you think people would ride Superman Tower of Power if you had one built by S&S instead of the notorious Intamin style drop that you previously had?

Also do you mind if I create a topic about future ride ideas for Six Flags Parks? And if so, where do I create it at?

[Austin]

Sure create one in the rumors section.

Hmm.. You mean the ones like the dual tower new orleans had? One was launched, other was dropped.

[SFA Regular]

Yes between that and the one at Six Flags Over Texas. If people saw that it was a new ride design I don't think they would be afraid to ride it. The name may make them a little skeptical but ride attendants would be there to tell them its a new design and has been tested safe.

[Austin]

Maybe a different name. Isn't there one called krypton something? I believe its in SFGAm. It would have to be built near Chang or the front gate.

[SFA Regular]

If your talking about Superman: Krypton Coaster, that's at Six Flags Fiesta Texas.

[Austin]

Idk lol I've never been to many other Six Flags parks. How expensive are they by the way?

[SFA Regular]

Most of them have different prices. Great Adventure wasn't too bad and Over Texas wasn't too bad from what I remember. The better the park is the more you pay. But season pass's can get you in for free at any Six Flags park.

[Austin]

I meant how much does one of the dual towers costs.

[SFA Regular]

Not sure how much they would cost not. I can't imagine that it cost more than a coaster. If anything it should be a lot cheaper.

[Austin]

maybe 1-1.5 million?

[SFA Regular]

For an S&S Tower Drop, I'm thinking maybe 10 or 15 million. Look it up online.

[nitrofan]

I would love to see a drop tower, but I just don't think SFKK would put another one in. I much prefer the S&S towers to Intamin, but I don't think it would look good on the park's reputation. Many people make up rumors about people dying on rides when they really haven't. What would happen when they have a reason?

Many people make up rumors about people dying on rides when they really haven't. What would happen when they have a reason?

People have done the same thing at SFA. On every ride break down that happens here, someone always mentions that there was a death, and really there wasn't. The most recent ride accident we had was either back in 2007 or 2008 when a girl stood up on a kiddie ride and fell off. Now I remember, it was back in 2007 when I was at Two-Face and saw helicopters and when I got home I saw what happened on the news.

But back on topic, I do think they could get away with adding a drop ride. It would just have to be an S&S Tower rather than an Intamin. Or if you don't what that, they could build you the Dark Knight indoor coaster for just 7.5 million. But I have heard a lot of negative comments about the Dark Knight indoor coasters at Great America and Great Adventure. A lot of people don't like them. For the amount of time you have to wait, they said it's not worth it. All it is, is a indoor mouse coaster in the dark.

[palmer]

^^Sasquatch @ Great Escape has got great reviews. That's S&S. It would be nice, but why double the same ride?

^Dark Knight ok, not amazing, yet not that sucky. The themeing is really good. The pre-show and inside is cool. SFGAdv's TDK had "hidden" effects added, such as a disco ball like light of weird colors at the end and a truck that pops out and makes an annoying sound. If SFKK was bigger and had two more coasters, TDK would be great, but it really doesn't fit in SFKK.

[Austin]

Doubling the ride like SFNO is very common with S&S towers.

1. reduces wait time since there is 2 towers
2. provides a different experience on each one since one launches you, and the other drops you.

[nitrofan]

Some S&S drop rides have as many as 4 towers. It just depends on the park and how high their attendance is and how much money they are willing to pay.

I think that Batman: TDK would be great at SFKK, but we already have a wild mouse. I would be open to enclosing Roadrunner in a building and adding effects and a pre-show and theming it to Batman though.

While TDK isn't the best coaster in the world, it's better than a plain wild mouse sitting outside. The only reason people complained so much is that the park made it sound like it was another monster like El Toro or Kingda Ka.

I really enjoyed TDK, and I think it would go great at SFKK, but don't add a second wild mouse to do it.

[palmer]

Ding Ding Ding! Maybe an El Toro at SFKK. It is considered to the great wooden roller coaster, even though the ride isn't like a wooden coaster. Yes, you have thunder run, but many parks have two wooden coasters. SFMM has Cololous and TS:TR. SFGA has American Eagle and Great American Scream Machine. SFGAdv has El Toro and Rolling Thunder. A GCI or an Intamin AG woodie would be good.

[nitrofan]

^That would be amazing! I just don't see Shapiro shedding that kind of money though.

[Austin]

cant add anything taller then 100 ft in the back section of the park.

[nitrofan]

^^Launch coaster!!!!! (Even though Greezed Lightnin' is a launch)

I'm not quite sure why we're talking about major coasters when Six Flags is Bankrupt...

EDIT: I'm not saying you can't talk about it, I just don't agree with it.

[palmer]

Well it's the only "Thrilling" coaster that's under Tigerace's 100ft limit.

[nitrofan]

^The limit is only in the back of the park, so they could probably work something out for a major coaster in the front of the park if they really wanted to.

[palmer]

Possible. A Hyper would be nice.

[nitrofan]

Possible. A Hyper would be nice.

Yes it would, but with the recent news, I'll be surprised if Six Flags makes it to 2011 without selling any of their assets.

[rcfreak339]

A hyper is not coming to SFKK period.

[Austin]

they cant add anything to the front of the park. and that restriction is on both sides.

[rcfreak339]

they cant add anything to the front of the park. and that restriction is on both sides.
Theres a 200 foot height restriction on the whole park only on the northwest side is there a 100 foot height restriction....Due to the west runway ramp.

[Austin]

Besides theres no place to build a coaster of that size on the main half.

[nitrofan]

Besides theres no place to build a coaster of that size on the main half.

Would you have ever guessed Tatsu going where it is before it was announced? The point is, they can build a coaster pretty much anywhere that want to. Take out a few flats for the station, make the lift go up over the front of the park, make the actual ride go over the parking lot.

I'm not saying it will happen, I'm not saying I think it will happen, I'm not saying I want it to happen. I'm just saying it is possible. If a park really wants a Hyper, they will get one.

[cory]

I think what they need to do is have an inside roller coaster, and take down the movie theater and put it in there like Star Chaser and make sure its dark. I think that will bring alot of hype in the park, don't you agree?

[nitrofan]

^That's an interesting idea, but I don't think the theater is the place to do it. A lot of people like the theater, and they just put a new show in it.

If they were to do an indoor coaster, I would either want Roadrunner Express converted to Batman: The Dark Knight or a custom coaster in Northwest Territory.

[palmer]

How about both?

[nitrofan]

How about both?

That works too. lol

[palmer]

Can this apart of the "2011 extravaganza"?

[nitrofan]

Can this apart of the "2011 extravaganza"?

What??????

[palmer]

I did a list of the parks in one of the threads that explained all the parks possible 2011 awards because they were celebrating 50 years of six flags or something

[cory]

wow i just read on screamscape that the water park is replacing chang and chang is going to sfga. now im not sure if this is right it seems the whole park might be a water park soon but i rather them replace T2 than chang

[MadCard05]

No way would Chang be replaced. T2 yes, Chang no.

I would assume that part of the rumor is true so Six Flags is throwing out false tid bits to either figure out who the leak is, or to confuse the general public as to what their actual plan entails.

[Sfguy]

Taking out Chang would be a great 50th anniversary present for SFKK!

[nitrofan]

wow i just read on screamscape that the water park is replacing chang and chang is going to sfga. now im not sure if this is right it seems the whole park might be a water park soon but i rather them replace T2 than chang

It said that it was rumored that they MIGHT replace Chang. It wasn't confirmed.

Also, we now have a thread for Chang Removal discussion in the Rumors section, so lets keep 2011 Chang discussion there and 2010 speculation here.

[elvisboogens]

It would be entirely possible for them to build a 200 ft. plus coaster if they built down into the ground instead of up into the air, thus not violating air space restrictions. Just thinking aloud about a previous comment.

[Austin]

True but that would push up the price drastically. So i dont think that six flags is willing to pay that price for six flags. Possible that it could happen but not likely

[palmer]

^Well, not next year. But next year they'll lighten up for the Big 50 B-day. They said they want all the parks to get additions. Possible for 2011, very doubtful for 2010, plus the money not quite hold up for a 200 ft coaster (probably be a hyper. I don't think a Six Flags coaster reaches 200 ft and has an inversion.)

Yet that goes with the "Height Restriction". What might help is a B&M Floorless. A normal is 175ft. They all ready have a coaster over the 150 limit (Chang). Maybe they could bump it up to 200ft and get the Floorless.

[Austin]

maybe, id rather see some kind of real launch coaster.

[nitrofan]

If we are getting an underground coaster of that scale, construction would probably be starting in early June. I guess it's possible, but not likely.

[palmer]

^If they attemped an underground coaster, started this second, they would finish by June/July.

[elvisboogens]

Im not sure I think it's a good idea that they do anything underground, but physically, they could.

One thing at a time, though. I think they need to build another foot bridge or four before they do anything else.

[nitrofan]

^If they attemped an underground coaster, started this second, they would finish by June/July.

Not Happening

If SFKK gets an underground B&M in 2010 (unless it's some new kiddie design) then I will start a Nitrofan is stupid thread where you can all comment and won't get banned for it.

[Austin]

Lol. I had a ida for the enovation fo northwest, id have to scrap that plan now -.-. But it called for a underground walkway under thunder run where it would meet the path by the dragsters.

[palmer]

^Well, you found a way not to fix Northwest Territory. Brigthen up. :)

[cory]

On screamscape it reported that Mountain High Falls might be opening back up for the season of 2010 but has not been confirmed yet. Hopefully it is true

[nitrofan]

That would be great if they did!

I just hope they don't open it as Aquaman Splashdown.

[elvisboogens]

I just noticed that on the main Thrillrides page on the SFKK website that there's a big picture of people riding TT. Has that picture always been on that page? I've never noticed it before. It makes me more hopeful that they'll reopen it next year.

[Austin]

Yea its been there all year. I very very very highly doubt it will reopen. ever. I got a feeling they will turn that end into the waterpark expansion

[elvisboogens]

I've been convinced that it'll be torn down for a long time. I just never noticed the picture and was suurprised. Bummer.

[Austin]

Its kinda confusing to I mean its been closed for 2 years and they act liek its still open. I bet when they announce chang being removed at the end of fright fest, they will announce TT, but i could be wrong. Just my hunch, nothing to support it tho.

[palmer]

I'm surprised no one is thinking about the possible hole in ThrillsVille . :)

[elvisboogens]

I'm surprised no one is thinking about the possible hole in ThrillsVille . :)

I'm not sure I follow, sorry.

[Austin]

Thrillsville is the themed section where chang, T2 and Blizzard river are in SFKK.

[palmer]

^Thank you for describing ThrillsVille. This may be related to [name will remain sercret because you should know (jk it rhymes with rang)] rumor.

[elvisboogens]

Why did I never know that section of the park was called Thrillsville?

[palmer]

It's ok, i looked on SixFlags.com to get it. I have known for about 3 weeks. :)

[nitrofan]

I'm surprised no one is thinking about the possible hole in ThrillsVille . :)

Are you talking about the hole that Chang would leave if removed?

EDIT: Nevermind

I really hope it's another coaster.

[Austin]

Lol we wont know for at least 2 years -.-

[elvisboogens]

It occurs to me that if they can get Chang completely removed by the 8th of November, they could have something in it's place before next season. I know they probably wont, But they could.

[cory]

Yesterday i went to kentucky kingdom while i was on thunder run i notice that on there was a couple of people that was working on Mile High Falls. I thought i was seeing things but somebody behind me saw it to and so did my brother. This probaly is a clue about it opening back up.

[elvisboogens]

They were preparing something for frightfest. They were doing something with spiderwebs. I saw them too. They had Mile High Falls completely blocked off, but I'm thinking they're going to direct people back in that direction. I'm assuming that's where woods of the wicked will be.

[cory]

Oh looks like they messing with the lift because look like they messing with tge motor

[rcfreak339]

I went to SFKK yesterday and I swear I think they have built a new permanent buolding near the wooden fence right beside Flying Dutchman.

[MadCard05]

That would be a big negative. They might have moved the tricker treat sheds back there in preperation for Fright Fest, so they can work on them before placing them in their spots, but no buildings were built back in Northwest this year.

That section of the park is not called Thrillsville.

[Austin]

Possible for wicked woods. They had a cabin out there in 2006 that you walked through/ I know last year it was a part of nightmare inc. Just a possibility

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------

Lol mad, that section is called thrillsville.

[palmer]

No it's ThrillsVille (v is capitalized)

[Austin]

Oh my bad


lol.

[MadCard05]

No it's ThrillsVille (v is capitalized)

Oh wait, yes. Front side is like the Six Flags Circle, Chang area is ThrillsVille, then you have Belgian Village, and Northwest Territory.

[palmer]

See, i know my SFKK, i i haven't been there. I love the internet.

[Jp]

Hey today, I had no school and I was looking around RCDB.

I have notice that most of the press realesses are in septembre. I took the average of that and I have notice that most of them come out between Sept. 20th - Sept. 30th and thats this week. Could the annocement be tomorrow or the next day or the next next day, till next week?

I have notice also is that Six Flags post stuff early in the morning.

[MadCard05]

See, i know my SFKK, i i haven't been there. I love the internet.

Inside the park the front side is known as Steel side, and the backside is known as Expansion side. The only time anyone gets more specific is Belgian Village or Northwest Territory. I think the ThrillVille became the name to promote a game last year, but the area isn't tagged that anywhere in the park to my knowledge.

Well most of the parks don't have a lot going on in September other than buy outs, and park attendance is generally the lowest it gets during this month. It makes sense to announce things in September because of this. You get excitement heading into Fright Fest, meaning more people in the park during September and Fright Fest.

[Austin]

They already confirmed the waterpark expansion to replace chang.

[MadCard05]

Yep, today on the WLKY article.

[nitrofan]

They already confirmed the waterpark expansion to replace chang.

It's not confirmed for 2010 though. It could happen in 2010 or 2011.

[cory]

Yea but according to a great source that i now got from six flags inc there talking about bringing a new ride for next year

[MadCard05]

I wouldn't be surprised to see something new come in next year, to hold over the suspense of the water park if it isn't ready for 2010.

[cory]

Yeah im sure there going to save that for 2011, but the way things been going with chang anything can happen because nobody expected chang to leave this year but it did. By next year hopefully Six Flags lets us know something

[MadCard05]

What are you talking about? I'm not even sure on this one.

[cory]

Anything can happen at sfkk. Im sure that the water park expansion is for 2011

[Austin]

Construction will be all year next year at least it should. So that auto rules out anything new for next year.

[DBru]

I wouldn't say *anything*...but yeah, I wouldn't look for a new, major attraction to debut in 2010.

[nitrofan]

Construction will be all year next year at least it should. So that auto rules out anything new for next year.

You can't just go around assuming things. You don't know what the park is planning. There are plenty of smaller things that the park could get. A lot of people are going to be mad about Chang leaving, so I think we will at least see something small.

[elvisboogens]

My guess is, rather than see something new next year, what you'll probably see is the end of T2 for more 2011 stuff.

[MadCard05]

My guess is, rather than see something new next year, what you'll probably see is the end of T2 for more 2011 stuff.

T2 isn't leaving.

[rcfreak339]

^I want to know who you are to confirm it isn't.

[nitrofan]

My guess is, rather than see something new next year, what you'll probably see is the end of T2 for more 2011 stuff.

Even though T2 is a piece of crap, they better not go taking even more coasters out of the park.

[elvisboogens]

T2 isn't leaving.

I don't care if you work at the park or not. I see no reason why T2 will be there another 5 years. Maybe it won't be gone before 2011, but they will get rid of it. WATCH.

[Austin]

It just isnt cody. Dont worry about it. They have plans for the park, I dont know everything, but at this point they arent removing it.

[nitrofan]

I started a T2 removal thread in the rumor section. Please keep all discussion of that rumor there. Here is the link:

http://sfkkonline.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3195#post3195

Now everyone is saying that the water park expansion will happen in 2011, but it could very well happen in 2010. Six Flags already said that their 50th Anniversary Celebration will begin in 2010 and go through 2011. It doesn't take over a year to build a water park either. Several parks in the chain started construction on a water park in October and it opened Memorial Day Weekend. An expansion would be a piece of cake.

That what I belive that it would open next year and Twister Twins will be torn down next year and I heard that a Tony Hawk ride will be coming will coming and I don't think a Tony Hawks Half Pipe would fit the theme of a
Asian/Japanese section of the water park.

It depends on how big it is.

[rcfreak339]

It has to be for 2010. If it was 2011 Six Flags most likely wouldn't have put the sign up already. 2 years is a long promotion.

[MadCard05]

I guess we'll have to wait and see. I just don't see how this "huge" expansion they called for in the WLKY thing is supposed to be done in 2010 if they haven't even started.

[Austin]

I think the CJ just put a story out that said 2011 for the 50th.

[MadCard05]

So it sounds like it will indeed be huge then.

[Austin]

Yea the article had a pic from 1997 lol. I was like wtf is up with the printer because i saw T2 was red(wasnt thinking about 1997) and then i noticed chang was all yellow.

[palmer]

We are in the 2009 and 2011 sandwich with what we want in the middle (2010). We know Bonzai Beach is in 2011 and 2009 is almost over.

This is the time when they need something to replace Chang (as in a new coaster in a different spot).

[elvisboogens]

I'll be happy if they just start dealing with Northwest.

[Austin]

I'll gladly wait a year for the waterpark and other new stuff to follow.

[palmer]

^Nah, how bout a coaster right now.

I'll give up Great American Scream Machine (GADV) to you guys, it has a walk-on every time and some people seem to like it.

[elvisboogens]

I'll take the Scream Machine.

[Austin]

Does it fit?

[elvisboogens]

Probably not (wanted to put it in my backyard).

[nitrofan]

Haha Palmer, you just want an excuse for a Dive Machine!

I thought you said you haven't even ridden GASM.

One good point there, that's because i don't intend to ride. Too many complaints and it looks like at the double corkscrews that it slows down and barely makes it over.

It's not as bad as people say it is. I actually really liked it. Just ride it once, and if you don't like it, at least you have an extra credit.

(Ok, sorry for getting off-topic)

[nitrofan]

Is there a good place in SFKK for a parade? Glow in the Park sounds like a very cool parade and is definately a possibility since 2010 is more of a transition year.

[MadCard05]

Can't do it, the park isn't wide enough.

[Austin]

Well they did attempt to run one on the front of the park once. I dont know if they still do it. They went from around enterprise, out around the walk way ring and went back in behind enterprise.

[Jp]

I don't think the park is getting nothing, since on the SFKK home page it says NEW FOR 2010 "The Play Pass" for only $29.99! Most of these park that are listed below are mostly not getting new!

Parks offering this!
Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom: $29.99
Six Flags Great Adventure: $69.99
Six Flags Fiesta Texas: $49.99
Six Flags Over Texas: $49.99

[Austin]

I dont think so either since we are getting the waterpark in 2011, which is a major undertaking in itself. At most i think mHF will reopen and Twisted Twins could reopen but thats like a 5% chance

[palmer]

^Well, there's some sunshine peeking through. LOL

[Austin]

Well Twins reopening is very very unlikely. They would need 2 new trains or 1 at least. Major track work, Structural work and other stuff to even put it in operation again. So far i havent seen or heard of any work on it or any train shipments from a Six Flags park or from coaster manufacturers.

MHF however has received some extensive work during this past season and i expect it would reopen this year.

I wouldn't look that far into it.

Shapiro prides himself with adding something new to every park every year, so I'm sure every park will get something, it will just be minor if it hasn't been announced yet.

[Austin]

Right now id say just expect painting and ride fixes and that stuff. Oh and mile high reopening.

[Jp]

They might be adding more Cyber Cafes and MPORIUM to parks that came to some in 2009!

Cyber Cafe (RESTAURANT) - "Can’t wait to update your Facebook or MySpace page until the end of your adventure? Then step into our state-of-the-art Cyber Café to surf the web, and grab a steaming hot cup of coffee or a freshly-made doughnut while you’re there."

MPORIUM (SHOP) - "This is the newest and coolest candy location! MPORIUM features the best of M&M’s® and MARS."

Click Here! (http://http://www.sixflags.com/greatAdventure/food/AllFoodandFun.aspx) for more stuff at Great Adventure!

Plus on Six Flags Facebook it said that these park so far are not getting a ride in 2010!

Six Flags Over Georgia
Six Flags St. Louis
And mabe OTHERS!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't even think SFKK won't get a water slide for the 2010 season, because whats comin' next year!

[Austin]

We already know we wont get a ride lol. Investing that much for 2011 would push us out of a new ride for 2010. We will technically gain a ride or 2 back if my hunch is correct.

The new stuff does sound cool though

[MadCard05]

Heard a rumor today that they're thinking about messing with some stuff inside of the water park. So we still might get a few changes. They'll start rehiring the employees here within the next 2 months, so if any changes are going to be made public it will occur soon.

Well Twins reopening is very very unlikely. They would need 2 new trains or 1 at least. Major track work, Structural work and other stuff to even put it in operation again. So far i havent seen or heard of any work on it or any train shipments from a Six Flags park or from coaster manufacturers.

MHF however has received some extensive work during this past season and i expect it would reopen this year.

Are you sure, I haven't heard ANYTHING about any work being done to Mile High. I do know it is still a possibility it re-opens. Still don't see it happening.

[Austin]

Yes. My friend went and noticed they had a worker on the top turn around before the drop and a boat stopped on the lift. He did get a picture but its in his photobucket accoutn so ill have to ask him.

Both places are so cool at GADV. SFKK should get one of each. They both have good stuff.

Oh maybe Mile High Falls is opening back up. See can you put that picture on here because i will like to see it.

[nitrofan]

It would be nice to have an Internet Cafe. The one at SFGAdv was very nice.

[Austin]

Well im having trouble finding it but i know ive seen it, it was on TPR just got to go through the 56 pages to find it tho.

Yeah a internet cafe lol. Then i could get on my dsi and post updates lol.

[cory]

Where do you go to get to it?

[nitrofan]

Yeah a internet cafe lol. Then i could get on my dsi and post updates lol.

That's a serious idea! SFGAdv, SFGAm, and SFMM (I think) have one.

Well im having trouble finding it but i know ive seen it, it was on TPR just got to go through the 56 pages to find it though.

I just went through the entire thread on TPR and didn't see the picture. Did Cody post it? There were a lot of pictures from him in one of the posts that had photobucket messages, so I couldn't view the pictures.

[Austin]

yeah cody posted it. just been lazy and played cod all day :P

[nitrofan]

yeah cody posted it. just been lazy and played cod all day :P

Well all of Cody's pictures in that thread had a Photobucket message saying that his account had been inactive for too long.

[Austin]

god dang it -.-. i never talk to him anymore because hes a ass so i guess there goes our picture.

[palmer]

The Mporium is fun too. It's cool (both weather and design) in there. They have a snot load of candy and all different cool M&M appreal.

[cory]

I hope MHF opens back up, but i dont think its going to because screamscape reported a while ago that the Northwest terriotory will not open up because budget problems and it aint nothing but a dump. I hope it does but also according to my sources but i am not sure if its true that six flags is selling that land in 2011. But im not sure if its right but there is alot of rumors saying that im suprised it has not been on screamscape yet. Screamscape has not report anything about SFKK for a while.

[Austin]

Who would they sell that land to? Its valuable land and will be very usefull when six flags recovers from most of their debt and can afford to spend money and bring us a new ride or two. Where would they build it if they sold it? Theyd just have to buy more land and MHF will reopen im sure of it, 100%. Like i said they did work on it to get it fixed and its prepared to run again this season if not 2011, only because banktruptcy might put it off so they can recover more money; Those shoot the chute's are pretty expensive to operate, just imagine all the water they have to pump in daily.

[cory]

Yeah thats why i really dont believe that rumor. I just wonder whats in store for the Northwest Terriotory. Hopefully Screamscape reports some about the Northwest territory soon.

You're 100% sure? At least 2 of those rides have been removed ffrom other Six Flags parks, and more are rumored to be on the way out.

[Austin]

Yeah. Why else would they have crews working on it periodicaly over last season, even at one point having a boat in the middle of the lift.

[Jp]

We just never know!!

[cory]

I been on cureton drive to see if anybody was working on it and nobody was.

[Austin]

Where is cureton drive?

Anyway they dont work on it all the time.It wasnt in that bad condition and was repaired during the summer months.

[cory]

Im not sure if thats what the street was called. I think we will find out whats going on with twisted twins in 2011.

[hardie1010]

201??? Do you mean 2010 or 2011?

[MadCard05]

Yes. My friend went and noticed they had a worker on the top turn around before the drop and a boat stopped on the lift. He did get a picture but its in his photobucket accoutn so ill have to ask him.

Hey techs do get bored every now and then. I do know that the trough is effed. It's going to have to be replaced.

Where is cureton drive?

Anyway they dont work on it all the time.It wasnt in that bad condition and was repaired during the summer months.

Are you 100% positive they had a boat on the ride too? Never saw this, heard of this, or ANYTHING about moving the boats since the ride has been shut down.

My sources have said that the boats are going to be replaced. They were winterized, I've seen them. I think I've actually got a picture of them, but apparently they'd rather replace them.

Even after the winterization they would probably need some work to just put them on the lift. Let me see if I can dig up the pictures.

[Austin]

Oh well. At least theres positive reports. Would the possible replacements be something like the kind at universal studios that they use on Jurassic park? Those were pretty sweet. What was wrong with the trough anyway.

Just a side note, i hope they clean up the rock signage. It was pretty nasty looking when i last saw it.

[MadCard05]

Here's some pictures. I think they're from '08. I know they're not from last year.

Boat #2 - I could find no pictures of the other boats
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f329/GoDeMadwolf/dump130.jpg

Twisted Sign - This has to be '08, because Fright Fest didn't go back to Twisted in '08, so these webs are from '07

Man i havent seen the boats in years. Great pics though.

[palmer]

This makes me mis Movie Town Water Effect! ;(

[MadCard05]

I'll throw out some more speculation. Is has been rumored for the past 2 years now that Thrill Park Theater would get a make over and upgrades. Basically they would upgrade it for the use of 3D glasses, and put in the ability to use things like water and what not to further enhance the guest experience.

Obviously, this has not happened. Now, a month or so ago Six Flags struck a deal with a company that specializes in just this sort of thing. With MANY of the current theaters across the chain closed for "future development," it's makes sense that this is about to happen on a large scale across all the parks.

There is also a rumor that all the parks will eventually have the same movie. There are things that point to this at Kentucky Kingdom. Obviously there was a new movie installed last summer to replace the aging Hannah Barbara movie. However, this new movie (which I'm told is actually from the 90s) is said to have only been bought out for 1 or 2 years. That combined with the fact that Elvira wasn't played last year for Fright Fest, and it becomes quite apparent that this may be a very real possibility. Well, that and it also is possible the Theater will be closed this year. ~_~

I've also heard some rumor that Kentucky Kingdom may get parking on there season passes too. This is just speculation on my part due to the fact that the CEO visited over the weekend with the Fair Board. It was rumored he tried to do this when he met with the Fair Board during the summer as well, when he was no doubt there to discuss the Chang removal and 2011 Water Park installation.

[Austin]

Sounds plausible. I really hated that movie though, i wish they brought back the robocop movie. Sucks it would have to be closed for a year though. It would make people even angrier and make more claims about the park closing to be only a waterpark.

So the parking thing would mean we show the booth our pass and we dont have to pay to park?

[rcfreak339]

I'm still hearing reports of Mile High Falls opening next year....

[nitrofan]

^^If the parking pass is done the same way as the other parks, you will have to pay extra on top of your pass for parking. You pay $45 extra when you have your pass processed at the park and they print parking on your pass.

Sounds plausible. I really hated that movie though, i wish they brought back the robocop movie. Sucks it would have to be closed for a year though. It would make people even angrier and make more claims about the park closing to be only a waterpark.

It wouldn't nescecarily have to be closed for a year.

[Austin]

Well its a massive ride and f its going to be done right it will need to be out for a majority if not all of the season. I mean you got the screen to replace, ride vehicles worked on and modified if they need to be.all and replace a entirely old and outdated video and audio system, install the new special effects and renovate more then likely the pre-show space, the queue area and the exit area which includes a shop.

I mean you got the screen to replace, ride vehicles worked on and modified if they need to be.all and replace a entirely old and outdated video and audio system, install the new special effects and renovate more then likely the pre-show space, the queue area and the exit area which includes a shop.

That doesn't take a whole season though.
