Believe me, I do NOT want a Dive Coaster at all. Bland, repetitive rides, quite short(for actual 'coasting'), and just meh overall. Also, the only reason SFFT is supposedly getting a Dive Coaster was because Coaster Studios just threw it out there with no background whatsoever. As for SDC, it was on one survey last year. However, more recent surveys suggest a Mack Spinner.
Dive Coasters are a dead species. I'd much rather see a Launch and Airtime machine rather than a Dive Machine.

I'm just so sick of eh rides getting all the hype just because of Cedar Point getting one.
I have heard or seen wish list ideas or rumors involving these parks... Six Flags Great America Carowinds Six Flags Fiesta Texas Silver Dollar City Six Flags Magic Mountain Kings Dominion
I wouldn't mind having a dive coaster at all, but I'd rather have what you mentioned. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
After Sheikra, Griffin, and Valvran, I'd rather we get A Riddler Revenge (Zamperla Giant Discovery), A Euro Fighter, and I haven't ridden it but I imagine a Tempesto/SUF like coaster would be better. 926 Coasters around the World! Countdown to 1000!

I actually have been wanting a dive coaster since I've seen Sheikra. And then Valravn with the 2nd 90 degree dive reinforced my desire. BUt a Mack power splash looks awesome as well especially if it would be replacing Yankee Clipper. Single Day Ride Count Record

^According to the posted image, it would only replace V2, keeping YC and LR, just rerouting the queue.

I could definitely see a mack power splash replacing V2 its the perfect size plus the flumes could remain operating and it would revamp yankee harbor sounds like a win win win to me
I'd love to see another 200+ ft ride of any sort.
I'm really hoping for Chance Hyper GT-X- Coaster. That would be the airtime machine we need.
The ride experience/sensations on a Wing Coaster and Dive Machine are very similar- another reason I'd really rather they not go that route if and when Six Flags moves on from their "Strictly RMC, Toy Coasters, or Relocations" phase. Keep Eurofighters in Europe
See I really don't get how a dive and wing coaster are similar. To me they are nothing alike. However I don't think we're going to see a dive coaster here. Now SFMM I could see getting a recording breaking dive coaster or SGADv.
The wide floorless trains and larger, drawn out (and similar) elements. You get a different first drop- holding brake w/ vertical drop or the rollover drop (in most cases). Keep Eurofighters in Europe
That Lightning Run looks awesome! It would go perfectly in Demon's spot. The only good things about Demon are the low height requirement and that it's an entry level looper. If that ride was gone, there would be no looper for kids until 54 inch. Single Day Ride Count Record

^ There would also be no need to sell Tylenol in the park if Demon was gone. (Why is it Viper's shop
 )On the subject of Dive Coasters, I honestly don't want to see a B&M at our park. I've never been on a B&M Dive Coaster myself, but I only hear negative things about them, and they tend to be very short. HOWEVER, I would want to see a Mack Dive Coaster. Lost Gravity looks sick. Maybe we could even get a launched lift-hill, and more elements than Lost Gravity. If V2 actually is replaced by a Pulsar clone, then why not replace a water-ride with a coaster since we just did the opposite? I think it'd be pretty neat. Even a clone of Lost Gravity would be a great addition. PLUS, the train's hold just as many people as on Free-Spin, so there's that :p
Just to be clear when you say I don't want to see a B&M in our park your only talking about a dive coaster correct. Not B&M as a hole.
I really would like to see a Mack coaster also. Even a spinner.
^ I meant B&M Dive Coasters only
Yeah I thought so.
Dive coasters are okay but they aren't really that special. After the first drop they're pretty much like any other looping coaster. I personally thought Valravn was too smooth, I almost felt like I was riding in a car on the interstate.
I think we can all agree that the park needs some sort of launched coaster. Maybe one of the new Vekoma coasters?
You misspelled Mack. Plus I don't see Six Flags going back to Vekoma. I heard a rumor that after Deja Vu, They stopped buying Vekoma rides. So unless Vekoma gives Six Flags a 60+% Discount, I don't see it happening. 926 Coasters around the World! Countdown to 1000!

Yeah I really don't want to see a Vekoma, not even a standard Boomerang. I still think our next launch coaster will be a Premier Rider. But I would love it if it was a Blue Fire clone with the spinning cars that were testedfor a short time.
I guess Vekoma is a long shot. But their new coasters look great and I hope a park closer to us gets one of them soon. Would a Mack or Premier be more likely? I'd love a launched Mack coaster but Six Flags hasn't built one yet. But SFGAm seems to be the test park so maybe we could get one.
THANK YOU! I've only been on Sheikra but I wasn't very impressed. I would much rather have a Premier Launch or B&M Floorless Favorite Coasters I've Ridden:
Steel: 1. Maverick 2. Steel Vengeance 3. X2 4. Storm Chaser 5. Twisted Colossus Wood: 1. The Voyage 2. Renegade 3. Mystic Timbers 4. The Legend 5. The Beast Great America: 1. Maxx Force 2. Goliath 3. Raging Bull 4. Batman: The Ride 5. X-Flight Coaster Count: 118 Go Hawks!
Trust me, floorless coasters are as great as they're made out to be. It just gives the same experience as a sit down. I went on Rougarou (sp?), and it wasn't a much different of experience as a sit down like RB (minus the inversions).

I thought the same thing about floorless coasters. But I also thought the train was more comfortable than othe sit down coasters.
Technically a dive coaster is a floorless coaster.... My point being I would rather have a more intense ride than a slow drawn out cookie cutter one. Favorite Coasters I've Ridden:
Steel: 1. Maverick 2. Steel Vengeance 3. X2 4. Storm Chaser 5. Twisted Colossus Wood: 1. The Voyage 2. Renegade 3. Mystic Timbers 4. The Legend 5. The Beast Great America: 1. Maxx Force 2. Goliath 3. Raging Bull 4. Batman: The Ride 5. X-Flight Coaster Count: 118 Go Hawks!
