Minor Updates, Rumors, and Happenings

I'm thinking we may see a Mack PowerSplash.....

You would have to remove V2 and Yankee Clipper in order to make that fit.

IF that we're to happen, I actually would be happy. Is also be sad cause I really love V2. I love the name, the logo, the placement, the ride itself etc. but another launch shuttle coaster with an added effect would fill the void greatly. With a power splash, we still get the intimidating vertical tower rising over the park & really use all that water over there without getting rid of it/filling it in blah blah.

they could properly keep Clipper if they move around its concrete flumes

Eh... I hope these rumors are nothing but that, especially if it's a Mack water coaster that would be taking V2's place. If there is any truth to the removal rumor, the earlier comment about Six Flags already having inked a deal with a manufacturer for something that could fit the spot made me think Premier, which (to me at least) would be a more preferable outcome.

Joker would have been a fit for that spot, so on the bright side, at least another coaster wasn't removed in order to make room for that.

Well considering that Clipper's station is where the splashdown for the Mack is, I doubt it'd survive.

Alright - I got a little carried away with the "Pulsar" addition BUT I still believe it would be a fun addition here. However when I first saw SF Dubai concept art with one in there, I really envisioned that ride being added in or near HH. Ive talked about a water coaster that guests could enjoy in both parks before. It could technically be in either park but guests could enter the line or merge in from either one. Think Pilgrims Plunge. I feel like the perfect spot would be along the water park in the parking lot so yes wed lose spaces. If someone could photoshop that, Id love to see it

anyways, Yes if precious V2 were to be removed you better make sure one hell of an addition is replacing it. Especially if you are plannin on removing a total of 2-3 attractions.

Glow Run tickets went on sale today!
$25 is not bad for a color run at all. Very excited!

I honestly do not understand the obsession with water attractions as of late. SFGAm would he better off expanding Hurricane Harbor.

What if you were to flip it 180. Have the station near Yankee Clipper and the launch like V2

^Not quite sure I understand what you are saying. If I flipped the ride 180 degrees, the station butts up against Angelo's patio. It does fit, but blocks the patio view. Did anyone else catch the part of NoCoasterCon where they mentioned Angelo's patio being expanded this off season? I assume it is going to expand to the pathway in front of The Joker, but they didn't go into detail.

[Goku1910]

I would assume the patio will connect to the pathway leading to the current Picnic Grove entrance. Similar to how the path next to logger's queue runs all the way to V2's alternate entrance by Go Karts.

My guess is that it will look something like this

What are the odds that the new Cold Stone location is the SF Outfitters building in Mardi Gras?

[RollingCoasting]

^ I think it's possible since it's still on the map, but the building would for sure need to be expanded. I'd place my bets somewhere else

On another note, I know there was no mention of this at NCC or anything, but could the antique photos place possibly become a gift shop for Joker? I mean, how profitable really is the place?

That no sence make it.

Yay Goliath! Thanks for everybody!

That is an odd looking construction update.

[RollingCoasting]

I'm seriously considering going up to South Road Park to take construction pics lol. Actually, I heard someone did it for TDK so it shouldn't be a problem.

[gottastrata33]

Do it!

I would love to see an update on our new coaster

Great Wolf Lodge plans to buy KeyLime Cove and expand the water park.

What was Phase 2?


Also, I believe Great Wolf Lodge sells day passes.

[RobSFGAm]

Phase 2 was more outdoor slides, Sun deck area, enclosing the U shape and putting a roof over that. Under the roof was supposed to be an adult swim up bar, tropical area/garden. Will have to see if I still have the pictures to see what else they had planned.
