Well it seems to me that there tryin to make the park a more family friendly place, and I don't think that idea is going to change. I think we might get a couple small rides like a mini coaster in the next 2 years, but we might get somthing big to make every one else happy other than familys. Say like extremests like all of us here. 8)
Were getting a Water Park! WERE GETTING A WATER PARK!!!!!

I see that getting a B&M floorless would be cool.... but you guys left out their sit downs (not the speed coasters) but the original sit-downs like kumba, wildfire, exc..... ... maybe we could get something other than a floorless .... something like a S&S launched coaster ... or maybe ..... a vekoma biker coaster..or a........ B&M dive machine..........(Intamins rocket coasters are too expensive...Hint hint :lol: ).....or maybe we could get another custom woodie....or a..... premier rides LIM launched coaster.......

I always thought that a Vekoma Boaster Bike would fit incrediblly well in our park, I believe it would have to be a bit higher and faster than what they have already put out though.

A cross between TTD and Milennium Force plus Kingda Ka theming.

A thought just occurred to me: Ice Mountain covers a huge footprint. If SFGAm had thought about it they could have moved it to the waterpark. That, in turn, would free up plenty of space for their next new coaster - floorless, 4D or otherwise.

I think they should put another Giant Drop but this time instead of 200 feet in the air, they should do a 400 feet!

Yep!! Mr.mrharoldg is right. We are getting water park in 2005! So we don't need Ice Mountain, and it takes for ever to wait in line!! So they could tore it down, and replace it with GIANTIC Floorless!! It would be amaizing to ride floorless above the water!! GREAT! OR Use the space between Viper and Go Karts?

Isn't that the area for the path between the waterpark and regular park?

While I'd really like a giant floorless coaster, I agree with planea's posts about the theming.
I agree how some of the past installations have taken away from the atmosphere. Not so much SUF, but Deja Vu and V2 were just plopped down and thats about it. While SUF could have used more que, and ride theming, they did a great job blending it with Orleans Place.
I too would like to see more care put into theming, and theming upkeep.
Finally Coaster Season!!

A B&M prototype would be great, but it's more likely that we would get
a floorless. Screamscape.com put a new rumor today, about us getting
a Floorless in 2006, but I won't believe it until I see something come from
Six Flags themselves. I thought it was too early for 2006 rumors. I'm sick
of rumors.

But, as I was saying, a Floorless is more logical for us to get next. I would
hate to have another Vekoma. It would be pretty cool if we got a
Intamin Rocket Coaster. I'd love to have the worlds largest and fastest
coaster, right here at our park.

As far as the theme, yeah, whatever new coaster comes in, they really
need to theme it better. But, we'll see.

What about FLOORLESS with the name- Riggler's Revange? Greencoaster with purple supports! THEMEING: some of the QUEN LINE: in the old barack with some green liquid on the corner. On the walls queastions marks. On silling big 3 black and gray fans.Some walls with posters of fight. ENTRANCE TO QUENE LINE: Big gate in shape of "?" with addition of metal spirals and crapy things. OPEN QUENE LINE:trees and bushes, and fountain with green color and some rocks on the side with boxex and some dynamits. PLATFORM: Old barack bigger then in quene line. Inside there would be caves, spider's webs, "?" statue, and half of pipe with running green water to the old sink. Crapy lamps and wired like in batman. AHA all walls in black or gray or green. HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT? :wink: THANKS

I don't like it very much at all, but that's me.

James, we can never have the world's tallest coaster as SFGA can only go as high as the Sky Trek Tower and CP has already topped that.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.

In a phone call with Hue Eichelberger(executive vice president) he said the park will be getting two new coasters within the next four years. The first will be installed in 200 and will be a multilooper. The type wasnt specified or what company wilol make it. The second coaster wasnt discussed any further.

Umm no offense, but signs sound alot like SUF no? I'm thinking something themed to the "Joker" with a funhouse as the queue. That would be some cool theming right there. Like an ACTUAL funhouse!

Very suspicious...

No ride takedowns. Everything that was discussed is what I told you.

Is Hue the executive vice president of Six Flags Inc.? Are you a friend of his?

Also, the next coaster will come without taking out another coaster. Someone has already said that on this site and it sounds as if they will get created with whatever it will be. :D

(And no, I'm not 100% positive what it will be.)

He is the executive vice president of Six Flags Inc. Im not friends with him. Two close friends of him who are an older couple call corporate once a month or every two months. They talk to Hue every time they call and he answers any questions they have. Hell also tell them information like with the two coasters in the next 4 years. He doesnt go into all that much detail when he tells them things like that but its for an obvious reason.

Now that I mention moving Ice Mountain to the waterpark, I'll go one step further: leave the water there and theme the new coaster over it (a la SWF's Kraken)!
