What ever happend to Power Dive.
Where have you been? They took it down sometime last year! I never got to ride it... I wonder if they'll be putting it back up though I doubt it.
it is dismantled in the employee parking lot. At the old coasterworld there was pictures of it in the parking lot. Talk to one of the web masters of sfgamworld to see if they have those pics.

Yeah, it's been down for a while now... You can see it in the staff parking lot... It was a very awesome ride!
Yea that ride was awesome! I hope it is reistaled. That had to be the most pointless ride removal ever at SFGAm
 Nothing to see here....
I remember the year before they took it down, out of all 8 times I went through out the season, it wasn't opened once. I went from opening weekend to fright fest. I heard there wasn't enough staff, but I don't believe they would dismantle a ride just because of staff. If the parts are still in the parking lot, I doubt they will put it back up, because wouldn't they store it in the storage shed by the Eagle?
Not to sound mean or anything, but don't be calling me about it. Dave is the only webmaster. I am just a forum administrator. I have no part in any other area of the site, so if you need help there, talk to Dave (CoasterDude316.) I'm strictly a forum guy, I hardly even look at the rest of the site, to be honest.Thanks guys! 
i remember how powerdive always locked you in sooooo tight... you could barely breath!!!
I remember that T bar that would come down!!! that would take away some of the comfort!! I rember when my friend bought some candy and then we went on PD the first time we went upside down the plastic thing that it was in cracked and you can admagine what happend after that!!

I remember watching the news once and they had this tour of SFGAm or something. All I remember watching was people riding the Power Dive. It looked cool. That was like 2 or 3 years ago..
Ahh, Power Dive isn't Power Dive if it's comfortable! I rode two looping starships, Power Dive, and Phoenix. By far, Phoenix at Busch Gardens Tampa was the better ride. It was just more comfortable. Plus, it was nice not worrying about someone barfing. There were 4 people total on my ride on Phoenix.
lol... yeah, that was good times... it was always my absolute favorite to ride it at night and see all the lights and everything! I love GAm at night! it's just so sweet! i wish they would have like one special time where they stay open like all night long! that would be fun!
Last summer at a carnival I rode this new ride called "USA" or something and it was one of those rides like Power Dive was. Those kind of rides actually make me sick. Usually its only after I've eaten something...
ohhh, i love those kinda rides..... carnival rides are sooo creepy!
I know I love them! My favorite is the Zipper... that is one awesome and intense ride!
omg... that ride scares the $*** out of me. my cousin amy loves that ride and i always get scared (she's 12 i think)! it's still awesome though... especially at night!!!
lol I'm usually always scared each time I ride the Zipper. I remember like 2 years ago I think... my friend Jacob said he wanted to ride the Zipper and I was like what are you crazy?! He was serious too. I was kind of up for it, but we were both scared to death. So on the 4th of July when we went... I think it was the 5th ride we went on, and we were so scared and after the ride we wouldn't stop going on it... lol it was so cool. So I love that ride. Last year when I went this guy operating the ride kept seeing me go on it the two days I went, and he thought I was just crazy about the ride... lol, fun times.
omg... the guys operating the zipper at our county fair were soooooo scary!!! when they would close the door to the little cage, they would start spinning the cage!!! like they would just grab onto it and spin you around and around!!! it was freaky! then sometimes they would like stop you at the top and they wouldn't let you down!!! it was creepy...
Can someone please explain exactly what Powerdive was?
lol they do that here too! I've seen it, and I think they've done it to me once or twice. It was cool lol.
Powerdive looked like a swinging ship ride, that was "shaped" as a space shuttle. It would operate just like a swinging ship, except it made you go upside-down. It was cool, because you'd accelerate forward really slow, then you'd go backwards a little faster, then forwards a little faster, and so on... Eventually you'd almost go all the way around and then you'd like stall up there hanging for a second. Then the next time, you'd go all the way around... It was fun!
It sounds like it was a great ride. Does anyone know who made it? Also, why was it removed from the park?

i couldn't find who made it... and i really don't know why they removed it...
Well that's okay. Thanks, I just tend to ask a lot of questions because I'm a very curious kid!
