as for expamding HH if they do that I would like to see one of those half pipe slides. It is possible because another HH has one. To be exact it is the HH in texas and it is called mega wedgie :D

I was actually just thinking about that. Pretty much every water park is building one nowadays, they're big draws, and can actually bring people in rather than a normal waterslide.

I mean, if Magic Waters in Rockford can build one, HH can't?

six flags probably wouldn't buy a master blaster. at SFKK they built a proslide rocket that uses LIMs instead of the powerful blast of water

If they thought the reception to Dark Knight was underwhelming...Why Why Why. Why not a new water ride? Why not a new flat? Splash Battles have low capacity Six Flags! Maybe I'll go once or twice in 09' but that's it. Forget it. I don't want to come ashore with you Six Flags. Neither will people looking for something new and exciting next year.

Wow, that was not there Tuesday.

Splash Battle looks...interesting... A Roller Soaker type ride would work there, or maybe a standard water coaster?

Gotta throw ideas out there, we're not sure it's gonna be a Splash Battle, at least I hope not.

Wasn't the new attraction sign by space shuttle america?

Yes, there's one there as well. This just popped up today, apparently.

Two, possibly three new rides for '09, none of them really indicate a coaster of any sort.

EDIT: Nevermind...gah...

EDIT: You just edited yours, now mine looks out of place. Oh well, I'm keeping it. It's how I roll.


About that, I messed up the writing, and got rid of all of it by mistake. I put it all back.

Ha, fantastic.

If it is a Splash Battle, I'll be pretty disappointed. There should be some form of water ride there now since SWF is gone, but not a lame, awful one like that. It fits into the family theme Six Flags is so desperately clinging to, though. A roller soaker or a water coaster can be both family and appeal to the thrill crowd.

Still undecided at what's gonna take SSA's spot, but I'm hoping for a flat.

"Come ashore with us in 2009"

/me thinks of kids shows that have a sailing, navy or sea theme to them

At least it can't be something Spongebob since Nikelodeon owns those rights.

Six Flags Great Adventure for a few years showed a Spongebob 4D movie thing, a Spongebob attraction is possible, but may not be likely.
