About All the steel coasters..... They seem more tame when its cold out on B96 night i rode shockwave tons of times and it didnt even bother me but months later Coasterdude had to teach (if thats what you call it :lol:

) how to not kill my head on it!!! Ok now back on topic................I think SF has done a great job on the rides... I think they are getting a little dated though. Im not saying remove them we need to keep the park the way it is but we need to add some New ones like maybe a Fribie, That would make me feel better about PowerDive!!!

Iron Wolf is only a little rough on the exit of the corkscrew, and Eagle is one of the smoothest wooden coasters out there. If you want to ride a rough Wooden coaster go ride Mean Streak at Cedar Point or Raging Wolf Bobs at Six Flags Worlds of Adventure, those coasters will teach you the meaning of a rough wooden coaster.Also Timmy a note for next time you post, can you please use proper grammer and spelling at all times so its a little easier to understand what your saying. Thanks

Rides are more tame on cold nights because there is more friction, which leads to slower speeds, and less bumpiness and roughness.But anyway, to answer the topic question... I like Raging Bull because it's so smooth. (But anyone could tell you that

)

less friction leads to higher speeds

I think the rides are great. Like you already said, AE is very smooth, great wooden coaster. Viper is very underrated and the airtime is excellent. The steel coasters... IW is just a tiny bit rough. You just have to suck it up and hold on for the ride. I appreciate B&M's first coaster. It left a lasting impression, and headache, of the park. lol But anyhow, I loved Demon because it's a classic Arrow looper. Those are keepers. The park has great rides! What more can one say?

whatsup with the christmas tree on top of eagle

by **coasterzak** on January 29th, 2003, 10:07 pm

I know that they put Christmas trees and flags on top of different structures when they are complete and finished being built. Could this be the case that they are done with AE already?

by **coastrcorey** on January 30th, 2003, 11:01 pm

What?? I've never heard that before... That's quite interesting! What would be the significance of a Christmas tree???

by **Chitown** on January 30th, 2003, 11:45 pm

The tree on the helix of Eagle has been there during the winter season for quite some time. Nothing new her, carry on.

Im going on a wild limb here, but I think it might be to celebrate Christmas which happens to fall right in the middle of the offseason

No it isn't for x-mas. The trees are always put up on new builds where nobody died. Don't ask why, but its what they do. Anyways, it sounds like they are confused by this tree because of the fact it just appeared there recently, not around x-mas time. :roll:

by **Chitown** on January 31st, 2003, 2:35 pm

Sliced bread. Thats the same tree that they put up last year, the year before, the year before that , etc, etc.Its nothing new.

by **SfgamFreak03** on January 31st, 2003, 4:15 pm

Its just like the Big Spider it is always there during the holidy season do you think they can get a bigger Tree?

by **coasterzak** on January 31st, 2003, 4:33 pm

I don't get it, what is the significance of the tree?

by **Chitown** on January 31st, 2003, 5:05 pm

Its facing the tollway. Anyone that drives down it will see it. Just decoration I am guessing.

by **CoasterDave316** on January 31st, 2003, 5:19 pm

Merry ChristmasHere is a picture of the tree....http://sfgamworld.com/Photos/Random/EagleTree.JPG :lol:

by **coastrcorey** on January 31st, 2003, 7:12 pm

That's just kind of weird to me... Since it's so small...

by **coasterzak** on January 31st, 2003, 10:39 pm

I think it's cool how they do something unique like that... I don't know of any parks around here that do that.

by **SfgamFreak03** on January 31st, 2003, 10:53 pm

You think they would get a big tree and put it up. Maybe they could make a tree out of plywood and drill holes and put christmas lights in it and hang it on the side like the spider. They would have to make it big though!!!

by **Timmy179** on January 31st, 2003, 11:31 pm

i didnt mean to cause such a rukus over the christmas tree

by **coastrcorey** on February 1st, 2003, 10:15 am

Lol... It's ok. I've learned something new because of it!

by **coasterzak** on February 1st, 2003, 10:50 am

Me too! Good to know some people do things for no apparent reason and keep that tradition going!
