Guessing you didn't read any posts in the Orbit topic lol.

The rumor on Screamscape is a S&S 4D FreeFly in the soon to vacated spacefrom Jesters, ERC and RC. I think he was trying to say Free Spin though and not FreeFly. Im not not saying I'm believing him, I just wanted to point out what the rumor on Screamscape is.

I was responding to request to check if it was open.

The last time I rode TDK, I thought it was a little painful. But that was last year, so it could be different this year.

If anything, it's worse. I hit my head on the side, and it poked a hole in my lip.

I feel like you think almost every coaster besides Demon is rough in someway. (Opposite of me lol)

Viper and American Eagle are rough. TDK abuses me. Pretzelman's a one trick pony. Raging Trimbrake is... well, the name speaks for itself (though I think the ride is the smoothest in the park).

I feel the same way about Demon and Whizzer as most people do about Whizzer.

I'd bet a very large amount of money that the "rumor" on Screamscape was just based on people sending in what people were speculating on here. Doesn't mean it's true or its not true, but I wouldn't assign it any special meaning just because it's listed there.

S&S Free Spin huh? I honestly would be ok with that. I just really hope it has some sort of unique theming.

Are me and Max the only ones against a freespin? And also, I think it'd be a better fit where BB is. They wouldn't have to reroute any paths. :p

[CoastsToCoasters]

I am going to agree with you that I wish it never left too. I loved that kick ass little coaster. Out of all the spinners I've been on, Ragin' Cajun was my favorite. It had a lot of spunk on the lower level& was a flat out fun coaster that made everyone laugh. Ugh :/

I think a 4D would be a great addition. The GP will eat it up. I used to think we would one day get an X2 type coaster but this will do. We know they are space savers & ive heard no bad things other than hoping toi see anew layout. Which I agree with. I'd love to see a different layout even if that means adding one more "layer" to it. I truly thought if SFGAdv & us ever got one, we'd have a larger model than SFFT butttttt that didn't happen in jersey obviously.

[RollingCoasting]

Here's another reason (Kind of a personal one) why I don't want a free-spin.

I want SFGAm to get something that enthusiasts actually rank highly for once.
I'm tired of hearing "SFGAm has the worst RMC. One airtime hill?" and "Raging Bull is my least favorite B&M Hyper."

Odds seem slim for getting any sort of ride that "enthusiasts" rate highly next year. So how about we just get a that's fun that the 99% of normal guests who aren't "enthusiasts" will enjoy?

[Guy_With_A_Stick]

I'm not against a Freespin at all. There are better fits, yes, but I think that if we got a Freespin, it would make for a nice new coaster.

I just hope it has an SRQ lol.

I'm against it. As far as 2017 is concerned.

I'm not really for it either. It's a gimmick ride.

[RollingCoasting]

Let's not rule out this rumored stand-up coaster from the wikia page (Pic is from 2014 from the GP Thread :p)

[Guy_With_A_Stick]

I'm gutted we didn't get the dueling Invert this year! </3

[CoastsToCoasters]

I love that every day someone says "we can expect a teaser today" & yet still, nothing Haha. I really don't think we will see one even today. I will say though if they don't post one by Wednesday, I think it's safe to bet we won't be receiving anything "Go Big" worthy.

[SFGAMNUT9302]

This all might be a classic case of telephone.... Orbit might be closing for the season for some rehab/upgrades, and the ride operator said "It's closing forever" and before you know it.... East River Crawler is being replaced with a 4D, Orbit is on it's way to Six Flags America, Bridges are being torn down, and Bugs Bunny is going to do High Dives off of the Columbian Carousel into the reflection pond, lol.

[maxwellt]

People need to know the difference between what they want to see, and a rumor...

I don't expect a lot this year except for a flat ride package. Maybe a Zamperla Endeavor, a Superloop, who knows.

[jmanporty7]

I honestly don't know what to think anymore. This is all very confusing.

Idk what to expect. I'm just going to wait for the first teaser

If any of you caught the WGN morning news segment with Marcus Leshock this morning. Marcus confirmed the park is closing Orbit for good.
