He'll just find it. :( Maybe we could just discuss it in the chatroom until Thursday (There's an ignore feature)

As much as I don't want a freespin I think it would add to the park's line up. But so would a launched so I'm hoping the park will wait to build a coaster.

The park needs new flat ride more than a coaster so I hope we get a flat pack. I'm not sure why super loops get so much hate, a super loop would be a good transition ride for the park. However I think the park needs more than just a super loop.

My biggest complaint about the park is the empty spots like Ragin Cajun and Skytrail. Hopefully those ugly spots will get filled soon.

A DiskO in RG spot, Superloop in Sky Trail's, and lastly an endeavor in ERC spot would tickle my fancy. 2018, a big coaster could come to V2/The Flumes spot. Like everyone is wanting, maybe a Sky Rocket or maybe a new coaster will be hot and popular.

I'm honestly thinking we're going to get an interactive "Pearl Clutching" experience

Forgive my ignorance here, I don't come visiting very often, but isn't a super loop just "Power Dive" but in a different form.

I guess in concept yes. All you do is flip around. Except the fact that it's a train following a "track" and a loop instead of an arm and free cabin but you're kinda right

Okay so I feel like I might be the only one bummed with a super loop. I've ridden the SFGADv one and it's fun and all, but it's a carnival ride.
I don't pay for a season pass to ride a carnival ride, I pay for world class thrill attractions. I can pay $2.00 or whatever the heck the price is at some local carnival. And many a local carnival have a super loop. It's a fun ride and I enjoy it, but it belongs in more of a county fair (not to SF one) than in Six flags, and that causes me to kinda not enjoy it

Same. If we got one it'd be in a flat package

Woah. That's nothing that I'd think they'd be getting.

Seems like the general guess many people had for St. Louis was a Free Spin. So this either makes one more likely for us, or it maybe it means that Six Flags isn't as into them as people think and they're only adding the one in New England...

Maybe I just can't see it but does that poster say anything about Six Flags St. Louis on it? I was looking for something that mentions the park on the sign but I'm not seeing anything.

Screamscape is reporting it as St. Louis. Presumably the person who took the picture knew what park they were at.

I'd love a Disk-O. The one I rode at Kennywood was really fun

Maybe we will get a disko too. Six Flags could be switching from super loops to diskos.

Would we really need to move so many rides or clear space just to put a Disko ride in? I always thought they took up a pretty small amount of land. They could have probably fit a Disko in Ragin' Cajun's old spot without the need to move other rides around.
