Well its a tough choice of which ride I would bring back. I guess TidalWave because we went to Kentucky Kingdom, and it was great. So ya.

I would love to have the Delta Flyer/Eagle's Flight skyride back again, I love those types of rides. I'd also like to have Shockwave, Rolling Thunder, and Tidal Wave back.
Finally Coaster Season!!

I'd bring back Z-Force because it's the only ride removed ride that I never got on. I was like 1 1/2" too short when it was there. I've been told by my sister and others who rode it that it really kind of sucks, but it just would've been nice to get to judge for myself.
If I had to choose another, it'd be Shockwave. Sure, the ride got pretty darn rough over the years, but the big blue beast still had a lot of great thrills to offer.
I'm gonna twist ya, and I'm gonna flip ya. Every time you squeal, I'm just gonna go faster and harder.

I would much rather have Shockwave and Z-Force than S:UF and Iron Wolf.

Edge was located in King Chaos's Spot, which ironically also held Power Dive. Please don't double post, and I do not know of any pics of Power Dive.

In MY opinion...Nah, I won't say it.
Still though, IW is in my second favorite stand-up. I don't know why people are always dissing it, especially people who've probably never ridden it

This ride and picture in link is the same ride as Power Dive, but is at a different place. SFOG is probably getting rid of theirs (Looping Starship) for the new ride that is coming. Also, SFOG has an Edge type ride called Freefall.
