HW&SS 2012: The Hints & Puns Begin

There are a great many people in the industry who have no desire to do business with them again, for a number of reasons, some of which have little to do with the rides themselves.

Ah, gotcha. Well Six Flags certainly seems done with them, which is a shame, because they really do build great rides.

The more I think about it, the spinner mouse does seem like a real possibility.

Well Paula was quoted in that article, I believe, saying that we're familiar with the new attraction but it has a unique twist. A first of its kind.

Can't find the article now. Paula...help with that?

Giga spinning mouse made by Gravity Group!

Spinning wooden splinter? Lost coaster on steroids. :)

I always though splinter would be their next coaster.... Until I saw wooden warrior. You have to think that will be their next wooden coaster anyway.

But not for 9 million LOL

Not for 9 million... Correct.

Although from what I have heard about Wooden Warrior, and Twister. It would be worth 9 million before whatever it is they are getting for 9 mill.

I'm betting on spinning coaster, and new slides with a drop out floor. Did no research on whether the $$ match up.

I think the bill for Flying Turns is getting to be close to $9M :)

I figure whenever they decide to add another section to the park we will have months to guess what "holiday" will be represented next. I think last time I was convinced it was "Valentine's Day" but I was way off. ;)

I always thought a spinning mouse coaster would fit the park perfectly but I am probably way off on that, too. Whatever it is I am sure it will be awesome. :)

There are few families I would trust with running a park more than the Koch family. In fact, there are none.

I don't know what they're adding, but I'm sure it will be a perfect fit. Besides, they've already got enough to keep myself coming back!

Yea I think it's safe to say they won't mess it up

How much does a Giant Ferris Wheel cost?

*Sighs* I sure do miss Anton :)

I'm sure it's not a coincidence, knowing your love for the man..that you posted this on the 10th anniversary of his passing...July 30, 2001.

Or maybe it was just karma?

^What do you mean, Mike?

I post my love for Anton every 2 to 3 days :)

...so it's more like the broken clock that's right twice a day.

At some point that crossed my mind as well.

I have often wondered why more water coasters have never been built... (ala Roller Soaker at Hershey)

Because they suck?

I am now convinced that the park is adding a giant "coaster" wheel...like Deno's Wonder Wheel.

^Hoping, *if* that turns out to be true, they go for more Deno's and less DCA. :)

Oh, and I'm thinking you're close...but my guess is a Giant Wheel with spinning cars (like on Teacups rides)...although I'd kinda prefer the skyride idea - since I'm essentially lazy. ;)

Id love to have a denos type wheel with back to back seating and open cars OTSR's of course but I think you'd be able to do it and still have clearance. Might have to make the wheel a little wider. Why not Tickle Paula's fancy and let em spin as well as swing :) Or you could put Tornado cars on it :)

Darn, I should have patten-end that!
