So you're saying there's a chance. Yesss!
I'd really like to see an Arrow suspended like Top Gun at WoF, but save OE's lot for OE's Revenge and its pair of interlocking vertical loops. ;)

New coaster with interlocking loops is cool. Naming it Orient's Revenge ? We don't have a floorless or standing?

There won't be another stand-up at WOF. I can almost guarantee that. There will definitely be something there in the future -- hard to say right now though.

I vote for a floorless--the first beemer with interlocking vertical loops:
OE's Revenge - The Empire Strikes Back :)

I tend to think we'll get a rocket coaster before a floorless as we are the only MO park without a launched coaster. :(

Bah, waste of money IMO. 12 million for the launch, then 3 million more for a short 15-second ride. I do like the Freeze coasters. How do they compare in price to the Intamins?
Now, that I think about it, I bet you're right. I just hope it's not an Impulse.

I would imagine something along the lines of Storm Runner.

That would be much more acceptable (to me) than an impulse, but I'd rather see a good multi-looper with several drops like OE had. Start with the basics, and then go for the fluffy novelties.

Well if they DO go with a multi-looper I hope they go with a Wildfire style coaster and not floorless as all the ones I have ridden (sans Kyrpton Coaster) are really tame.

I hope it has more than one drop though. Wildfire is alright, but could use some more tricks than just inversion after inversion (like pretty much every looper out there) How 'bout something like Kumba? Sure it has lots of loopies, but at least it has more than one drop and the camel/zero G thingy is kind of a drop itself. *** Edited 10/27/2005 8:56:32 PM UTC by Acoustic Viscosity***

Rocket Coaster interlocking loops and cobra roll with a double down they put what else they want LoL.

Does any Rocket have a cobra roll? Would it be possible? If so what else would anyone want to see on a Rocket that hasn't been done? *** Edited 10/28/2005 4:02:02 AM UTC by TonyBlackjack***

Almost. Ran out of daylight. It appeared that they had some trouble getting one of pieces of track situated. I think they will top it off tomorrow morning and then continue the run to the roll. A friend of mine who drove by the park said that they had the next few supports ready to go up.

Can hardly wait to see this thing from inside the park this weekend. :)

Yes should be cool. As long as weather cooperates they should work on this all winter long right?

Rocket with a double down---yeahhh, but hopefully sans OTSR's. Why wouldn't a cobra roll be possible?
If they would make a full size multi-looper launcher and not just half a coaster, I'd be all for that. :)

Webcam is back up and you can now see that they still have the second half of the loop to put up.

I meant on a straight up rocket coaster not LIm not any of the other kind. I Imagine since there is rockets with loops that it is possible but oh well. Just asking for the sake of conversation.

No worries; it's all good. Intamin probably wouldn't do one with their current lap bar restraint design though. And OTSR's are just unacceptable. :)

Swoosh says: The only thing that I have in common with Moosh is that I like coasters. The similarities END there.

That's it! No more comedy team.

EDIT - hey...how about some more pics, chief?
