Big Chief announces plans for a new coaster in 2005

OK.. I apologize for that last one. I was being rude and insensitive. I shouldn't rub it in so much!!:)

As far as Shockwave moving northwest...DENIED!!

---------------------------------------------------

Jon...who knows what Big Chief is getting but won't say because it's not my place.

But everyone will be more than happy when they finally find out!

Its about as far removed from Shockwave as it can possibly be ;)

I guess there are a lot of people in the loop. Or not in the loop, as the case may be -rim shot-.

I guess everyone will find out sooner or later ;) *** Edited 1/23/2004 7:31:02 PM UTC by Rob Ascough***

Did Screamscape just spill the beans? They posted today that they will build the tallest wooden coaster in the Midwest. Those in the know, is this correct?

Let the guessing game begin.

Isn't it pretty obvious it's probably going to be another wooden coaster?

I haven't been to the site before, so maybe its the same picture, but Gravity Group has a pretty wicked looking coaster in some shots on their main page. Check it out (then again my knowledge of woodens is lacking, it could just be shots of something that exists already).

Everything on GG's website looks awesome! If I had the cash...

To bad I won't see it for at least 4 years.

Notice on the Gravity Group news release Nick is now describing it as largest "in the region." LOL!

mOOSH

Maybe he saw the beginning of this thread and decided to reword his claim from the news article. ;)

Wood - anything else is an imitation

Wow. I thought maybe BC would try their hand at steel, but this is amazing news. I'm excited beyond words about GG's first woodie. I was wondering when it would finally come...

Never Has Gravity Been So Uplifting.

If its anything like S&S's first woodie... I'll skip it thank you very much... :-P

Well that news wasn't there when I first posted the site but kudos to me for figuring it out ;) I rock (end of gloating)

Considering all of these guys are very well regarded coaster designers I wouldn't expect it to be like S&S.
