CONFIRMED! B&M for WOF in 2006

Or 3, Captain Fianlly.

Down is the new up.

Flying Coaster, it's LC on there.

It would be interesting if the "IC" on the part number stood for Inverted Coaster but I doubt that has any relevance since Silver Bullet didn't have the same kind of code in it's part number labels.

With that said, I still think that it's an inverted coaster. It's the Cedar Fair formula. First given everyone a hypercoaster, then when it pays for itself, give them an inverted coaster. It seems to have been working for the rest of the parks in the chain.

It's still me, here from the beginning back in 1999. Add 1500+ posts to the number I have in the info section if you care about such things.

CPGenius - the Patriot part number is on a piece of track. The two Bullet examples was on a lift support and spacer, not track. Perhaps that makes a difference?

Just count the number of bolt holes. Patriot has 5 down one side. Silver Bullet has 7. The Super Man Ultimate Flight picture in the center of this: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1976.htm?picture=9 picture has 5. We can only pray.

RCDB says it is a inverted. I don't really like the white stripe. Where were these pics taken?

But I would like to see Cedar Fair build a flyer, test it on the crowds, and bring one to Cedar Point! *** Edited 7/7/2005 7:44:54 PM UTC by Keith2005***

My wife and I delayed a trip to WOF due to the new coaster, I can't wait, will be 2 more to add to the TR next year, SD and Patriot.

As I stated on the first page, if ALL parts of the rumors for this ride have held true so far, and the rumors started over a year ago, then why is a flyer even being considered?

It's inverted, and frankly I like it better that way.

Chattanooga needs a [B][I]ITG2[/I][/B] Machine!

pinkdoom,

Doesn't a flyer qualify as an inverted???

Fever I really enjoy the Simpsons. It's just a shame that I am starting to LOOK like Homer.

IC = Inverted coaster
LC = Laydown coaster

there is another new waterpark around here somewhere (I could give you directions if I cared about such things)

Grand Rios in Brooklyn Park? Yes.

HAZZOOLAH!

Gran Rios (a renovated Ramada Inn) has a toilet bowl, a body surfing station and a few other things. Think VF's WWC indoors. Not much.

The Waterpark of America--sporting the world's tallest indoor waterslide and America's largest indoor waterpark--will only be open to folks who rent a kazillion-buck-a-night room. They're right next to the Mall. Okay, next to the Phase II area anyway. Since that draws more visitors than any amusement park ever will...they'll have no problem booking it.

Neither one would impact a VF waterpark addition much. That is, if they chose to do so.

That raises another off topic question. Since the MoA does draw so many tourists, why doesn't VF try to build up to a destination park and leech off them? I don't know, maybe there is a good reason why not, but I am just wondering. There are very large parks in FL leeching off Disney World.

No no it's so many visitors, not tourists. There's a big difference.

A group of four teens who go to the Mall every Friday night equals 208 visitors. How many teens do VF every week? If they go 3-4 times a summer, they'd generally consider that 'a lot.'

Not to mention a great many of those tourists come for Christmas shopping or Spring Break--times VF can't capitalize on their presence. And did we mention the Mall's a theme park competitor now?

VF is a park for the locals. As the #15 metro area in America, that's really not so bad.

They are not going to fill the waterpark hotel with local visitors and I do remember hearing some incredible stats regarding the number of travelers MoA draws, but I guess the seasonal thing is an issue. The casinos market to the MoA guests, and now that Camp Snoopy is not CF, I hope that VF can too even if it is seasonal.

But Bingo Hip Granny doesn't care about a B&M!

It is deffinately an ivert due to the shape of the chain dog rails and stuff check pic 2 on rcdb.

The guys at RCDB are calling it an invert. I've never seen RCDB be wrong...

Bingo Hip Granny does not care about a waterpark either. There can be some gap in the marketing as seen by a few thrill parks in FL leeching off a relatively tame "family park".

Its an invert. I do agree that it would be awesome if this was a flyer and cF was testing it for cp
