Could we see more B&M's get lowered to 48"?

With Rapterra and (allegedly) Thunderbird getting 48" requirements on Wing coasters, and Iron Menace being 48" on a Dive, could we see others like Gatekeeper, Yukon Striker, or maybe even Banshee get lowered to 48"?


Counting down the days until I'm back at Cedar Point, the one and only place to be.

No way Cedar Flags does this. Some of the legacy Six Flags coasters with 42" height requirements were raised to 48" this season post-merger.

They did lower Millennium Force's Height Requirement from 54" to 48" after it opened. It would not be impossible for them to consider it, unless you believe they will raise the height for millennium force

Holiday World posted a really cute video on their socials announcing the new height requirement for Thunderbird so I’d say it’s official at this point.
