Fantasy Amusement Parks

I would like:
Nitro, S:UF with an added element or two neetly nestled in dense woods, Beast of course, X (with all the problems worked out), Scream (they are just building it at SFMM to make sure it works for me), Raptor but with a more compact layout (ie turn the cobra roll and that next to the station), Xcelerator with bunny hops, Raging wolf bob's (cause I thought I was going to fall out), and my wooden terrain twister I'm designing.

This is really hard cause I want so much more.

Wood Rules!

I would build a 421' Arrow non-looper.

Some people would have quite a large park to work with...I guess that's what makes it a "fantasy"

Well, I will try to have a diverse collection:

Boulder Dash - My fave woodie and a great terrain coaster

Lightning Racer - A great woodie that is fun for all ages.

Beast - Why not

Alpengiest - Best inverted I've been on IMO

S:RoS (SFNE) - Best coaster out there (that I've been on that is)

Big Thunder Mountain - A classic that is great fun for everyone

Wild Mouse (Hershey) - Need this one for some variety

Chiller (assuming I could get it to work properly) - I love launched coasters

And maybe I would throw a kiddie coaster in there for the young'ens.

Of course the above choices assume that the same terrain could be duplicated in my fantasy park.

Den - That joke is *so* last week.

I'd actually like to make a park themed after the Island of Misfit Toys.

Oh yeah...SFAg already has that covered.

Heh.

Okay......Dragster is the obvious, even though none of us have been on it yet.

MF, Raptor, Gemini, Blue Streak, Xcelerator, Lightning Racer, Screechin Eagle, The Beast, SOB, Flight of Fear, Volcano, Hypersonic, Batman The Ride (I perfer the SFMM one), Riddler's Revenge, Thunderbolt, California Screamin, Great Bear, Nitro, Legend, Raven, Batman & Robin: The Chiller, Montezooma's Revenge, X-Flight, Goliath, Steel Force, Apollo's Chariot, Superman: The Escape......

Why stop at coasters? Please! I wanna Huss spinning frisbee, the biggest Intamin Gyro-drop, a S&S drop, a Chaos, Tilt-a-Whirl, the Cedar Downs, a Bayern Kurve, the Aero 360, a Powersurge, Knoebel's Haunted House, Camden Park's Whip, and a collection of skycoasters, skyscrapers, sling-shots, and the biggest freakin arcade on earth with every arcade game known to man from PONG to DDR and beyond.

I haven't done this yet, but put in a parasailing area and a place to go skydiving and BASE jumping and I am a happy camper.

Other rides I would have in my park that I haven't tried yet but want to just because:

Shivering Timbers, Dueling Dragons, Hulk, Mr. Freeze, Raging Bull.. the old Crystal Beach Cyclone.....I could go on! I have always wanted to try a Steeplechase too.

Can't believe no one's said M:TR.

You'd need a pretty big plot of land to fit that ride...

-----------------
Welcome to the New & Improved Coasterbuzz...tomfoolery allowed!

You'd also need a pretty big bathroom by the exit.

Including terrain, where applicable:

Nemesis, Hulk, Superman: Ultimate Flight, Phantom's Revenge, Phoenix, Raven, Legend, Grand National, and the Astroland Cyclone.

For flats, a Social Mixer, Waltzer, Afterburner, Top Spin, Whip, Flyers, Kangaroo, Roll-o-Plane, Zipper, Downdraft, Music Express, and some good Lusse Bumper Cars. For starters, anyway.

ROFL! Good one, chris. OK...seriously, my fantasy park:

Moosh's flat ride rule - minimum of three flat rides for every coaster. I'd offer a mix of classic flats and new modern spin & pukes, and definitely a few dark rides and a drop tower, too.

Moosh's water ride rule - gotta have a flume, rapids ride, and shoot-the-chutes.

Moosh's coaster rule #1 - one kiddie coaster for every 5 adult coasters, and one family coaster for every 4 adult coasters.

Moosh's coaster rule #2 - at least one wood and one steel must be terrain coasters.

I'd prefer my park to have a "classic" look and be without theme elements, although I'm not against theme elements on individual rides.

As for the types of coasters I'd like to have:

Wood - at least one out-n-back and one twister. I'd like to see a recreation of Rye's Aeroplane or Woodcliffe's Blue Steak. A racer or duel/racer would be cool, too, perhaps a recreation of the LB Cyclone Racer.

Steel - a 220-250 foot Intamin hyper, a B&M Inverted, an Intamin linear gale shuttle, Arrow or Morgan mine train, Schwarzkopf shuttle, and a Schwarzkopf Jet Star or similar.

Lots of shade, places to sit, waterfalls and lakes, bathrooms, restaurants, friendly and efficient ride ops, and of course free parking and soft drinks ;)

Moosh - who will build this park someday.

I limited the fantasy park to just coasters because I sensed what has already happend here. Several people, including myself, are so overwhelmed with the options and posibilities with the selection of coasters, not wanting to leave any out. I thought it would be easier to just list the coasters instead of everything avoiding very long posts of every ride in your fantasy park.

Keeping Youngstown Living Exciting

I think I would keep my park simple and not overload it with every type of coaster imaginable.

Wood - SFGAm's Viper and SFMW's Roar. Both have nice compact footprints and offer terrific rides.

Steel - SFWoA's Double Loop (for the family) as well as an intermediate coaster for the younger crowd. For the more adventurous, I'll take Zonga (though I have never ridden it).

SFWoA: An Unofficial Guide
http://sfohio.tripod.com

I would have to have Millennium, Top Thrill Dragster, Phantom's Revenge, the Steel Phantom, X, Lightning Racer, Alpengiest, Duelling Dragons, Hulk, Raptor, Mantis, Jack Rabit, Thunderbolt, Nitro, Goliath, Ghost Rider, Steel Dragon, Magnum. Wow, the list would go on for ever. If this was my park, I would just have to have a Chaos. I can't get enough of it. It is my favorite flat ride.

-----------------
There is a new twist in the Top-Hat. :)

Hrm. Aside from a few folks (Moosh notably) this seems to have degenerated into, name your top n coasters. Can we at least be a little realistic (my point in my first post, which I guess didn't make it due to everyone's lack of l33t h4x0r skizzl3z).

Thanks, Andy. I didn't include any current favs in my fantasy park because I want to be able to be involved in the design of new favorites ;)

Welcome to the New & Improved Coasterbuzz...tomfoolery allowed!

My fantasy park would have free soft drinks, free parking, free sunscreen, the friendliest employees, the cleanest grounds, and some world class wooden coasters :)
