IAAPA 2001: S&S has six new Insane rides in store for next year

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

S&S Power said they are installing six more of the "Absolutely Insane" rides in the coming year. The first three were installed at Six Flags Magic Mountain, Knott's Berry Farm and Cedar Point.

CoasterBuzz will post an exclusive interview with S&S chief Stan Checketts later this week.

I rode ThrillShot at SFMM and it is awesome.  Parks should get one, but I hope it doesn't get as bad as SkyCoasters.  They are everywhere!
-----------------
Totally SFMM 2.0
ITS SOO NOT FAIR HOW SFMM AND CEDAR POINT GETS THE GOOD STUFF FIRST THERE R OTHER PARKS OUT THEIR LIKE SFGADV
SFGADV gets the good stuff first, they've gotten more of the good stuff than SFMM.  What about Batman & Robin Chiller, Viper, Shockwave, Lightning Loops, and the great Medusa(and those are just first of kind, you've also got Batman:The Ride, Nitro, GASM, and you're getting an Acrophobia) so I wouldn't complain.  Six Flags Magic Mountain and Cedar Point don't always get the good stuff first but they get the BEST of the good stuff!
I'd love to trade you:

* Riddler's Revenge for Medusa

*Disaster Transport for anything to get rid of that piece of junk in a box, I mean Skull Mountain

*Corkscrew for Great American Scream Machine

*Cedar Creek Mine Ride(it bites, the 6 foot drop,might I add largest drop, doesn't come till the middle of the ride) for Runaway Minetrain

*Flashback for Batman & Robin Chiller

*I'd even trade Magnum for Nitro if I could

Point is, you guys have some great stuff, stuff that can't be counted as better than ours!

It's known that Gary Story of Six Flags bought a handful of these rides to pepper around the chain.  Six Flags Over Texas and Six Flags Astroworld are most likely getting  Thrill-Shots. 

It's an upcharge attraction, of course. 

I have been hearing things saying Valleyfair may get a smiliar type of Vertigo ride like Cedar Point for 2002. What are the od's of Valleyfair getting another S&S? I think they may place it by challange park if they do.
