PKI to add Delirium for 2003

Don't we love all this confusion just because PKI chose a name that just happens to be the same as other ride model. Can you imagine what would happen if they decided to call the 2003 attraction "Top Spin" :)

Again, will they add a new coaster though?

Oh, and will you need a child with you to go on the Scooby Doo ride like you do at Paramount Canada's Wonderland, or will PKI be cool and let you ride without a child?

No new coaster in 2003.

I doubt you will need a child. They tried it with Phantom Theatre 2 seasons ago and it flopped. They reversed the decision after one day of operation.

Okay, thanks. Of course, I don't like the idea of replacing a coaster with something other than a coaster or dark ride.

How big did you say the new coaster was going to be, Shaggy?! (j/k) I'm trusting Shaggy on this one, and am very much looking forward to April already. I'm not the biggest fan of flats, but I see myself eagerly waiting in line for this one! (assuming it is a giant frisbee)

It is clearly going to be just a Giant Frisbee. If the Huss Interview from On-Ride Central was a real interview then the representative clearly stated that the Delerium will be offered in 2004. Here is the excerpt from On-Ride Central Huss Interview:

B.S.: How much interest has been shown in the new line of "Giant Rides" as opposed to the standard rides?

B.D.: The first half of the calendar year is focused on Giant Rides. Giant Top Spin was introduced in 2002, JUMP2 and Giant Frisbee are under contract and available for 2003 installation and we are now offering Delirium and Dive Bomber for 2004. It is not easy to create and market new concepts in this prototype sensitive world, so we feel quite fortunate to have enjoyed some early success.

As you can clearly see that Delirium will be offered starting in 2004. So there is no way its a "Huss Delirium".

With reference to the multi-armed ride quote, I'm guessing they are just referring to the legs that hold up the ride, just another way to confuse us enthusiasts. Or like someone said a new design for the ride.

I don't know, guys...I think Sawblade might be right this time. Wait...let me try to say that without laughing ;-)

LOL chris...I've just deducted one goon from your beat-down ;-)

I'm sure I'll make up for it before then. I've got nine days, after all.

So is PKI slowly moving in the entire Huss "Land of the Giants" family of new gen. flats? First Tomb Raider (giant topspin), and now a giant Delirium...

But a HUSS Giant Top Spin doesn't go upside down or have multiple arms. Could it be a Jump2?

Vertigo: They already have a top spin. Did you mean frisbee?

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

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't Giant Frisbees go to 120 degrees? (while the regulars go to 90) Sounds upside down to me!

Well, then to support your argument. Millennium Force has inversions? Along with any other Intamin with highbanks/overbanks?

Well, if you're going to use a name from a DIFFERENT flatride, why not pick something totally inane, like for instance Wave Swinger or Inverter....I mean, that IS confusing, even to those of us who make *too much* of this hobby....

So this means that Canada's Wonderland is getting the Huss Jump 2.

Bah...We need a new coaster!! It's been too long!

Yes Wonderland is getting a Huss Jump 2. If you feel unhappy about that, just go to Hussrides.com and download the video for it. That thing looks insanely wicked!

Ironically enough, the PKI season passholder newsletter uses the rendering that Wonderland used to promote their "Psyclone" Mondial Frisbee prior to it's install this year.

I will drive anywhere that installs a Jump2 and gets it working properly.

Great Adventure's Jump, when operating, is one of the most forceful, fun rides I've ever seen. If Canada's Wonderland gets a Jump2, coupled with their Top Scan, I'll be asking for asylum and saying, "Great ride, eh?" in about two seconds.

Mabyee Huss has a contract with Paramount and will keep the Delirium / Tsunami model off of the market untill then. When PGA announced Delirium it was thought to have been that ride and the Huss site said Delirium was opening its first instalition in 2002 but it must have not been ready because PGA ended up with a Chance Revoulition
