One final note I will be in the park within the next two weeks when I find time to drop of some equipment off. I will try and let you guys know for sure were its goeing and maybe even take pictures.
Less than an hour to the closest 1. Raging Rivers has an earlier version of the same slide.
Just a couple of G-Force junkies!
As far as the 06 ride goes. I was informed back in October that it will be for 06. Now i would love to tell you who i heard this from. However, I choose not to say because I dont want it to hamper my job duties. Especially since I go into the park in the middle of winter. I dont wnat people thinking I go in there for looks when i am actully working. Its hard to explain and i expect none of you to understand even if I told you. Just take it or leave it, but been a charter member of this board since 2000.
Its not my choice if you choose to listen or discredit. I am just here to inform.
Thankfully, with my sister at Grad School at GWU, I'll get to visit this park the next two years, so I don't care in which the new coaster comes.
The Tornado is a different kind of slide, the Tornado is much larger and is tilted onto it's side. Some of you may need to watch this video to see what the Tornado is like. http://www.proslide.com/whatsnew/ProSlideTornado.rmvb

Man, SOMEONE from their marketing dept. needs to find a new job...;-P...:)
Where do we start?
SFSTL, I can see a long, bleak and rather slow season ahead. I jsut hope the park can hunker down and hold out.
Yeah, just like HW did when they built the first one. And no new coaster. For years.
This park is going into the crapper. Park execs can't even come up with a reason to add something decent to it. A slide!?! Is that all that this park is worth?
That's funny...when SFStl built their free lil' waterpark, WoF's attendance figures were never the same.
Myself, I dont really care for Hurricane Harbor! It's always too crowded there!
Egg. Freakin'. ZACTLY.
It's where everybody else besides you wants to go. And guess what? This year, it's gonna be five times worse.
They'll have to add more slides next year just to give the crowds more things to do! If they're smart, they'll add a clone of HW's Jungle Racer. Nothing in your park has air like the final hop on that slide. Nothing. And this is from a guy who considers The Boss his #1 woodie.

Hey I made that comment on what I have seen from the last 5 season I have worked there. So sorry if I am being pesamistic but the parks attendence has been steadly declining each year over all since 2000. Hey what the hell do I know I am jsut a coaster dork.
Also HW is a completly diffrent park althougher. The water park there on average back in the old days use to be more crowded then the amusment park.
And HW being a different park altogether? Nobody's buying it who can see past their Coaster Jones. Exactly why you see Tornadoes popping up everywhere...
Maybe it's time a few coaster dorks slip their manboobs and bellies under a dark shirt and join everybody else in the 21st century. The coaster building craze is done and the waterpark age has begun. Besides, there's loads of homely folks with Flabulomas and BackFros already standing in line.

I am not even going to sit here and argue with you. It’s pointless; I just simply state my opinions, knowledge and observation. Don’t really care if you or anyone else thinks I am right, wrong or crazy.
P.s. I don’t have a "BackFro", I have a "A$% Fro" with dread locks. So get it right
PS: Bossstl, A$$ fro? eh? *** Edited 12/21/2004 12:42:28 AM UTC by CoasterMatt***
