Transportable Rapids Ride

I guess I haven't. It's pretty weird because I have heard that SFAW doesn't have any more room and that if they get a new coaster they would have to take out another coaster or something. I would have never thought that they would be getting a new one.

No worries, FT Fan. Just because a park doesn't have open space doesn't mean they can't build on top of or over something that already exists.

That's pretty weird also, and it wouldn't look right either. "Look mommy at that roller coaster on top of that ride, hope it doesn't fall!"

Something happened and I asked, "Wow, is that supposed to happen?"

FT Fan - I strongly suggest you check out these pics of Indiana Beach's Cornball Express

to see an example of a coaster built right over a kiddieland.

FTF - The interplay between the rides is great, and really adds to the overall experience. I'm sure that everyone at SFAW will love the new additions.

Agreed, chris. I actually recreated what I believe it will look like in RCT, including the geysers under the corks to get the riders wet. I'll have to send it to you ;-)

And just think, with ShockWave only being half of it's former glory, they need even LESS space to put it up! Does that mean half the headache? Half the Tylenol?

:P

Hey, good slogan for next year! SFAW. Half the Fun! Double the price!!!

Du8die - actually Arrow is helping with the reconstruction of the two coasters and even manufacturing a few new pieces of track as part of the agreement stemming from the whole X debacle. I just hope they get their transititons right this time!

That looks dangerous. Looks like the rafts could easily flip over.
As of this moment, SFAW is NOT getting Shockwave.

You're correct, BrandonR. But then, no one is getting *all* of Shockwave.
