Not bad. A nice big lawn would be an improvement.

---

remove the ride and add a completely different ride,

---

Hmmm...better. It would even be nice to see Ultra Twister reassembled at some point this century.

---

remove and add some sort of water flume ride,

---

Good, good. Every park needs a flume.

---

repair and modify the existing ride.

---

DOH! *BZZZZZZT!!!* And we were doing so well...

TAeR iT doWn!!!11!one! It's a waste of space...a lot of space. I'll even volunteer to help out if they'd consider imploding it like they did the Capital Center a few years ago.

He said it is a good chance that TSC could be SBNO for another season, but it will all depend on what the chain decides to do.

---

Meh, what's one more season? It's pretty much been SBNO since it was built. And hell, they can wreck it next year to celebrate its 10th anniversary. How apropos.

:)

Oh Vater! You had to remind me that TSC's 10 year anniversary was next season. Oh Dear, oh dear! What to do. Tear it down or save it. Perhaps hire Intamin to get it to work right since Intamin has probably even touched the ride to begin with.

Does anyone know if there has be a successfull installation of this kind of ride?

---

I'm pretty sure BPB's Valhalla dark ride/flume (which is excellent, by the way) is a variant on those "modern" Intamin flumes. Are there any others out there?

^That's the only other one that I know of.

Wasn't there an installation out at WBMW Spain under the name Rio Bravo?

I'll bet that WBMW Spain hasn't had half as much trouble with theirs in four years of operation compared to the problems SFA has had with TSC over the past nine years.
