I think the park will announce either a BM Inverted or a BM Floorless. I am leaning toward the Inverter with the plunge off the cliff you all spoke of. I think Volcano Valley with a new BM Inverted would be a very nice addition to Kennywood.
Wanna know what's going on? Narrow it down by eliminating everything you see above; especially everything from a certain "we're getting 5 new coasters in the next 10 years" joker who seems to think that if he makes stuff up it'll come true.

You mean I've been pronouncing it wrong this whole time? My friends are gonna have a hoot (pronounced "hut." wow, bad joke) when I speak about HUSS Top Spins now! Oh boy!
There will be a HUSS (pronounced Hoos) Top Spin for 2003.

I don't know why Kennywood would create a new land if they have no plans to add a coaster or a high profile ride there. Does anyone know why the park would do this?

Thank you kpjb! If it wasn't you, it would've been me.

Some top bananas from Vekoma were wandering around this year, too, but I don't see one of theirs in the future, either. They were actually at the park to see what we had instead of the other way around!
People from manufacturers and other parks are always checking out what's out there. It means nothing to see them at a park. There are a lot of rides we buy where a company rep never shows up until the thing is delivered.

Actually, I don't at the moment I do know there are a couple of people looking into the ride. There is actually a RUMOR that it may go to Idlewild, if that is true that would be great to keep the ride in one of Kennywood's sister parks:)

Well I do remember the Roll-o-plane was down for most of the 2001 season because of a part can't remember??? I think it was also hard for people to operate the ride. And the last thing alot of people didn't like the ride because you got bounced around all over the place. Plus the Capacity for the ride was awful. That's all I know..

How big is Volcano Valley? Is it large enough for a floorless or an inverted or a dive machine? Now that I think about it, a dive machine would be cool there, but BM hasn't made a dive machine in quite a few years and that probaly means that no parks want it. If Kennywood wanted a vertical drop roller coaster, they might get a Vekoma Tilt instead of a BM dive machine. A Vekoma Tilt is more recent and has been made with loops and would be the first of its kind in America.I don't know why Kennywood would create a new land if they have no plans to add a coaster or a high profile ride there. Does anyone know why the park would do this?
Volcano Valley isn't big at all, in fact it isn't actually a new area, rather an old area being rethemed. In fact, Kennywood actually had to remove something (the bathrooms) just to make room for King Kahuna, so I highly doubt we'll even see a smaller coaster in that area.
IMO, I think Kennywood's next coaster will be a woodie, but they're always so full of surprises that it's impossible to predict anything they will do. :)
