    We did not mention all the statistics during the announcement because statistics are not what make a roller coaster great; it's the ride experience it delivers that makes it great.

  • It's good to see me, isn't it? No need to respond! That was rhetorical. Under 30 days until Banshee makes its public debut! We can't wait for you to come out and experience this ride.

    We have guests that are more excited about our live shows than our roller coasters, that visit the park specifically for the shows. For these guests, the Cirque Imagine announcement was as exciting as

What's the yellow spot behind the bathrooms? Posted Image

It's the Banshee Creature you're so crazy about.

The Banshee thing was just because the light looked like a Banshee. Besides its over the bier gartens.

If I'm counting correctly, I see 4 cranes in operation at the moment for the work they're doing right now. That's a heck of a lot of coordination.

Now that the biggest crane is named Clifford, what are the other threes names?

Can we call the black and yellow one bumblebee?

And maybe the orange and yellow one could be Phoenix. And the baby crane could be called "baby".

I see three cranes and a boom lift. The orange and tan one is the boom lift. It can have a basket( for a person to stand in) or forks (to lift heavy equipment/parts) attached to it. Boom lifts scare the crap out of me when they sway a little (use to work in construction for a while).

Things are shaping up for a rollercoaster top off this week....fingers crossed...scroll in close and you can see a worker on top of the track (5:28 pm)

Just wondering, where could a 2017 coaster go? Surely not in Action Zone, but maybe the station could be in place of the action theatre? Maybe? Just thinking.

The next coaster to be built will likely go where Vortex sits.

That sounds about right considering a lot of people think Vortex is rough. Hopefully we put a Floorless in.

I think that the next coaster will be an intamin giga. So if ki were to put in an intamin giga, where could that go?

I would think Action Zone

At a Six Flags?

I just don't see them building an Intamin anything for a while. A B&M Giga is a possibility. I think it comes down to either a B&M giga somewhere between Action Zone and xbase, A multi-looper(floorless, wing or regular sit down) replacing Vortex, or I could see a newer generation wood coaster between x base and Action Zone.

I don't see any coaster for a few years. I think they will concentrate on uping the flat ride choices.

I would like to see a coaster that had a station near the back of the Eiffel Tower in the grassy area by backlot, and it went north and south over most of coney. If that makes sense.

If they take Vortex down they should build a blitz coaster in its place.

I don't understand why everyone thinks that Vortex is going to be taken down.

I think The Vortex seems pretty popular. And if it had problems and needed replacement parts, S&S, the group that bought out Arrow, would probably provide it. I don't see Vortex leaving the Island anytime soon.

I don't think Votex will be removed before KI puts in their next coaster. I'm just saying if it were removed

Off topic much?

Can't wait to see the new sections of Banshee in person on Friday!

They should tear down AE and use that land with old SOB land. Also they could build one and run it thought woods where the Train and White Water Cannon is.

No way! I think a lot of families would be saddened If Adventure Express was removed. I know for me growing up, it was one roller coaster that I loved riding at night. What was great about it this year was that you felt like you were riding in the dark. No lights around at all.

^^Why should they tear down AE? It's a great ride. KI has many other options...

I was just playing on the stupidity and sillyness of the topic; strictly sarcastic.

Looks like the loop will go through the piece of track that's up right now based on the renderings.
