Speculation & Rumors

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that on Ge central but it also had the SLC going over the water

Plot twist: La Ronde doesn't want it anymore and they're giving it back to put up. Happy new coaster-ing!

As much as I want a new coaster, I'll be happy with whatever this is. I'm always happy with dry park additions no matter the size

Hate to see thunder alley go but I am really excited on what could possibly be coming

I just got to thinking I think it is pretty safe to say we won't be getting a euro fighter. As good of a fit it would be, we won't see SFI go with gerstlauer for a while. Six flags is in the middle of a lawsuit with them over the Texas gaint incident

Very true, but companies like Premier and Zierer could build a similarly scaled coaster.

Didn't zamperla experiment with the coaster with a vertical lift?

That vertical lift was the only thing I was looking forward to on that original Thunderbolt design at Luna Park. They made me mad once when it wasn't a new woodie and mad a second time when it wasn't a vertical lift with a ocean/beach view anymore and mad a third time when it costs $10 a ride (but I guess I expect the last one).

And for TGE I'm going out on a limb and predicting a splash battle replacing the thunder alley. Wet attraction in the dry park and keeping it family focused.

The only thing is the Splash Battle at GAm was almost a waste of money for them being so unpopular as it is- they look cool at least to me though.

The markers are in such weird places though which is really confusing to me. But they are in big enough spaces where you could place footers and track with minimal disruptions to the train or Boomerang's queue.

Hopefully more markers pop up. What if this isn't anything 2015 related lol.

Cyclones markers were orange maybe red means something other than construction. Maybe a power upgrade. I just don't see that area of the park needing any power upgrade unless 2016 brings a launch which will require a significant amount of power.

But IMO I dont think you would be able to fit much other than a custom coaster due to thunder alley the train and boomerang being relativity close.

And I just don't see a coaster going into SFNE TGE and SFGRADV all the same year. Although nothing is conformed for great adventure

I dont know why splash battle rides aren't popular, because i have ridden the one at dollywood and i thought it was an awesome ride if you don't mind getting soaked. It would be a great addition to tge. The only coaster rumor i have heard for tge is our mind eraser be relocated there, but that was 2 years ago.

That's because most of them are not like Dollywoods. The one at Storyland is OK but nothign special a glorified sprayground. yes it gets you wet but the ride aspect is very boring. it is a very family focused ride so a park like TGE which is a family park woudl fare better then SFGAm which is a much more thrill focused park. Older teens and adults are not goign to flock to this ride.

I rather see a twist and splash tea cup style ride over a plash battle. would take up less space and leave room for another addition down the line.
