The next flat ride. What will it be?

I think some kind of frisbee/afterburner type ride might be next, they seem to be popping up all over the country. However Cedar Point doesn't seen all that interested in these kinds of rides. Of all the new rides introduced in the next 10 years, only Chaos has caught their eye.

Probably another spinning ride.

A simulated line ride....

I wouldn't doubt if CP gets a giant Huss ride. With Knotts getting a large ride of this type, it wouldnt supprise me. In fact I would LOVE for them to get that type of ride, TR:TR is very fun, I would be so excited if CP got something like that, even without the themeing.

4 words...."Land of the Giants".......That would be fantastic! I read an interview with a Huss big wig somewhere that said a park was looking at a "Land of the Giants" but (of course) he didn't say what park.

I too am hoping for a giant Huss ride, or a whole "land" of them. You know what, I don't even care if it's a giant, just something new and different would be good. PCW has to have the best selection of flat rides, especially with the addition of a Jump2. I'd be happy with a couple of the flats they have.

Don't get me wrong, I like what is available at the park. I would just like to see some of the newer flats that are there today.

After checking out the Huss web site. I must say, I wouldn't mind some giant Huss rides. Heck, I'd be thrilled with the classic Huss rides. They all look fun & thrilling.

I'd love to see them get a giant Top Spin.

Aside from a flat I'd also be great if they got a Virginia Reel and placed it back in Frontier Town...seems like it'd fit in nicely with the area.

Cedar Fair's Worlds of Fun got a Giant Top Spin for the 2002 season. It is called Thunder Hawk

Cedar Point has a large selection of flat rides. They don't need new ones by any means (unless your talking to a buff). Don't expect anything great, expecially considering their last buy, Chaos, has had its share of trouble.

IMO, although I would love a "land of the giants" it would be a total barfing nightmare! I would definately not want to be a sweep in that area of the park.

Where would CP put it? If they got it? I think it would be cool to place the Land of the Giants in frontiertown/ trail. If they could scatter them a little. As long as CP doesn't take too many trees out. They should plant more trees! :)

Is Power Counted as a flat ride. Look at this new Intamin ride. The Spinning Star Ride scroll down 1.

Seeing as Power Tower raises 200 some odd feet, no it's not a flat ride.

I say rip out Peanuts Playground and put "Land of the Giants" there with some nice landscaping. Or, since the Pirate Ride was taken away, the Blue Streak midway is empty these days...that would be a good location to spruce things up. I really hope CP gets a Giant Frisbee. I also like the look of the new ride by Huss, "Topple Tower".

I think the Blue Streak midway would be a nice place for a new flat. There's not enough room for a coaster, and too much room for what's there now.
