for a kiddie coaster i would like a vekoma kiddie invert like flying ace aerial chase at kings island. and for another coaster i think a zacspin would be cool. and i remember a youtube video that shows a design of something simialer to a zacspin on a cedar point documentary and if i find it i will post it.

stop at 1:55 and you can clearly see a design of a zacspin.

^^You're right!! And I'm guessing that zacspins don't take that long to construct

You are interested in those Zac Spin models? I am more interested in that coaster diagram on the desk, not sure why they would have the plans out (and show them on a national tv show) though... I think the Zac Spins are just in the idea stage there, but that coaster diagram does not just get made up for no reason...

Just saying this, I believe the guy has these just as what he says they are, just alot of ideas. I doubt CP will get a zacspin...There's no capacity for them, and on top of that it's too short of a ride. I think most of us wouldn't enjoy waiting hours for a 30 second ride or so..

Yes but this is basically like combining skyscraper from challenge park and putting it on a roller coaster track...

But it seriously doesn't look thrilling...You do a few flips, a few very very small drops, and then it's over...I feel as if woodstock express is more worthwhile than a zacspin...

IMO a coaster designer's child at Intamin just scribbled on a piece of paper, and this is what it's from...Hence Zac Spin :P....but seriously this is pathetic...

This documentary was filmed and releasesd around the time maverick was being built. In 2006 those may have just been ideas, but now those "ideas" might be real projects that they have been working on. Doesnt it take them 3 or 4 years to plan and design a major coaster? it's been 4 since that documentary was filmed

Yes I also heard that it takes several years for the planning. I really think that a new coaster will come in 2013. I'm hoping for one in 2012, but I doubt it will happen. And the new coaster better not be a zacspin. Its low capacity and just a boring looking ride.

I think the capacity issue alone would make CP hit the brakes, but are CP's capacity issues greater than SFMM's?

They also didn't have park operations the entire month of October.

The designs on the tables look like the B&M hypers for the Paramount parks. You can see the trains on the posted on the wall.

How much did Green Lantern cost? Maybe to solve capacity Cedar Point can install two intertwining Zacspins.

How about a mine train themed wild mouse to replace Mine Ride? I think that would bring some good variety. The newer mouse coasters are a lot different than Wildcat.

FLYER:) I WANT ONE.

I think cp should get rid of wildcat and replace it with a new and safer version. It keeps crashing
