Any word or thought on a ride for 2006???

Not that I believe it, but, according to Screamscape, CP may get an S&S Screamin' Swing.

This was posted on Theme Park Review as well (in the forums, but I'd guess Screamscape was his source anyway).

They also MAY get a floorless, or a flying, or topspin, or new kiddie land, or a rebuilt WWL.....Screamscape has said CP MAY get many things, but if you throw enough ideas out there, you're bound to be right eventually.

I was reading over the old thread titled "The Mysterious, possible footers" that showed up in the Area 51 search. Was it ever said why the footers were poured so soon?

Well, they started erecting the tower during the week when HalloWeekends was going on, so they probably did it to get a jump on construction. It was always suspected that the footings were incredibly massive, but I don't think we ever got any detailed information on just how large they are. If they were that huge though, I would imagine that it would take them longer to fully cure than your normal footing.

The wall and subsequent "Cedar Point is building of the future" sign was a really good "buzz" generator. Had they just landscaped that area and not had the fence, it would have been more of a shock once they started breaking ground, but the chance to get people talking about it would have been lost.

If they chose to do this (which is a long shot) I think it would be cool if they situated the flyer's lift above the floorless's so the people in the trains could watch the other as they went up the lift. *** Edited 7/20/2005 3:33:56 AM UTC by CP_bound***

Only problem with this is that on a floorless you would be above and and you go up the flying lift on your back so you wouldn't really see eachother.

I've seen 2 different styles of flyer though. One, you start on top of the track facing backwards, and then it lays down and the first drop rolls you over into a flying position. The other style I've seen (not that I can remember what coaster) you get in like an invert, and then your legs swing up behind you, and you are already underneath the track "flying" up the lift.

WWL TC and The Cars take up a lot of room. All they have to do is take one of them out and theres a lot room for a roller coaster. Hopefully thr cars the because they already have 3 of them.

I'm not talking about the "single track with two trains on it" idea if I had confused anyone.

I was talking about having them both separate and the floorless would below the flyer. B&M's flyers climb the lift like an invert does; under the track. Vekoma does the roll at the top like JuggaLotus explained.

I had thought of the spitting thing that John mentioned earlier, but you are arriving back at the same station, so you could point the little bastard out to a ride op/security. :)

I don't really want dueling coasters, we already have Gemini.

Gemini is a racing coaster, basically a twin tracked coaster where both sides are very nearly identical. A dueling coaster is two coasters which interweave each other and have VERY different layouts. It wouldn't be like getting another gemini.

Screamscape says we might get two rides next year. A Screamin' Swing (BAD IDEA) and a water ride.

Read the 4th post from the top on the page!

*SQUEEEEEEZE* Ahh better, hey look, an idea came out too....well, its no less accurate than screamscape.

CP bound- Sorry, I didn't see that. Don't hurt yourself.

I flipped Vekoma's fliers and BM's. I thought BM's you get on and ride on your back.

I tend to agree with the others stating that a flyer would never be able to keep up with a floorless, unless the track layouts were substantialy different and the flyer was physicaly traveling a shorter distance. It would almost be as if the floorless was toying with the flyer, being able to double back and do loops or corkscrews completely around it. So as to have each ride time the same and have them finish together.

That was funny as hell. :}!!!!!!!!!

I vote one track is an inverted, one is a floorless.

Would a BM Flyer be able to have a cobra roll like raptor does? If CP put one on a flyer that would set it apart from the ones Six Flags put in their parks which are pretty much the same layout.
