A dueling wooden coaster sounds good to me. One like Gwazi in Tampa Bay. Or a regular great CCI woodie would be great. They need something like that. Maybe something like Shivering Timbers. Well tha's all i have to say.
I think depending on how this year and maybe next year go (Y2K Coaster if it happens) will determine what they do next. For example, if something is built 350ft+, then they should really consider 400. Anything above 412 I think people start to pass out, so just build it as high as humanly possible so they can't be beat. Just a little thought. They would never be beaten, CP would be forever the owner of the tallest coaster on the planet. On the other hand, if SOB takes off, I think we will see alot more inverting woodies, maybe even here. We'll just have to play it out. For now though, MF is enough!
please explain to us why people would begin to pass out on a coaster above 412 feet.
I got one! A floorless dueling woodie with 10 inversions. LOL!!!:)
You forgot one important thing, CP_genius... it has to an inverted standup! Hehe. CP's next big coaster will certainly be an inverted standup floorless dueling woodie with 10 inversions...it's so obvious! :)
Actually I've been reading rumors all over the place about this company or that one working on an inverted standup design...I guess we'll have to wait and see.
i can see trhe inverted standup cars in my mind...just take Raptor cars, remove the "seat" part, add foot holds that telescope up and down and there you have it. might be kind of neat. did you ever ride the swings at the playground standing up? kind of like that, maybe...
anyhoo, i'd like to seea big ol' woodie at CP next. i love 'em. doesn't even have to be the biggest or fastest...just the best.

"I think I scrambled my brain!!"
Hmm, a floorless, inverted, stand up would be interesting. I'm not sure how you would stand up without a floor. Maybe the ride could consistently travel so fast that you would stick to the wall of the car (like a rotor). I certainly hope that a ride like that would never have a roll back. :)
I obviously know nothing about trends, pattterns, or anything like that involved with CP building rides, but I'm hoping/predicting that the next coaster will be a floorless with tons of inversions or a launched coaster of some sort. Those are pretty cool because you can save the space it takes for a giant lift hill.
A dueling woodie like Gwazi!1!
Hey guys how about dueling Thrust-airs that fire at eachother and veer off at the last second? that would be cool.

HA HA HA, MELLENIUM FORCE, YEAH BUDDY!
Funphantom that is a cool idea...i think that with the limited space issues that CP is dealing with (without moving the parking lot) that a thrust air will be next...but it would have to break some records whatever records there are for thrust air coaster..........(reaches into pocket and pulls out two pennies and sets them on the counter)

please send money so I can go to Cedar Point
