Definatly IOA. PCW's theming sucks, though the rides (epecially the flats) are decent.

the flats are ok, the coasters suck, skyrider sucks, the woodies suck, the slc sucks, vortex is ok, dragon fire sucks, boomerang sucks! they all suck! sorry to diss the park but it sucks. Six Flags La Ronde isn't bad though.

Vortex is just "ok?" Its the best Suspended IMO there is. Sure, Big Bad Wolf is great, but the layout on Vortex seems like theres more substance. For me, BBW consists of one amazing part...obviously, the second drop.

i agree, although i have yet to go on vortex, bbw's only fun part is the drop. the rest is very shakey and dull. hell, i'd even prefer iron freaking dragon over bbw!

What? Have you even been to Wonderland? Do you even know how many flat rides there are at the park?
Don't bash something you havn't riden. Skyrider may be a Togo standup, but I think it is a wonderful ride. And don't say it is rough and bumpy, because unless you are a wet noodle, it is not bumpy at all!
I also agree with Real. Vortex is easily the best coaster at the park, and one of the best swinging suspended coasters out there.

PCW isnt the King of Flats for nothing :P

I feel bad for that park. Its just so out of place from the other chains and even from Paramount. The other parks have nice decent marquee rides. They have....Pigeon: The Ride (Speaking about the flyer)

Yeah lol. PCW is a fairly decent park, it is clean, friendly, has well kept rides (except for the woodies) and overall the park is very well maintained. I just wish Paramount would give pcw a roller coaster that is for once a unique ride and not some clone.
I look at other Paramount parks and they have neat and fun coasters like The Beast, FOF, Volcano..etc. What does PCW have to show off? A Vekoma SLC and a suspended clone of the one at PKI.
I'm happy that PCW is getting The Italian Job, it looks like a fun ride, but I wish Paramount would stop cloning their damn rides!
