It looks cool. But sounds like it won't be here for a few years.

NO! TACKY.

they could've at least made it a full circuit and not a shuttle, but gotta start somewhere. and wouldn't it maintenance be very high say after about 5-10 years?

Now, that coaster just looks incomplete. Add a turnaround, a couple more airtime hills, and another turnaround, and it would be much better.

they do NOt need to start somewhere with this crap . they need to stop now..

lol...sooo jayman would you ride Boulder Dash or The Voyage if they had a launch instead of a lift, but the rest was the same?

[slosprint]

How could you possibly launch BDash? I don't think the terrain really allows for that lol.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Add an overbanked curve.

Slosprint, you've done well to again completely miss the very obvious point of my statement.

Be original... I'd say go for a corkscrew or a barrelroll!

Like in the original plans of the Voyage...

if they were a couple hours away, yes,(voyage is already off my wish list because of the robo strap down trains) but i wouldnt go out of my way for it. what would have to be done to the running gear and track to make the launch work would ruin what i would want from a wooden coaster. the rest would obviously NOT be the same , .considering kennywood and knoebels would cost not much more to see i'd skip them if that happened. .

Why would you skip Holiday world? Lol. It's a great park.

Look how RCCA messed up the loop,how would a corkscrew or a barrel roll come out?Ewwwwwwwwww!

They did not mess up the loop. Premier pretty much ruined Son of Beast and its poop layout.

I'm surte it is, but if i was left with a choice between a kennywood/knoeble's combo or holiday world i wouldn't think twice . it'd be nice to do both , but that may not happen ..

Okay lemme rephrase that,SOBs concept was awesome but it lacked in the execution and someone messed up so it would be awfull if they try other inversions for woodies.

^I think they should try to recreate Medusa at SFDK with a wood coaster lol that would work!

What about the Indiana Beach/ Holiday world combo?

5 good CCI's, Voyage, and a El loco coaster.

Enourmous Ammounts of Electrical Power + Really Hot Mags + Wood = A 24 seat BBQ that moves.
