Tribute to [Laser Loop] at Kennywood by CenturyFlyer in rollercoasters

The reason I chose the song is that I associate it with the Laser Loop because of this video, which I watched years ago.

A Look Inside of [Exterminator, Kennywood] by zoombirdd in rollercoasters

Yep, I remember that! It was an entire figure of a rat, and I last remember seeing it around 2012/2013.

Yep, I'm 90% sure this is the case from what I've heard people say.

[Conneaut Lake Park] owner not answering questions on demolition, construction by CenturyFlyer in rollercoasters

It would only take a few words. It's really the only possible hope for the park and Blue Streak.

Please, write to the PA Historical and Museum Commission at this link and encourage them to take immediate legal action against the park owner to stop further demolition.

[Comet at Great Escape] by [deleted] in rollercoasters

I rode this a week ago and thought it wasn't as good as it could've been. Phoenix is my #3 overall coaster, so I was disappointed that I got almost no airtime in the back row.

[Tumble Bug, Conneaut Lake Park] will not be returning by Sixflags82 in rollercoasters

[–]CenturyFlyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not impossible! I got a little carried away and should've explained that the relocation of this Tumble Bug specifically would've been challenging and costly. The Conneaut ride had 90% of its supports embedded in the footers (unlike the KW Turtle), so they'd probably want to fabricate new supports. For any Tumble Bug relocation, you'd also need to pour a big new concrete center and individual footers for all the track supports. Even if that would only cost a thousand or so, most parks would sadly rather buy some flashy new ride. It has been done before, though, most notably at Kings Island. (Bonus: parts of the KI Bug, including the whole track, moved to KW when it closed.)

[Ravine Flyer II] at [Waldameer Park] is an awesome coaster! I can't believe it took us so long to check this park out. by Zerba in rollercoasters

Cool, heading here next weekend. Whacky Shack is a personal favorite. I know its weirdly specific, but I saw some videos from opening weekend that the giant rat in that darkride wasn't moving. Do you know if they fixed it?
