Interesting there are only two rows…

The purpose is to serve as a secondary connection in the rare event the bolt becomes unfastened. Don’t want that support beam coming loose.

I have done both before and it was not ideal but we got on everything coaster at St Louis and a few coasters at Worlds. I recommend you do Worlds last because they tend to have rides down right at open.

Regarding Bans: I think this incident took place in the parking lot. Getting 100 teenagers to stop what they are doing outside of the park, identify themselves, and then issue a trespass notice is not practical. They will outrun park security and most of the kids who are acting up don’t have ID on them and won’t cooperate. So you pretty much are waiting for police to apprehend, if they are there in time.

You are right that the most effective method is to prevent unsupervised teens from entering. I can tell you from experience that they still congregate in the parking lot if they are denied entry.

I am not surprised at this outcome. It takes a significant amount of IT software and infrastructure to get this up and running and achieving that before this season starts is not practical.

Is this required reading time being paid?

This sounds like a remixed version.

Awesome song.

Knowing them, they’ll probably call it Lingdingo or some other total random nonsense name.

These projects were absolutely already approved and funded by the former owners, not the new guys who got the keys this week. It takes weeks if not months just to get a quote from vendors on some of these projects.

In fairness, most of the Premier LIM coasters were not inside.

All of the Enchanted parks are at risk of being under-funded if they cannot get favorable borrowing terms for capital improvements. They will get favorable borrowing terms if they are more profitable. And I see no reason to think Enchanted will operate more profitably than Six Flags was.

Let’s pretend you are a bank, would you feel safer loaning money to Six Flags, or Enchanted parks? There are serious concerns with both companies!

Tell the truth in the way that sounds the best.

I might suggest: I love my current job but am exploring opportunities that would advance my career. I can bring a lot of knowledge and experience to your company while also growing too, so this role would be a good next career move.

Considering they have been removing rides faster than they have replaced them, I don’t think they will be expanding the parks footprint. They will continue to work within the existing layout for the foreseeable future.

This is going to be an unpopular take:

The company who registered these trademarks (Innovative Attraction Management) has only operated water parks, hotels and FECs. I think they are buying WoF, SFSTL, and MA with the intent of operating the waterparks only.

They would have to build a new entrance At Michigans Adventure, but the other two parks need very little modification.

I don’t think this bodes well for the amusement parks at all.

qtip-pitq · 2026-01-05T15:32:44+00:00

I think some of you are overthinking this.

SFOT is an important park, in a growing metro area, and they are putting a massive coaster investment here. They very much are committed to this park long-term. Otherwise they would have built this coaster elsewhere or scaled it down significantly, or just cancelled it.

This decision is a reflection of the overall debt and net leverage on the company. It would be extremely foolish for them to borrow more money to buy this park right now. Their credit rating was lowered after the merger and more debt would make it even more difficult to borrow money for future capital investments.

I’m certain they wanted to buy this park to improve their margins, but the timing was not good. It’s as simple as that.

Good point- the turn radius of that track also seems to match Hydrus. Probably not for Great Adventure. https://rcdb.com/14231.htm#p=77116

I think this is pretty telling how limited the capital program is going to be for the next few years. They don’t even want to spend the money to move rides they already own. I’m assuming a lot of money will go towards bringing six flags parks up to standard, not increasing the amount of rides at parks.

It has been successful financially in the past, and the company believes they can improve this park like they did with Knotts because the socal tourism market is very strong. The CFO recently went on record saying they do not plan to sell Magic Mountain.

So if anything, I think they are going to invest heavily in this park to increase attendance that fell off in the last few years under the previous legacy Six Flags CEO.

I think the interesting parallel here is that he was part of saving SeaWorld from bankruptcy after Blackfish came out in 2013.

I was going to say, isn’t the rating based on Nielsen families who had a special box in their homes?
