Any insight as to why they started at SFOT? Just curious, really.

They should 'Kingda Ka' them all too, so no chance of a relocation.

For what it's worth, as an opening caveat to what I'm about to say, I do completely agree with the content of your post. You're absolutely right that great care needs to be taken, especially around potentially fatal conditions (thinking here the high-level differentiation between a nut allergy...

Would be just as at home in this thread, too: https://coasterforce.com/forums/threads/weird-wacky-strange-coaster-bits.27995/ :D

I do agree, but I also wonder from the other perspective. It's one of the older areas of the park (and second oldest coaster), and if they were going to re-imagine it (including replacing the coaster (and theming), which from memory is the main attraction and majority of the area), would it be...

This is true, but also this news came out the same week the ceasefire talks seemed to start so... just sayin' ;)

I wasn't a fan, so happier to see what they can do with the area that'll release. I thought it was rough and unexciting. The spiral lift, theming and mincing about at the top of the towers were the highlights. The 'coaster-y' bit was rubbish.

Great Adventure is laughably huge in comparison to the rest...! I presume that's mostly as a result of the Safari? :D Also makes you realise just how big CP is. I think the 'water on all sides' thing makes it feel smaller than it is. Impressive!

Moved the posts from Small News into this thread. Feels perhaps like it doesn't warrant it's own thread, but this seemed marginally cleaner than leaving it in Small News.

Almost as exclusive as the Nurburgring cred... :D

I knew this was going to be shut for my visit this year, so had already resigned to that, but it's incredible to hear it's being ripped less than 12 months later. What a **** up. Guess you get what you pay for...

I think just different interpretations of the post. I read it as: And then separate train of thought: Could just be a simple mis-understanding? @Rob Coasters - can you elaborate? :P
