    Universal's Epic Universe | Orlando USA | Theme Park

    I don’t think any of the areas are indoors (with the possible exception of the Wizarding World in the top right), but the walls and buildings are supposed to block sightlines to other sections of the park to create total immersion.

    Universal's Epic Universe | Orlando USA | Theme Park

    Dumb name, amazing-looking park!

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    My latest line of thinking is something along the lines of Intamin's Surfrider or Zamperla's Disk'O. Maybe B&M is trying to break into that compact coaster/flat ride market.

    Carowinds Adding Zamperla Attraction In 2020??

    I find that odd, because off the top of my head, all of the Zamperla attractions at Carowinds are located within Camp Snoopy. However, there is a small FEC in the northern part of Charlotte that has a few Zamperla rides (Frankie’s Fun Park), so it could be for them.

    Carowinds/RMC

    Hurler is probably not going anywhere for the foreseeable future. It’s fairly popular due to its location next to Fury (in 2017 and 2018, it was the fourth most-ridden attraction at the park behind the large B&M’s), and the park has been doing continuous maintenance on it by replacing sections...

    Energylandia | Zadra | RMC I-Box

    So are we just going to ignore the fact that the track was completed? https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=660649564437290&id=100014767562384

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    My pipe dream would be that Big Dipper Dive model they showcased a few years back, only extremely themed like some sort of cross between Tower of Terror and Mystery Mine.

    Best park on each continent?

    This poll seems extremely invalid due to the fact that it's only based on coaster collections and disregards the parks as a whole. No Disney or Universal parks etc. Carowinds is my home park and I wouldn't put it anywhere near the top. With that said, of the parks listed, I cast my vote for...

    Kings Dominion Removing Big Wave Bay!

    They actually added that trapdoor slide tower in 2015 before any of those parks added one.

    Universal IoA | Jurassic World VelociCoaster | Intamin Blitz | 2021

    Not only that, but postponing opening to 2021 allows them to open a new attraction each year at the resort. This year is Hagrid’s, next year is the Bourne stunt show, and Jurassic Coaster will follow. It also allows them enough time to potentially change JPRA into Jurassic World if the one at...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Ice Breaker | Premier Rides Custom Sky Rocket | 2022

    I think the ride actually does have a single inversion, though I think it’s more akin to a Stengel dive than an actual roll. At least that’s what Midway Mayhem has been reporting, and they’ve been ahead of other sites in terms of information.

    SeaWorld Orlando | Ice Breaker | Premier Rides Custom Sky Rocket | 2022

    Honestly, I think it looks too thrilling for that gap. I think something like Wavebreaker or Manta in San Diego would have filled the void better. Harder to market though I suppose.

    Kings Island | Orion | B&M Giga Coaster

    I would love for them to copy Fenix's color scheme with brown supports, but I don't think they're going with brown for a space theme.

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    I’m personally hoping for them to announce it between June 12 and 14 at the Asian IAAPA expo, but I would bet on any new model being announced closer to November. As far as the riding position in @Kw6sTheater’s concept is concerned, it’s not like something similar has never been attempted...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    I just don’t know what B&M could do to stand out in the market for water coasters. Mack is fairly reliable in that regard and Intamin is more than willing to break records/push the limits. I still think @Kws6Theater’s prediction is the most accurate. B&M seem to lean more towards slightly...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    I don’t think Alton would be the first to install it just because of the similarities to Galactica, but as a concept, I think your interpretation of it is spot-on. The boarding is the thing that confuses me though. I’m assuming riders would board similar to a Volare, but lower to the track...
