SDC's 2008 Project

[Coaster]

Maybe not in that particular spot on Lake Silver but I think it would be very popular in the Grand Expo area. Are you talking about the Thunderhawk at WOF?

[sdcfan17]

yes, i'm going there for the haunt fest it is going to be cool i like the idea of bloodshed sounds scary, but anyway what about a sequioa adventure ride its kind of boring but would be pretty cool at the same time.

[Coaster]

Yeah Thunderhawk is fun. My friends and I rode it a couple times while Timberwolf was broken down. (It broke down as we were the next people to get on )

I don't know what a Sequioa Adventure is.

[sdcfan17]

go to google and type it in you will find it, its like a european rollercoaster its called a flying squrril coaster

[shavethewhales]

do you think a thunderhawk type of ride would do good??

Yeah, I said in anther thread that a large Huss ride like that could really hit the spot at SDC, just like TGS did.

By sequoia adventure, do you mean the S&S Screamin' Squirrel at Gardaland? Hmmmm, that thing has it's issues, discomfort and a boring experience being two of them. However, if fitted inside an ice house...

[Coaster]

It took one image from Google for me to realize, no that would not be a good ride at SDC. It'd stick out like a sore thumb. Belongs in a Six Flags.

[sdcfan17]

yeah, but you never know after all it is quite comapct and could be fun and they could theme it really good

[Coaster]

I still don't like it, not my type of ride.

[shavethewhales]

They don't have to be like Sequoia, they do offer custom layouts -> http://www.s-spower.com/elloco.html

It's pretty much S&S's answer to the G-figher, but I prefer Gerstauler's version far better.

[Coaster]

I like El Loco better but it looks pretty small. The Gerstauler looks bigger for some reason. Maybe that's just the theming of Mystery Mine though.

so has anybody heard any plans for whats coming next year i know its not going to be a coaster but it might be another thrill ride

[shavethewhales]

^Not yet. With the way it's been the last few years, one can hardly know for sure what the park is planning. After all, the Grand Expo originally was going to be in the Landing, a wild mouse almost took the waterboggin's place, and a small suspended coaster was almost built in place of Powderkeg. They're probably finalizing things now, but it probably won't be until late next month or even later that the announce anything. Wasn't TGS announced in November?

[Coaster]

I don't remember hearing about TGS until the offseason.

I was on a six flags st.louis fourm site and a guy said that he lived in springfeild and goes to sdc and six flags but he likes six flags better anyway he said that sdc was getting a tilt coaster soon with a powerfull thrill lift. you guys should check it out, go to sfstl.net then go to fourms then go to park disscussion then go to evil knevil coaster then go to page 5 its at the very bottom, tell me what you guys think of this

I've beent to the site wher they've posted a RCT3 simulation of a tilt coaster that would hypothetically be built in SDC.  My main question is, "why?" 

The thrill involved in a lift coaster is very simular to the coasters that are already present at SDC.  A woodie just seems too obvious.
