I wasd looking at the Official site and new rides and found.Image

It says on the internet...
On the Sky Rider, you’re the pilot as the planes rise 70 feet above Dollywood. There’s room for a co-pilot and either can control the moving rudders to move the wings, making every ride a one-of-kind experience for the entire family.


So I am wondering if you can snap on this. It could be a newer flyer ride. Sorry but this is semi-carowinds about the flyers

Kings Dominion has one of these as well. They're terrible. Luckily though, in Kings Dominion's case, they have the classic version as well. B)

That ride is more closely related our Flying Dutchman(73-84).

Not really. You couldn't control the original Flying Dutchman. They just spun around in a circle.

Ah, I thought it would be just like our flyer because it said something about moving rudders. Oh, I shall see next week. :D

You can't move the rudder much, and it's only thrill is the height.

They have those at Wild Adventures in Valdosta too and you can't snap on them, it's just cool to be up so high, as was said earlier. I thought it was pretty boring for the most part.

Some of the new rides at Dollywood were really odd choices...(Chance? L&T Systems?)

At least there is the Disko. :lol:

It looks like the County Fair is ment to seem like a rea fair.

^Be nice if Carowinds would make our Country Fair more like a fair instead of having all of those games!^

^ But isn't that like a real fair? They just need to get some real outgoing people to staff them and harrass guests walking by, and then it would be even more accurate. :P

But yeah, maybe some folks from Carowinds will check out the new County Fair section at Dollywood and get some ideas, since I know they have been known to go up there every now and then.
