So you can now vote on what to rename Ninja at SFoG:

The theme seemed sort of.... offensive when I rode it so I guess this is good.
Maybe next season they'll give this horrible, horrible ride the Thunder Road treatment. :roll: :roll:

They did track work on a steel coaster and added better trains. I doubt it's going anywhere. No termite damage.

How in the world does a ride with a "theme" of a Ninja become offensive????

I don't like the name choices. They're so blah.



Anyway, lets fly across the waters to Dubai since everyone is acting like they're not over there building massive theme park in the emirate.

I personally never took offense to the Ninja name, but I’ve had to endure enough of Alan’s bad Asian impressions and egg roll jokes to know what he’s talking about lol.

My choice of names isn't in the list- @#$%@#$%#@ ;)

I will say, as awful as the ride was/is, it does have some of the best head choppers out there.

Here's the POV vid of Valravn from media day. I must say the pacing on the ride looks amazing especially after the MCBR compared to the other two dive machines in the USA.

Shout out to Invertalon for the pics from media day. https://www.facebook.com/Invertalon/

As we all know, Raptor was repainted this year and they also added the strobe light package like Fury's up the lift; Valravn have the same package except in the colors of red, off white and blue. The lighting around the ride itself and in the plaza are great. Valravn also have the seat lock monitor screen like Fury.

I must say the theme around the ride is awesome. The sign is incredible and the que line with the medieval wall surrounding it is a nice touch, it shouldn't be too hot with a wall like that and the shades they have over it.

I know we all have mixed feeling of him but shoutout to Robb for the day/night shots of the sign. I LOVE IT. That throne is everything and rather creative. I cant wait to see it in person in August.
