Yes, and kudos to whoever that was because they definitely created the "Top Gun" element and then I even posted a screenshot from Top Gun saying it reminded me of that haha.

Well now... looks like it wasn't a complete loss after all. But to label those 22m Giant Loop installations as "coasters" is... bizarre. I'll have to reserve judgement for the pair of Justice League: Battle for Metropolis dark rides but if it's a facsimile of Justice League: Alien Invasion 3D over in Warner Bros. Movie World I'll be a happy camper. Looks like I was spot-on that Colossus would become a möbius loop & have 3,650ft of track removed. Fine by me...it'll still be the best coaster in the state regardless (the truth is sad sometimes). I'm more impressed with the alterations found on Wicked Cyclone. Despite being slightly shorter in height & length it looks like it really packs quite a wallop. Looking forward to everyone's written experiences on everything once they're open next year.

And changing classic and even historic rides like Colossus is also pretty sad.

Colossus was too heavily modified & bland to be warrant such an honor. At least it'll have a new life following the remodeling unlike poor Cyclone Racer. It was unnecessarily demolished to make way for an interchange after having been seen in thousands of theatrical releases & television episodes. Now THAT coaster was a "classic", "historic" & a damn crying shame.

Gabed, the layouts for the free spins have been out for a few years. What were you expecting? This actually looks slightly better than the stick layouts thru released.

I personally loved the Zacspin at SFMM So bravo.

[gabed]

I actually had no idea that the layout had been leaked. I've spent all my time keeping up with Fury and I haven't taken the time to keep up with Six Flags rumors.

[Edwardo]

It wasn't a 'leak'. The conceptual layouts were shown off at IAAPA a few years ago.

Hats off to six flags. The shuttle loops will be loved by the public.

Have you had one post that wasn't an obvious troll? What a sad, pathetic life you live.

Have you been on a schwartzkoft shuttle loop? They are nice ride which are inexpensive and crowds like. Good to see the concept coming back.

This is a shuttle loop:



This is basically what Six Flags is building:

Well that sucks.

It should provide some nice hang time nontheless.

[Jay]

My biggest takeaway from this is that now half of the Six Flags parks will have a Rocky Mountain creation. It's quickly becoming their trademark.

There was a mention in a news article of an exclusive deal between Six Flags and RMC for the hybrid coaster, which is unsurprising since there hasn't been one yet at a non-Six Flags park (I would have to think Cedar Point has been taking a hard look at them). I would be curious to know how long that exclusive deal lasts.

Not sure why Great Adventure tore down Rolling Thunder instead of going to RMC...

St. Louis has to be the most likely candidates left, right? The Boss, perhaps?

[Chris]

How much do these conversions usually run?

What about Outlaw Run?

Proof of concept.
