^The colors are pretty unique, I think.

The colors actually remind me of KD's Shockwave's original color scheme. That's a good thing, imo.

This addition is enough to get me back in the park next year so good job, Six Flags!

With new trains, I think this coaster could really be a hit at SFA.

I'm just glad to see that the world's first B&M will still live on.

There are some problems with the concept art, other than the need of smoothing.

It could be that since we've last seen a new B&M standup installed, the trains were redesigned. I see the bicycle seats and the part that goes near the waist.
"Next, we are going to solicit the children of strangers so that we can go on a ride designed for children. This is so I can post online and impress other people who are very good at procuring unfamiliar children in order to go on rides designed for children, and thus have a higher arbitrary number than me."

SFA Regular wrote:KDCOASTERFAN, I have a question. When Mark Shapiro & Dan Snyder were thrown off corporate, were there other members that left with them? That would explain why these ride relocations are still progress? If we have a new corporate management, maybe they thought it was cheaper to give us a B&M that was being removed, rather than buying a new one.

If people pack the park for this new attraction, I believe the new corporate management will give us a new coaster for 2013. It's possible that they are resuming the old master plan that they had for this park. You never know, next attraction could be the indoor ride we were suppose to get.


I don't know how many of the red zone staff were let go when the change in management took place but I highly doubt it that we'll see another coaster at the park so soon after this one.

Sadly I think that original site plan drawn up in 1999 by the original premier parks management team will not come to fruition,if it would've then we'd be seeing that 140 ft. tall,3,000ft long B&M standup that was originally planed for 2001 & not a relocated Iron wolf coaster from SFGRAM...still this may be a new beginning for a park that was long overdue for a major ride/coaster seeing as how every SF branded park currently in the chain has gotten mutliple coasters over the past ten years but this one.Right now I'm taking a wait & see approach to how SFI plans to upgrade the ride side of the park in the future before deciding if it would be worth visiting again.

Yummy! I just ate donkey!

Yay! The first B&M lives again! Hopefully it will run a little smoother in its new home, but I'm just glad a piece of history was saved! :b
Life is short..ENJOY the RIDE!!!!!!!

I don't think so...unless I'm driving by then as even the friends who I used to go to SFA with(who did the driving) won't return as even they grew tired of the park in favor of KD.

Now if they keep up the momentum of this addition & once again begin adding new rides to the ride side of the park(especially to replace what they lost over the years) then maybe,just maybe I might consider returning,of course it'd be suject to wether I get my liscense as well,which I hope to do within the next year.
