Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk (SCBB) Discussion Thread

And there lies the problem with the Zipper, I have often thought how nice it would be to replace the capacity nightmare Rock O Plane with a Zipper but there are so many problems with that idea . . . the first being that the capacity of the Zipper isn't all that good either, and then there is the fact that there was never a park model of the Zipper made and the portable models have a rather large footprint for what they are as the trailer the ride lays down on sits behind the ride so the zipper is technically about as long as it is tall, and then there is the fact that Chance is no longer making the Zipper so a used one would bet he only option at this point, My pipe dream is for something extreme to show up at SCBB like a Top Scan but I know it will never happen, thinking realistically however I could see a KMG spinout working out well in Santa Cruz

Why do you think a Top Scan would never happen? The park used to have Typhoon, which was quite intense. Also, Fireball is pretty high up there on the intensity scale towards the end of the cycle.

Realistically, I think we'll see an Octotron within a few years, because it's already been installed down in Belmont Park. I rode the Octotron, and personally, I wasn't that impressed. It was a fun ride, but not very re-rideable. I don't think I would want it in my home park. It's kind of a novelty.

I don't think the top scan is a far fetched idea due to it's intensity I think it is because it seems to have a rather large footprint and they would essentially need two remove two rides to fit one in the way they have them jammed in there

Cliff Hanger is kind of "meh..." in my opinion.. and it's a nice space where it is... plus the ride is almost 10 ears old... (if it came out in 2003 don't remember)...
EDIT
Btw...
I recently saw one of Sally Corp's new rides... and I think the 'Walk should upgrade/face-lift Ghost Blasters to THIS:

Anyone agree?

^ Wow, that would be a pretty sweet facelift. Although, I could see the Boardwalk not even considering it because it's not nearly as family friendly as Ghost Blasters in its current form.

True... It might out-do the New Haunted Castle too. Everyone hates clowns.

Did it!


I was at the park a few days ago and saw the Crazy Surf in person, it really stuck out like a sore thumb. I really did not like the background carnival images. The ride itself looks like it might be an improvement over the old one.

Awesome thanks a lot!

Im looking forward to the new Crazy Surf, the OTSR were brutal on that ride. So the lap bars will be a huge improvement.
